7 Days

DAY 1

"It's our last hunt honey," said Mr Scott to Mrs Scott. "Yes, then we will get our son, our Brian back," said Mrs Scott. "But we have only seven days to bring Brian back," continued Mrs Scott in a tensed tone. "Don't worry seven days is more than enough, we have killed six children in one and a half month," said Mr Scott in a confident voice. "Hope so," said Mrs Scott. Both Mr and Mrs Scott stared at Brian's grave, "I and your mother will bring you back son, just a few more days and you will be back," said Mr Scott in a more confident tone and then both Mr and Mrs Scott went back home.

"Be good with your grandparents, and do, as they say, I don't want a single complaint from them about you. If I hear a complaint I will take you both back, " said Mary to her kids Caleb and joe helping them unpacking their luggage. "Don't worry about me mom, I will be alright, but I can't guarantee about joe the joker, " said Caleb in a chuckle. "For you, I am a joker but  I am smart than you and admit it Caleb that you are jealous of me because I am perfect in everything and you mess up everything, " replied Joe. " I am not jealous of you, why in the world would I be jealous with a joker like you, " said Caleb in a very angry tone. Before joe could reply Caleb, Mary interrupted and said, "I forgot to mention that if I also hear that if you both fight with each other then I will pick you both up and both will be grounded till your summer vacation gets over, "
Caleb and Joe gave each other a rebellious look and both apologised to Mary, just then Mary's mother Dorothy entered and asked Mary to live with them for few days, but Mary denied and said that she has lots of work, and then hugged her and took a farewell. Caleb and Joe waved at Mary until her car disappeared. Dorothy then took the kids inside and said to sit in the dining room. She quickly went inside and bought some doughnuts for them. "Thanks, grandma you are the best, " said Caleb and grabbed a doughnut. "Wow it's so delicious," said Joe after taking a bite of doughnut. "I am happy you liked it," said Dorothy with a smile. As they were eating Oliver entered, "hey grandpa, how was your day today," said Caleb. "It was boring as always, anyways after finishing your snacks come to my room, I want to talk with you both," said Oliver and went to his room. "Hey, grandma do you know anything about it?" Asked joe taking the last bite of the doughnut. Dorothy nodded. After finishing the doughnuts Caleb, joe and Dorothy went to Oliver's room. Caleb knocked at the door, "come in," said Oliver. The three went inside and saw Oliver looking out of the window. "What's the matter grandpa, you seem to be stressed," said Caleb. "There are some rules I need you both to follow," said Oliver. "Rules, what kind of rules grandpa?" Asked Joe. "First, you both can't leave home without my permission. Second, you both have to go to bed by 9:00 pm. Third and final, no talking with strangers," replied Oliver. "Wait what you can't do this to us especially me," said Caleb. He continued, "I have never slept at 9:00 pm that's too early for me and also I am not a kid anymore I am 17 years old,"
" lee me be straight with you guys, we didn't want you both to come over here, in this situation," replied Oliver. "Wait, what kind of situation. Is everything alright?" Asked Caleb. "No it's not, since one and a half month kids are getting disappeared and the cops could also not figure out what's going on, we had talked with your mom but then she replied that she had lots of work and Henry isn't in the country and therefore no one is there to take care of you both and hence she asked us to make some strict rules and asked to keep both of you for a week," replied Oliver in a stressed tone. "So why didn't you both came to our place?" Asked Joe. "This wasn't possible for us, as you both know your grandma must be taken to the hospital every week to diagnose so that her health could be in good condition, and also I can't leave her alone and come, so I had no choice but to allow you both to come in my place," replied Oliver. There was complete silence in the room for a minute and then Caleb said, "Don't worry grandpa we will follow all your rules,"
Joe agreed too but he knew that someday he would break the rule, Oliver thanked both and then Dorothy went down to prepare the dinner.
"Hey boys, tomorrow we three will go fishing in my yacht," said Oliver. "You serious, that would be so great," replied Caleb in a happy tone. "Yes, can't wait to catch loads of fishes tomorrow," replied joe. Soon, dinner was ready and Dorothy called the three to have dinner. "Don't forget about the rules kids," said Oliver. "It's after a long time I am having dinner so early but Don't worry grandpa we will not break any of your rules," said Caleb, Oliver gave a smile and then all three went down to have dinner.
