After having a wonderful time with my friends the next day, we all had to go home and go to sleep. We had spoken again about my grandad being the man with his mouth full of blood and I told them about my grandad being so happy when he spoke about his wife and how it was too absurd that he was the blood man. On the way home, I wondered what drove those people crazy and who the man with his mouth full of blood was.
On getting home, I bid goodnight to grandad and went to bed. I thought about what Zoe said, it couldn't be my grandad, could it?
In the middle of the night, I woke up. I heard some movement downstairs and then a shrill scream followed by some more shrieks and screams. I got so scared. I put the blanket over my head as if it would protect me. Then I heard someone coming up the stairs, I tightened my fingers around the blanket. Then I heard my door creak open, I slowly lifted a teeny tiny bit of my blanket to see who it was.
It was the man with his mouth full of blood and his eyes were glowing....... It was my grandad
I screamed as loud as I could
“What happened, why are you screaming? ” my grandad asked turning on the lights
I just stared at him as if expecting him to come running towards me and trying to eat my brain.
“You.... just.....had....your......blood......glow..ing... ” I kept blabbering until my grandad came and sat right beside me, I stopped abruptly. I stared at him the whole time while he was trying to comfort me.
My head was spinning and I was super confused, my grandad had opened my bedroom door and walked in with his mouth full of blood and his eyes glowing. The next minute he was beside me, trying to comfort me as if I had a nightmare, maybe it was a nightmare. I couldn't make out anything right now so I said I was feeling better even though it was the complete opposite and he went to sleep... So he said
The next morning, I got up from my bed and went downstairs, grandad was sitting there, no tea, no newspaper. I slowly walked towards his direction, while walking, I stepped on a chip I was eating a few days ago.
My grandad immediately looked towards the sound, and looked at me, his eyes glowing. Then his neck snapped back and he looked around, as if he was here for the first time, then his eyes fell on me. I slowly backed up a bit and all he said was
“How was your sleep? ”
I just looked at him, how could he forget what happened last night?
“It was alright, ”I replied
“Good, so what's your plan for today? ”he asked while making his tea.
“I am going to the park with my friends, ”I said
“Okay, have fun ”he said plainly
I so need to leave this place.... I needed to meet my friends too and tell them about my“nightmare”.
“Oh my God, ”Cynthia said after she heard what happened last night
“I knew it, all the rumors were true about your grandad”she added
“Forget that, are you okay? ”Sophia asked
“I'm fine I guess”I said shrugging “just a little shaken up ”I added
“You should go back to town as soon as you can, ”Zoe said
“I can't, my mom said I'm supposed to stay here for a few more days”I said
“OK, but stay away from him as much as possible, ”they all said
“Hey, it doesn't have to be true, could be a nightmare as well”I replied, finding that very hard to believe, I was trying to convince myself.
They all gave me a look which was pretty obvious to what they believed. I stayed behind not wanting to go back to that house.
It got quite late while we were chatting and I said goodbye and left. Once I got home, I went to the dining where grandad had made dinner, but he was nowhere to be seen.
God knows what he used in preparing this
I ate it anyway, what? It's food, who says no to food, not even my grandad could stop me from eating and afterwards, I went to bed. I stayed up all night, expecting my grandad to come crashing through the door, his mouth with blood and his eyes glowing. I had my phone right next to me so I could record it if he did it again and send to my mom. I kept on waiting, nothing came. My tiredness slowly gave way and I fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up the next morning, I quickly went to his room and asked what has been on my mind ever since
“Grandad, can I go back to the city now? ”
“Why, is something wrong? ”he asked
“No, I'm just feeling home sick ” I couldn't come up with any other excuses
“If that's the case, I'll talk to your mom, ”he said
What did he mean by ‘if that's the case’? Was he expecting me to say something else?
I went back to my room remembering to lock the door.... There's still a lot of things I wish to do with my life that I haven't done.
After a few hours, grandad called and I went to see him
“Alright, your mom said that you can drive back tomorrow morning ”he said
“Okay, thanks ”I said
I was turning to go when he asked
“Are you sure you're feeling home sick? ”
“Yes, why? ”I asked suspiciously
“Just asking ”he shrugged
“Okay bye”I said
As I walked out, I thought about why he was asking me questions like that. Maybe he knew that he walked in my bedroom with his mouth full of blood and his eyes glowing, maybe not. All I knew was I needed to get away from him fast. I had a really bad feeling about him now.
When I met my friends, I told them that I was leaving the following morning. They all were a bit shocked, sad and mournful, even though they knew that their friend had to leave sometime and it was for her own good. Suddenly, even I felt like crying, over the weeks, they had become my best friends, even better than the ones I had in the city. My weeks here would have been miserable if it wasn't for them. I promised that this would not be the last time we'd be seeing each other and we would keep in touch and talk often."Does your grandad know you're leaving the following morning? " Zoe asked"Yes, why? " I replied"What if he does something to you this night? " Sophia asked "you know, since you'll soon leave" she added"I better be careful " I replied.The only thought I had in my head to prevent me from being scared was 'he can't harm you, you're his granddaughter '. It really helped tho'
“Luna, what's the matter, why're you crying?,”my mom asked coming into my room.When I got home from the mall, my mom had tried starting a conversation with me but my mind was too blank to listen to whatever she was saying and when she had asked what was wrong, I quickly ran up to my room as more tears were threatening to spill.“Uhm----listen dear, whatever it is, you have to find a way to deal with it because you're starting school tomorrow ” my mum addedOh shit! I completely forgot I'm going back to that hell hole. Can't life get any better?“I'll leave you now to deal with whatever you have to deal with ” she said.How I wish you knew it was your oh-so lovely dad that started this mess am going through.“The hell I will” I exclaimed. I'll definitely deal with grandad. My mum looked shocked before shrugging and leaving th
The screaming banshee did it's work again and I woke up. What I saw at the door was shocking and something I never want to remember. Jenny stood at the door staring directly at me with her arms crossed.“You're not good at running ” she said “but that's not my problem ” she added.“Uh--- what're you talking about? ” I asked.“I thought you were the smart one, figure it out ” she said turning around to leave but not before saying “oh your grandpa said Hi”.And that people is certainly not how I want my day to begin.While having my bath, I remembered that during the night, my nightmares kept repeating itself. Jenny digging her finger nails into my chest and dragging out my heart while I kept on running which I think made her say this morning that I wasn't good at running.If that wasn't why she said that, wha
I woke up abruptly with sweat on my forehead as I ran into the bathroom to empty my bowels. While doing that, I sensed movement behind me and something brushed my back. I shot up instantly but no-one was there.I sighed, turning around to flush the toilet bowl. My nightmares were repeating itself and they were getting worse. I was always waking up in the middle of the night in cold sweat to empty my dinner in the toilet bowl, leaving a bitter taste behind. It was like my dreams were haunted, which of course they were and they always made me so weak and frailI got back into the room and I realized that Rebecca wasn't on the bed, I frowned as I got out of the room quietly and tiptoed down the stairs, avoiding all the parts of the stairs that creaked.I felt a bit cold as I saw Grandad's favorite chair in the living room and what was worse was the fact that Rebecca was sitting on it, her eyes closed
When I got home, the house was empty. Finally, some peace and quietness.I planned to hurriedly have my bath, eat and sleep before my aunt and her daughter comes home.As I was in the bathroom showering, a voice came from the drain whispering :"I see you"I ran out of the bathroom as fast as my legs could carry me, threw on a baggy shirt and ran out of the house without thinking. I didn't know where I was running to but I needed to run away from whosoever was seeing me in the bathroom.When I slowed down to take a look at my surroundings after running for a while, I realized I was in the woods and I decided to go back home or maybe even go to Lily's house if I'm too scared to go to my own house. But there was a problem, I didn't know my way out of here.I began walking, I didn't know where I was going but I just kept on wal
“Are you sure this is okay?” I asked as we stood in front of the house where the party had already started.“Yeah, now stop asking questions and let's partyyyy” Lily replied linking arms with me and dragging me in.I was really enjoying myself, so far there wasn't any horrible experience and I was lightheaded. It made me take my mind off things.I decided to look around and in the process, my eyes caught something at the window and I walked over to it. Looking out the window, I saw someone at a corner of the street holding up a balloon, staring directly at me!All the street lights were turned off and the only one on was the one directly above the person staring at me. The person had on the mask of a clown and held up a sign. On the sign read:‘I see you ’In shock and fright I quickly pulled
As I walked into the house, Rebecca was coming down the stairs and she halted immediately she saw me, a look of disgust on her face.What did I expect?But for a second there, I saw a look of concern but it was gone like it wasn't even there.The only person close to me right now that was alive was my mom and she had gone MIA, I had no idea where she was and we've not even spoken for a week now. I decided not to call her since she didn't call or text either. Maybe I wasn't important to her after all, I'm ALONE!"You look like shit" Rebecca said, her face twisted in disgust."Good morning to you too" I said as I smiled and walked past her."So who was it this time?" She asked making me stop.I knew I wasn't going to go back to my room in peace. This bitch was going to stop me.I rolled my eyes and turned around before replying her.
“Mom?” I called and she looked up at me weakly. Her hands were tied up to the ceiling and her mouth was covered, she was sweating and out of breath and she looked so weak.If granddad hadn't killed her, she would've died anyways because there was shortage of oxygen in this place. I wonder how long she's even been here.I walked towards her and she winced when I removed the tape over her mouth then I hugged her as tears poured from my eyes.“L-Luna.” She stuttered. “Y--ou h-ha-have to go, or he'll k-kill y-you,” she said weakly as tears ran down her face.“Mom, granddad was possessed but he's okay now, we bro--”“We?” She asked cutting me off.“Bec and I,” I answered.“How about Jenny?” She asked “she's dangerous” she a
