A pear shaped woman in white fitted floral dress stood at the front of the door and next to her was Kenny using his arm as a place for Baby Goldie to sit, it was mama. She had walked in at the most inappropriate time and she must have heard my question.
"I am scared of the dark" I continued in my most convincing voice hoping she would buy my 'truthful excuse' because I really was scared of the dark but I fear her mind must have been misled. "Go and take your bath Bella" she said almost as if she didn't care "we still need to talk" she concluded
"Do you still need my help?" Kenny shouted before I proceeded to the stair case. Can this jerk just not make things worse for me!
Has anyone ever had that aftereffect when you just finished watching a horror movie and you proceed to take your bath in the night? When all is dark? Well this was the kind of effect all these shenanigans had on me, I could barely close my eyes to wash my face talk more of rinsing it because of the images my mind kept creating and I was for sure having a cursory look at every corner. It seemed like a long bath because for every moment I tried closing my eyes, it seemed as if the grim reaper was coming to reap my soul with its scythe and Baby Goldie cheering him on. My bath was as long as 5minutes because I couldn't wait for it to end. I ran to my room to dress up.
"Bella!!" Mama shouted from downstairs "how many hours will it take you to finish bathing?"
"I'm coming mama!"  I screamed at the top of my lungs not wanting to annoy her anymore. Approaching the parlor I saw Baby Goldie on Kenny's lap watching a cartoon and mama also sitting, watching the cartoon then she looked at Baby Goldie. That look! She had that look on, that familiar look as if she was scared but didn't want to show it, oh yes! that look she gave the doctor! Flashbacks of mama and the doctor replayed in my head "mama abruptly rejected the offer and threatened to call her lawyer if the doctor tried to stop her from leaving the hospital" Mama will not believe me, No! She won't she'll think I'm crazy. Or maybe I am crazy, whose daughter says her baby's sister is a demon or possessed. My eyes suddenly started having a burning sensation that only came when I am about to cry, I tried to stifle it but I couldn't. I released it, tears cascading down my face..... I couldn't help it, I failed my father!
