As I awkwardly greet our new addition to our family I scratch my head and stare intensely. The girl was a child who had no parents, she had big green eyes and had a cute small mouth, her stature was small and her hair was long and wavy, she looked almost like a doll. We didn't know her name and she wouldn't tell us so we decided to call her 'Celeste'.
After a few days of spending time at home with Celeste I decided to go somewhere fun with her as she always looked grim and bored. As the weather forecast said it should be a sunny day I took her out to the park.
When we reached the park her eyes widened and at that moment I knew that she'll enjoy the park, after a minute or two I remembered that I had some unfinished work left at home and if I didn't complete it I'll get killed (metaphorically of course) I've always wanted to see heaven but today is a bit too early. Well what should I do about Celeste? She looks like she's enjoying herself, so I gave her my wrist watch and put it on her skinny wrist.
"Here, when the short hand reached the 5 come home alright?" She said noting but gave me a little nod.I dawdled my way home, and limply walked up the stairs, I put on my glasses and started writing my 10 page SA on climate change, YAY HOW FUN.
Before I know it it's already 5:20, oh crap, is Celeste back yet? I chucked off my glasses and rushed downstairs to see if Celeste was home. When I arrive to the last step I see Celeste standing, facing the kitchen. She must've been hungry!
"Do you want some cookies?" She just stood there and starred and the kitchen.
"I guess that's a yes" I went i to the kitchen and took the jar of cookies off the bench.
"Here you go!" She starred at the cookie for a while then snatched it out of my hand and started nibbling on it. How cute!The next day was another boring, hot day, mum and dad were at work as usual and I'm still at home, in my summer holidays. HOW EXCITING. I decided to let Celeste go to the park again. when I asked her if she needed me to come along she shakes her head, so I give her an old wristwatch of mine and gave it to her.
"Here, it's yours now" she just starred blankly. "Remember to come back when the small hand is at the five. She nodded and rushed out of the house, boy she must love the park.At around five I hear a knock at the door, I rushed downstairs to open the door and there I see Celeste, she has a big smile on her face. She must've made a new friend today!
1AM, I hear a strange noise coming from downstairs,thinking it was the neighbor's dog I fall back asleep.
3rd day Celeste has has gone to the park, she still comes back with a smile on her face, so the next day, and day after I let her go to the park. 4 days, 5 days, all the way to 8 days. When Celeste comes back home she is covered in dirt.
"What happened Celeste? Your covered in dirt!" She didn't answer, she just remained silent and have me that blank stare that she always does.
"No more going to the park to you!" She must've been bullied, or attacked! I can't let her go anymore!1AM I hear a sound, it's a weird sound, almost like a chainsaw.
"Mum, dad?" I drag my feet across the carpet to my parents' room when I arrive they weren't there. That's weird...
I make my downstairs, where I start to smell a weird fragrant, I'm not sure how to explain it, it smells like something's gone off. I follow the scent towards the kitchen, where the smell gets really strong.
"Pewwee! What is in this kitchen?" I look around the kitchen to find the source of the smell, I then discover that the smell is coming from the small cupboard underneath the sink. I walk towards it with my breath held in. I flipped open the cupboard 10 squashed bodies, all nearly arranged it was as if it was a picture, it looked something like this:
IVI I_I IV I stared at this disturbing creation and examined the bodies, one a child, one a man and the rest, women, two of the faces looked familiar, I leaned in closer to have a closer look, then I realized.
"Mum, dad...KYAAAAA!" I was pushed an unknown force which then appeared in its true form.
"Celeste...why?"
"You didn't let me go to the park anymore, I'll just have to use you" I felt this sharp pain all over my body, warm red liquid flowed from my eyes, down cheeks, dripping off my neck, staining my white shirt. My next memory is seeing Celeste with a smile on her face.Is she happy now?
