Entry 18 – October 23, 2012
Today was kinda crazy. I had some appointments and other things that I had to do today. I guess my mom wanted to get them all out of the way before the weekend. With that said, I was away from my house for most of the day. Because I was gone for so long, I decided I definitely had to go up to the tree-house tonight. I went to my backyard when it was about to get dark. I walked up to the tree with the ladder on it and was shocked for a moment. There were scratch marks on the tree. My jaw was on the ground. These marks had to be from the creature. They were huge! I started to investigate a bit more. The marks didn't go up the whole tree, they stopped right under the door of my tree-house. I climbed up the ladder and noticed that the door was opened (I say door, but it's more of a hatch). Although, everything in the room was as it was when I left it. I was relived at this sight. This I was gonna have to mention to the creature. I think this was another "spying" attempt or something. Why would it look in my tree-house? Was it looking for something in particular? I guess since everything was still in order that it wasn't looking for an object. When it got dark, the creature came back to greet me. I went out on the deck and greeted it as well. I didn't mention the marks immediately, but when I did, I could tell it wasn't happy about it. It gave a low pitched, sad sound. I then told it I wasn't mad about it and that it just scared me. It sounded happy that I wasn't upset about the scratches. I asked it to not scare me like that again. It sounded like it was in agreement. I kept thinking to myself reasons why the creature would look in my tree-house in the first place. I guess it's not a big deal. None of my stuff was broken or even moved for that fact. Maybe it was just curious of what my tree-house looked like from the inside. It has seen me walk out of there lots of times, so maybe it just wanted a look at the interior. If that was the case, I would just let it inside (that's if it could fit inside of course). I still feel like I'm talking to a ghost voice sometimes. I have a better idea of what the creature looks like than when I started out. I just want the full idea, the knowledge of what it really looks like. I still need to talk to the creature about seeing it during the day. I just need to plan out how I would say it.
