Death of Helen
By: DKorley
CHAPTER 3
Izzy has gone back to Cairo and has married there; Jonathan had all his fortune up again for the sake of his family and had a big house of his own. Miranda and Allan graduated from school and got married. Evy and Ardeth were now married and have three kids to take care of now, Ardeth and Alex have become best friends: they train together and go out a lot. Helen is still torturing her big brother Alex, Evy had a third child and it was a boy she named Richard which is long for Rick. Alex and his friend Dawn were at the fountain talking. Evy was in the kitchen and Helen entered.
"Hey mum."
"Hello there." Helen sat on the chair and then began to snicker; Evy had known she might have seen Alex do something.
"What did he do this time?" she asked.
"You know, I've always thought Alex would never get a girl…" Evy gaped turning and seeing Helen nod.
"Yep, he's doing kissy face with Dawn." Helen sighed; there was silence for a moment." Mum when do I get a boyfriend, I can't wait any longer." She whined.
"Oh you can wait a lot longer missy." Evy laughed.
"No fair." Helen whined playfully.
"Yes fair." Evy went to her and tickled her, the two were very close. It reminded Evy of when she was with her mother. They stopped when they heard a noise…
"Oh no don't tell me he's at it again!" Evy and Helen ran in the living room seeing Ardeth covered in baby food and Rick laughing in his high chair. Evy and Helen laughed out loud and Ardeth wiped his face.
"This is not funny." He said smiling a bit." You feed him; he keeps on throwing the food at me."
"No you do it." Evy said laughing; he sighed and looked at Rick a little scared. Rick laughed quietly looking at his father.
"Just don't do that again." Ardeth muttered.
"Okay." The toddler said in his baby voice.
Alex came back in the house smiling; everyone looked at him while he went up the stairs. Ardeth looked at Evy.
"What's with him?"
"Well Helen has told me some news; I think he's got a girlfriend." Ardeth looked at Helen who nodded. Then he received a food shot from his son again.
"Let me feed him." Evy said.
Evy went to sit next to Ardeth and began feeding Rick; Helen went upstairs to Alex's room.
"What?" he asked.
"I saw you kiss Dawn." She said.
"So?"
"I never thought you would get a girl."
"I can get a girl, I'm popular in school!" he said sitting up from his bed.
"Yeah? What about that girl Lily who slapped you on the face." Helen smiled, she loved doing this.
"W-well…" Alex stopped; he came up with a good story to scare Helen. "Helen, remember that time you asked me why I put some of my things under the bed?"
"Yes…why?" Alex motioned her to come and sit next to him.
"Ever heard of the boogeyman?"
Evy and Ardeth jumped when Helen came down the stairs screaming, they soon shook their heads
When they heard Alex laughing behind. At night Evy sent her daughter and sons to sleep, she sighed smiling at Helen's sleepingface as she slept, she reminded Evy so much of her sister. She got up from Helen's bed and went to hers and Ardeth's room, she saw him fast asleep she then decided to change into her higtgown not knowing Ardeth was watching her. She slipped into bed with him and gasp a little when he had grabbed her waist pulling her close.
"Their sleeping?"
" It took a lot of hours sending Rick to sleep." she sighed and turned to him, they smiled at eachother lovingly and Ardeth tuck her wavy hair back kissing her then pulling back.
"Something's wrong?" he asked unexpectedly, Evy sighed looking at him sadly.
"It's just that...since my sister's death something has been troubling me a lot." She answered.
"Like what?" he asked.
"I remeber the police saying that she killed herself...she wouldn't do that, I mean me and Johnathan..all of us, we were so close. When something was bothering her she would always tell us. She wouldn't hesitate." Evy sighed sadly.
"Maybe she didn't kill herself." Ardeth said.
"What?" Ardeth sighed.
"Alex showed his homework to me...I think you should ask him tommorow." he said sternly.
"What does his homework have to do with Helen?" she asked confused.
"Alex was to do a report about some newspapers, old ones...I saw her name and I didn't read more. Because Rick is mention to have been in the same house she did live in." he said.
Evy gasped, shocked. She and Ardeth both slept peacefully, not knowing that Helen wasn't asleep.
Helen had woked up again from her sleep, she sighed happily when Alex admitted he was lying about the boogeyman story. She laid back on her pillow in the dark until she heard a sound. She looked around and jumped when she heard a familiar tune.
Her music box her father gave her was playing, she widened her eyes. She felt something crawling on the floor and slowly went and looked down from the edge of her bed: she was curious and she hated it. She had it from her mother, Helen gasped when she saw a black shade appearing from under her bed, she sat back at her pillow afraid. She stared at her music bow which was playing, and noticed a shadow appearing from behind rising up.
The next morning was Saturday, the Ardeth and the kids went out to the fountain splashing water at eachother and he was careful not to let Rick climb in. Helen has been acting strange lately, Evy noticed that, she never said a word at breakfast. Evy sighed looked at her sitting on the fountain edge looking blank, she was pale. Evy turn from the window and began reading the newspapers of Alex.
1898
In Ireland a a deserted house was rebuilt, a wealthy family moved in to have a normal life until on April 22nd. Officers entered the home to find a grisly sight were all five family members were found killed, how? No one has found out, the victims were identified as Victoria Stefanosky who was 16 years of age, Stephan Stefanosky aged 44, Catherine Stefanosky 38, Harold Stefanosky 12, and a little girl by the name of Julia who has been suspected to have been strange during the days the family lived in the house. Only one survived by the name Cecilia who was 5 years old, she does not remember the incident that happened in the house.
Evy clamped her hand to her mouth as she read the othe newspapers which said the same things about the house. People died in there and no one found out, she stopped at Rick's( the other one) story and read:
1912
Another death has been found at the house in Ireland, four family members were found dead in there. The only one who survived was eleven year old Richard O'connell who was found in the woods surrounding the house. He is now in the hospital not remebering anything about his family's death.
Evy had tears falling down her eyes, she stopped upon her sister's story and then slowly she read:
1910
Sadly another death was found in the Ireland house, a nineteen year old girl by the name of Helen Carnarhan ws found dead. She was reported to have commited suicide when she was found in the closet of the home, her husband was devastated but told officers that she hadn't commited suicide. The house was haunted, it contained very terrifying things. He was quickly sent to a phychiatric ward days later when he had gotten worse.
Evy sobbed, Ardeth came in feeling guilty about latting her read those stories. He came and hugged her tightly with the children watching them, Alex carried his brother Rick and took Helen's hand and sent them upstairs to play a board game. Ardeth kissed Evy's forehea as she cried on him.
