Halloween is coming soon. They passed people who were vying to decorate their houses in the most frightening horror setting possible. Some ghosts and mummies are attached to their yards. Also, various kinds of knick-knacks add to the spooky impression.Emily was fast asleep in the backseat with her teddy bear when they arrived. Andrew instructed the cargo officers as to where to put Isabelle's belongings. Meanwhile, Isabelle moved Emily from the car to the first-floor room.No bed. Just an ordinary mattress that she used to lay Emily down for the time being. All items have entered the house. A cargo officer handed Isabelle a piece of paper and she signed it. State that the goods have arrived at their destination in good condition. They left after Isabelle finished paying for them.The whole place is still very messy. Isabelle thought about doubting it later."Isabelle, I have to go now. I have work to finish. My project has to be finished next week. Is it okay for you?""Yeah, sure! It
Today Mary came back. Since most of the house had been cleaned, it didn't take long to clean up the rest. At 10.35 AM she had finished all the work. After Isabelle paid her, Mary said goodbye to go home.Halloween night is getting closer. All the houses in the neighborhood have decorated their yards and households with horror Halloween decorations. Of course, Isabelle didn't want to miss this moment. After all, it's Emily's first Halloween without her dad."Honey, hurry up and finish your breakfast. We have to go to the shop for Halloween supplies," Isabelle said as she walked up the stairs.Emily was still chewing the ingredients in front of the television casually. Sometimes it is very difficult to manage.Isabelle changed her clothes and used makeup. Put the cell phone and some stuff into the bag, then back to the stairs. While Emily is still there in the same position."Honey, come on! Hurry up a little."Emily turned to Isabelle. She quickly finished her cereal. Wiping her mouth w
Isabelle asked one of the salespeople to remove the red riding hood costume from the mannequin and put it on the trolley. She asked Emily to look for something else in the back, but Emily refused."So, you want to stay here?""I need to get something in here, Mom," Emily said without looking at her mother."Alright. If you need something, I'm on the back side.""Ok!"Isabelle pushed the trolley to the back of the shop. The further she went, the lonelier it got in here.There is only an old woman. She picked up some items and put them in the cart. Then just walked away, leaving Isabelle alone. Being in this hallway with these spooky dolls staring at it feels scary. It was as if they were spying on Isabelle. Seeing everything Isabelle does.Terrifying.She looked through the shelves, hoping something would interest her. When looking at each shelf, her eyes fell on a board game called Ouija Board. On the box, it says, "Special summoning board game". There are some rules written on the bac
Isabelle had just come down the stairs when the doorbell rang. She walked away smiling, sure that it was Andrew. But she was a little doubtful because she didn't hear the roar of a car engine that stopped in front of the house.Isabelle shook off the bad thoughts and quickly opened the door. Sure enough, there was nobody there. She frowned.Quiet.The Halloween event hasn't started yet. There was no one outside the house."Mom?"Isabelle was taken aback. She looked back and saw Emily standing behind her.“Oh, geez. You surprised me, honey. Have any of the kids played trick or treat yet?”Isabelle smiled, "Not yet.""Then why did you open the door?"“I heard bells ringing. So, I thought it was Andrew.”“Why did he come here? Did you invite him?”“No. He wanted to come here by himself.”Emily snorted in annoyance and walked towards the dining table. Seeing her daughter's expression, Isabelle felt strange."Hey, what's going on? You seem to dislike him.”Emily didn't answer. She took a gr
Isabelle came into the room smiling. She did not feel very happy with Andrew's presence today. Regardless of Emily's attitude which is quite annoying.Night's getting late. The time is already 12.04 PM. Isabelle still couldn't sleep even though she tried to sleep. Her mind drifted, thinking about many things. She didn't want to think about it, but the more she resisted, the worse and torturous thoughts drew closer. Making Isabelle cry silently.She picked up the cell phone above again. Slide the screen and look for Stephanie's contact number. She pressed the call button and heard a dial tone. Isabelle put her phone back down and thought again.'Maybe Stephanie is having fun with her friends right now. She's single, and Isabelle doesn't want to bother her. Stephanie deserves to enjoy her youth without any interference from me. Besides, I also don't want to trouble her too much.'Isabell was pensive again. Suddenly she remembered a board game her bought at the store. She quickly got off
The alarm went off at 6.00 AM. Isabelle immediately got up and opened the window blinds. Sunlight shone into the room. Making Isabell have to squint. She walked outside to Emily's room. The little girl was still fast asleep in bed. Isabelle closed the door again without intending to wake him up.Isabelle walked down the stairs and stepped into the kitchen. Get ready to prepare breakfast. She took eggs and vegetables from the refrigerator and boiled some water."Aaah!!"Just about to cut carrots, suddenly she heard Emily's scream. Without thinking, Isabelle immediately ran upstairs and approached her daughter."Emily, what's going on?" Isabelle came close and hugged him."Mom, I'm so scared!""What happened?" Isabelle looked around."Yesterday's clown, he's in the mirror.""What? Are you dreaming?""No, Mom. I see him in the mirror."Isabelle sighed. "Darling, maybe it was just a dream. The clown we saw was just a person in a Halloween costume. There's no way he's in the mirror.""But,
That evening, a young girl came to Isabelle's house and introduced herself as Anna White. Isabelle had recognized her from a photo of Mrs. Jennifer. She immediately escorted Anna to her room which was on the first floor, right next to the television room.Luckily Anna is quite good at taking the hearts of small children. So that in just an instant he could become familiar with Emily. Isabella only dedicated Anna to working as a babysitter, not to other jobs. At night, they eat dinner together.The time was 12.05 am, and Isabelle again had difficulty falling asleep. She picked up a book and read it while hoping for sleepiness to come soon. But what she thought was wrong. Almost a quarter of the book's contents had been read, instead of being sleepy, he was getting fresher. Even though tomorrow she has to work.Isabelle put the book down and turned on the television. There are no interesting broadcasts, she just watches random television shows.Meanwhile, in the bedroom, Emily is standin
I've visited several offices, hoping they'd open a job opening for me. In fact, everything is not as expected. They refused for various reasons. I wanted to give up, but that was impossible. Considering my dwindling savings. I also don't want to rely on Carlos' money. He only gave money out of pity. Totally unreliable. Besides, if it weren't for Emily, I wouldn't have taken any money from him. I stopped the car at a gas station. Refuel and stop there for a while. One what? I have visited three companies. There is one vacancy left, but this is not an office, but a factory that makes pickles. It does not matter. Like I said, if this could really provide for Emily and me, I would. I started the car again. Head to the factory. The car is moving at a moderate speed. I reached the place in the afternoon. Confidently meet the HRD of the factory.
