And after receiving a slap from my Mama, I was asked to do a lot of house chores.When I completely sobered up was when I realized that the reason why my parents are annoyed is as a result of the fact that I woke up at half past nine. 'Good one Scarlett. Keep getting yourself in trouble.' I mumble within myself before eventually continuing my chores.My Mama has given me an offer that I shouldn't eat until tomorrow, and currently, I don't plan on going against her order."So what exactly made you wake up by this time today?" Addison asked.He's currently in the kitchen dishing his lunch.My Mom, Dad, and likewise my baby sister have all had lunch except for Addison.Well! I didn't plan on eating anything so I'm all good."The usual," I mumble, as I continue to watch the dirty dishes.I do tell my brother about the guy I usually see in my dream, and my brother is the one who has urged me to try to speak up whenever I see the person.It's crazy that my brother doesn't see me as a crazy

After I have successfully offloaded all my belongings... My parents waved at me and drove off.'Just like that!'"Good evening sir." I greeted my husband whose name I no longer remember."Ohh, honey! Please just call me with any pet name of your choice okay. I don't mind at all." He said while smiling wide at me.If only he's aware that the pet name which I have in store for him is none other than 'Jerk!'"Alright!" I mumble, not wanting to get in trouble.He helped me to carry my belongings inside his house, and then I figured out that he has a lot of visitors in the sitting room."Guy's! This is Scarlett, my wife." He said to introduce me to his visitors.I felt like an individual who has just been thrown into a lion's den.I forced a smile and waved them slightly. What else can I do if not waving?"Alright! Go and freshen up because I know you must be exhausted from the long trip." My..... Well! my husband said.I don't know why he's being kind to me, but for now, I'll just play al

"Arrhhhh" I screamed, but couldn't pull away from the skeleton.Right in front of my eyes, I saw the skeleton having flesh.I mean real-life flesh.I tried pushing him away but still to no avail.My blood was all drained. Well! This is it.Even though I told myself I don't mind getting killed by wild animals..... The truth is I lied.Getting killed by a wild animal isn't a death I wish for, and now..... A skeleton is trying to kill me.I know that if I die then legend would have it that there was a girl who ran into the woods and got bitten by a skeleton.Perhaps! Who knows, my head might eventually end up in a museum.Is my death worth it?The hot stream of tears flowed down from my eyes as I finally gave up.Giving up the ghost isn't a bad thing I guess..... Besides, I can finally leave this miserable Earth that's filled with wicked humans.Even though my eyes are still closed, I didn't die.'Is my spirit not supposed to leave my body already?' I asked myself and couldn't answer.Sl

As I was about to jump out of the window, I suddenly heard Orlan's voice."Boom!" He shouted, with a deep voice that made my heart jump out of my chest.I freak out and find myself falling backward."Were you trying to run?" He asked, and it seems that he was amused about what had just happened to me."Did you always do that?" I asked while placing my hands on my chest, to stable my breathing."I don't. I just find it amusing to do that around you." He uttered, which caused me to arch my brows. "I mean doing that around you just feels normal." He tries to explain himself."Why didn't you use the door?" I asked him because I was expecting him to use the door."I don't know!" Came his reply. "Do you still want to leave or do you care to have lunch?""I want to leave." I declare, before making my way towards the door.I'm expecting him to stop me but he didn't.I held the door handle, holding my breath as I waited for him to stop me but he still didn't.I turn around and gaze at him.Did

I continued to hit my fist on the door and suddenly the door opened.I was excited, thinking that that devil of a guy who is known as Orlan has decided to change his mind not to lock me up because he's scared of what I'm going to do to him.Unfortunately! The person that opens the door is one of Orlan's men, and I bet he's not a human either.He isn't huge like the other men that are safeguarding the entrance of the door.This man, in particular, has coffee brown eyes that seem to be reading my inner thoughts and his hair is black mixed with dark brown."Hi! you are not supposed to leave this house, so I hope you don't make trouble for me.....". His voice trailed. "Don't leave!" He added, this time he sounded authoritative.I swallow my saliva hard, not wanting to argue with him.He seems human, but he exhibits a cold aure.He made his way towards the window and then he fully shot the window close while using a key.I swallow harder and stare at him until he finally completes his miss
