As he approached the mysterious mansion, the boy looked at the gray trees that looked very thirsty and empty inside. Like dead. He also noticed a large garden nearby with numerous white flowers and black stems. From a distance, against the background of the dark world around them, they looked as if they were levitating. After some thought, they approached the front door, which was, unsurprisingly, white like the rest of the house.
- The most important thing is not to panic. Sally is a really nice guy, just give him a chance and treat him like a person you know - Abi replied, a little concerned.
As the girl slowly opened the door, the boy could finally see the apartment from the inside. It wasn't anything very unusual. A little disappointingly, he was very ordinary. It consisted of two floors. On the first floor there was a living room with a large carpet and a huge shelf for numerous books. There was a huge fireplace next to the wall and a blank black painting above it. To the left was probably the kitchen, which looked very empty except for a table and a refrigerator. Of course, everything was painted in white, gray and black colors, because how else could it be?
- Sally! Come here quickly! - girl screamed.
- Give me a moment. I just got up, compared to you - replied a voice from the second floor.
After a while, the main characters began to hear footsteps coming from the stairs. The boy began to feel a strange feeling of pressure and cold. He didn't know what awaited him. Suddenly, a strange figure wrapped in a gray scarf started coming down the stairs. In places, you could see a white shirt hiding under the folds of the strange material. Sally also seemed to be a very tall person. It was over 2 meters high and barely fit through the door. Only when he walked straight into the living room did the terrified boy finally see his host's face. He had a pale, human skull without eyes and round glasses that could be compared to grandma's.
- What is it about? - he asked Sally when he suddenly noticed Abi, who was holding the main character's hand
- Oh my. Who is this person?
- This is my newfound friend. When I went for a walk, I saw him lying on the ground. He looked like he needed help, so I approached him and somehow we became friends.
The boy just listened and looked silently at the empty eyes of the skeleton. He didn't know what to say or how to react.
- My god, Abi. I've told you so many times not to talk to strangers when you leave the house without my supervision.
- I'm sorry, but just look at him. It seems fine after all.
- We'll see - Sally straightened up and looked deeply at the boy - Who are you?
The main character stood dumbfounded. What's going on? Is this a dream? What this is about? He had so many questions he couldn't answer. Looking at his host, he slowly began to lose his mind. He felt very sick. Sweat was pouring out of him from the inside. He needed something, but he didn't know what. Suddenly, in the empty eye sockets, he saw familiar strange figures that quickly spread different colors to everything around him. I think he was fainting. He was definitely fainting. The colors mixed with reality, and now he didn't know what was happening, but surprisingly he knew this feeling. He began to remember strange memories of holding a large needle, which he then inserted into his vein. When he tried to look at Sally's whole face again with horror, he was gone. All he saw was an adult person with vodka in his hand.
-Where have you been? - said man.
