I walked downstairs that morning to see that the moving truck have come, I helped them bring out the small boxes because I clearly was too tiny to help bring out the bigger ones. My mom stood in the doorway with a cup of coffee instead of a bottle of alcohol, I was actually happy to see her up this early.

I went upstairs and threw on a pair of sweats and a big hoodie and I tossed my hair up in a bun, I carried down my hamster and loaded it in the truck. Everything was packed by Atleast noon. I walked into my house after and it looked so bare, and much bigger. Everything was out.

My mom shouted to me from the truck and told me to come on, I walked down the stairs and got into the truck. My mom turned on some country music as we followed the movers to the mansion, man was I ever excited.

We turned into a lane and drove up this long path, it felt like forever to get there but we finally came to gates. I looked out the window to see this huge house in front of me. It wasn't even that pretty. The house was old,grey and had no life to it. No wonder we got it so cheap.

I opened the truck door and stepped out, I gasped at how tall the mansion was. I ran up to the first step and begin climbing. It actually felt like I was climbing, I was beat out by time I reached the door. I pushed open the door and it made a big creak. BAWK, a crow screeched from behind me, it startled me and I tumbled into the house. I fell onto a big carpet and dust flew around me as I fell down.

I got up and decided to explore. I walked through this big hallway and there was so many picture frames of people, most of them were old so I figured it was no big deal. I found the steps to up stairs, I started walking up them. I felt someone breathing on my neck and I whizzed around but no one was there.

I ran back down the steps and outside, my mom shouted at me to help her, no trouble to tell she found the box where I put the alcohol. I helped the movers put the boxes inside and even helped with the furniture. Me and my mom didn't have much really.

It started to get dark so me and mom decided to crash on the couch for the night. I hauled out some blankets and lid down on the couch, I could hear my mom snore as soon as she hit the couch. I looked around just to see dark, but I swear I heard more breathing than just me and moms, but I never slept much, so I just lid down and fell asleep.
