"𝐓𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠." 𝐎𝐤𝐚𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐧 + 𝐘/𝐍 𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘 (SEASON ONE)

Okaasan is Coming..

You are invited to your best friend, Miku house's to a nice sleepover with also her mother! You were very excited, you waved to your parents and head to Miku's house, you were so excited for this day to start!

You knock on the door to Miku's house. After a few moments, her mum answers and says "Come in!" in a very chipper and welcoming tone.

Upon entering, the house seems to be very clean and nice. Miku's mum is friendly to both you and Miku and welcomes you both. She offers to make some food, but you aren't hungry, and neither is Miku. As Miku's mum is in the other room making some "tea", Miku leans over and whispers in your ear.

"She wasn't always like that...".

"Huh? what do you mean.. did something happened?" You whisper back to Miku very confused.

Miku's eyes seem as though they want to say more than they are able to, but she only whispers "I can't really say..." and then smiles at her mother as her mother serves the tea to the two of you and sits down at the table as you and Miku take a seat.

Miku's mother forgot to get the sugar and walks back to the kitchen.

Miku's eyes dart around to check if her mother is nearby.

"Promise not to tell a soul." Miku puts her finger to her mouth, signalling for you to keep a secret.

Her voice is serious and urgent. She looks terrified.

"Something is very wrong here."

"I won't tell anybody. Not even your mother. But say it quick before she might hear us and come back from the kitchen." You whisper back, confused of what Miku's horrifed behavior is all about. 

"Just yesterday, everything was completely normal. But today, I heard an argument coming from my parents' room. Just a bit ago, I heard my mum whisper something as she went to make her tea".

Miku looks around frantically before continuing to whisper

"She said that she was going to eat me up!". 

You looked horrifed as her and felt disgusted, then you had this feeling like you wanted to help her so you said "Is there anything I can do to stop or even get you out of this house?"

"I think we can try two things." Miku looks around again. Her mother's footsteps are getting closer.

Miku suggests..

"There's probably a hidden exit somewhere. We can try to find that and escape through it. Or we can distract her and make her forget about us."

You nodded, and rapidy looked around "Let's find that exit soon, but for now act like nothing happen. I hear your mother opening the door." you whispered

Miku nods and forces a smile. She waves as her mother walks out of her room.

Miku's mum takes a seat by you girls and pours herself tea.

"Now, Miku, you know that me and your father are very protective of you," says Miku's mum, "and that is why we are so careful about who you have spend time with."

Miku forces a smile. "Yes, mum," she says. "How is your tea?"

Miku's mum smiles... and takes a sip.

I smiled also and said "What flavor is that tea..?" she said, with a smile but inside she was concered.

"Chamomile, sweetie." says Miku's mum as she takes another sip of tea.

She glances at you before saying to Miku:

"Now, what was it you were saying to your friend just now?"

Miku's mouth falls open. She was busted.

"I-it was nothing!" Miku says quickly.

"Oh we were just talking about school!" You said with a fake smile, but you were still thinking about that dark talk a few minutes ago.

Miku's mum looks at you for a moment before turning back to Miku and raising an eyebrow.

"Hmm... okay." she says with a smile. "Well, I think it's time for all of us to get some sleep, don't you?".

Before you can answer, Miku's mum has already headed for her room. You see her quickly shut the door to her room behind her.

Now, you are alone with Miku.

"Miku.. we should start looking for that exit you mentioned. But if you start hearing strange sounds, you should hide under the bed while i'll be in the tight closet, okay?" You said worried and terrifed.

Miku nods frantically and quickly grabs her phone from her bag.

"Let's look for that exit now." she says, as she begins to search around the house, moving quickly around corners and opening cabinets and wardrobes all around the house.

As Miku searches, she glances at you every once in a while and whispers, "Be careful... stay alert..."

After a while, Miku calls out to you in a frantic voice. "I think I found it!" she whispers.
