The Curse of Time

1

Catherine (My elder sister) and I have just moved into a big house, it was not our wish though, because this house is basically in the middle of nowhere. Our parents wanted to move here because they thought we could be closer to nature if we stay here.

DAY 1
We have just noticed that the house is filled with with these weird pictures of people who I think used to live here.
These pictures just creep me out. They are everywhere - on walls, on desks, even on the beds. I keep telling mom I don't wanted to stay here, there is just something weird about this place, I don't know what but I can just feel it. I'm not the kind of a person who likes living in privacy.
I like to be with my friends.
By the way my name's Jacob, hope I will be able to live in this house.

DAY 2
Well, I think that this house is not that boring after all. I have just found a secret room behind a poster on my bedroom wall.
Most people tell this kind of stuff to their parents or mabye their siblings......But not ME !!!!
Remember when I told you that I don't like living in privacy, well I might just have a whole new idea about it. I am gonna make this my secret base.
When I went in the hidden room, or let's just say MY secret base, I just found something that could really make my day....There are mirror like things which are linked to other of them throughout the house, so I can spy on anyone, anywhere in the house (Even the toilets). I have put the poster back properly so no one finds my base. Oh, Mom's calling, it's time for breakfast. Looks like we'll have to talk later then, See ya.

After the breakfast, Mom told me to go out and explore the neighbourhood, I tried to Cath (Short name for Catherine) to come but she would just talk to her friends on her phone and tell me to go alone. So when I started walking, I suddenly heard some kids playing soccer, That was a surprise as dad told us that there are no houses nearby. When I went to join them, they seemed friendly and we had a long game. At about 6 P.M, they had to go home. To my surprise, they all seemed to go in the same direction, When I tried to say, "Goodbye", They didn't seem to hear me. Well I just decided to go back home as I this place started looking really creepy when it got dark. While having dinner, I told them about how I found children over here even though he told us about no one living here but us. Dad seemed to surprised and he told us that the landlord told him that.

DAY 3
Last night I couldn't sleep, so I decided to have a quick midnight snack. When I went to the kitchen, I suddenly heard some strange sounds from my room. I rushed to my room, it sounded like water dripping which was coming from my secret base. When I removed the poster, there was the boy drinking water. Most of the water was dropping on him and then on the ground. When I went to ask him about what he was doing here, he turned to reveal his face which to my surprise was half burnt. I let out a scream, My parents and Catherine rushed in my room. When I told them about the boy, the didn't seem to see anyone, I turned to look, the boy had disappeared.
