Not again Jovi, I already told u I want this room, I said it first, you said you where going to take the room down the hallway"

"yes I did, but I never knew this room looked better."

"Gosh! it doesn't matter I said it first and so I get it, mummy!!!!, come and have a say on this.

her mother had to interfere, obviously tired of their incessant fighting, would it ever stop.

"Jovi, Laburu took this room first so go to your room and set it up.

Fine! ok mom, she grudgingly said, I will go to my room. she slowly left the room and went to set her room.

"mom why does she always do that?"

sisters fight it's normal dear, finish up and come down for your dinner.
she gave that usuual loving smile and left the room.

"Jovi hurry up and come down for your dinner!" she shouted.

there you have it, my family! a loving mother an annoying sister and an understanding father, we moved to our another town for reasons best known to them, we just obeyed.

I and my sister weren't much of a problem kids, we did raise an eyebrow each but gave no complaint, just do as they say, they pretty much know better than we do.

"Oh my! mom you made my favourite"

which was strange, when was the last time you made Abula, the traditional dish tasted like heaven. Jovi was likewise excited about the dish.
we both love our traditional dish.

"when you are done eating get back to what u where doing" she calmly said

dad sat, all sweating and breathing heavily from fixing the house, he looked like he needed the delicacy mom prepared.

we ate silently and returned back to arranging.

I decided to choose the rose colored bed spread, it reminded me of a romantic evening, "the curtains have to match too, so I pick you"

patterned differently but better, anyway I feel elated having a room of my own and designing to my taste.

a few boxes left to unpack, babe, I will do that tomorrow.

Then it started...

while I was in the middle of tucking in my bed, I felt someone staring at me, it was strange and unusual but it felt like some one was right there sizeing me up.

Probably it's just my mind playing tricks on me, I went back to tucking in my bed to ensure it was well laid, I hate that rumpled look.

But then a cold breeze softly brushed over my face I was startled, I couldn't ignore it this time however it will take more than that to scare.

I had goose bumps all over, staring into the space before me trying to see what it was, but there was nothing there.

I got my novel "Laburu" and got into, bed, the book was a triller, I had to continue it, and I needed something to take my mind off what was happening. Didn't know when I fell asleep.
