I hurried up the stairs once I got in I made sure to come back back before nightfall,I had tried to get candince to come home with me for the night cause of the recent happenings here at home but she waved my fears off saying I was just an introvert who always staying at home has started getting to me. candince is my best friend iev known her since I turned six at the community park she was a pleasant Little girl. As I started up the stairs I wished I will be spared today and won't have to witness the horror my house brings to me am Dora the only daughter of the Jeffersons' today I turned 16 but dad and mom weren't here to celebrate with me,they where out of town for business,so my birthday will be celebrated tomorrow morning cause they will be back to night . I ev been seeing strange things in the house lately most times I always see a black tall figure run past me but each time I turned it will be gone, sometimes I see shadows but when I look around me I don't see what's casting the shadows and what gives me the chills are the shrill cries I hear at night each time am in my bedroom ready to sleep,these why the reasons why I wanted candince to spend the night with me cause all the maids slept in their quarters I didn't want to tell anyone this in case they thought I was loosing my head just like candince did. Just before I could finish my thoughts I saw a thick mist covering the end of the stairs then I lost my balance and fell,a heavy wind blew and I could here thunder claps out side and saw lightening struck as well just then I heard the shrill cries again I have never heard them in the afternoon that's when I saw the tall dark black figure it was so scary but I couldn't get myself to take my eyes off it it wore an all black long gown flowing around him he looked like the clothe was been worn on dried bones,it had deep snuck in eyes,which where death to look into they had a field red colour the figure had three horns on it's skull one on each side and another in the middle it had live worms coming out from the eyes I couldn't take my eyes off untill it dissapperd that when my strength found me again and I ran up the stairs into my room shutting it I jumped on the bed sweating all over I hid myself under the duvet shaking like a tried leaf in a middle of a forest till I slept off. I heard a knock on the door and a head popped through the door after I opened it,it was the nanny whom I called "Nana"."good morning Nana"I greeted "good morning Dora,you slept so early last night you didn't have supper,what Happened"?she asked but seeing I wasn't going to answer she continued"your parents are back they came back after the storm last night,they will see you when they are up"she said and left Oh my goodness mom and dad are back there is so much I have to tell them I missed them so much I thought as I rushed out of the room ignoring Nana's words of letting them sleep,I rushed off to their room and entered without knocking but the sight I met was one I will always remember there was mom lying awkwardly on the bed with her head hanging loosely around her neck with many armies of ants all over her body more ants than iev ever seen my whole life her eyes were no longer there and in place of them where ants coming in and our of the two holes where her eyes used to be and there was dad on the floor by their bathroom door instead of ants he had two giant spiders on his body each spider seemed to have a piece of dad one had his hand and the other had a torn his stomach and was feeding on his intestines I couldn't take it anymore I screamed so loud the next thing I didn't know what happened and got all dark. Three years later Dora's POV today marked my 19th but I was in no mood to celebrate all I know is this day was cursed,ever since my parents died every birthday of mine came with bad news last one my aunt Clara slipped in her bathroom and died,the day was gloomy earlier on Nana tried to cheer me up by singing me a birthday song but I got upset and threw a pillow at her telling her to leave my room at once,now that I think about it I feel so sorry for the old lady she's been nothing but nice to me,. Now that my parents where no more all their assets where automatically mine now cause I was their only surviving relative and their only surviving child as well,"meow"I heard catty my cat crying and I rushed to see where it was and there I found my surprise in my closet,there was catty lying dead on the my pile of dirty laundry with blood all over it with two giant spiders trying to feed on him,iev never seen spiders since the incident with my parents nana made sure of that,I was jerked out of my thoughts by a shrill yet scary voice,"miss Dora Jefferson we get to meet again" what??? oh my God did I just hear that spider speak to me?
