The sun begins to rise and Mark is struggling to get up.
' It is already morning, but I still want to sleep.' He says.
When he finally gets up he goes to the living room to see mom cooking and dad just sleeping on the couch.
'Well she's back and dad... He disgust me...' he thinks to himself as he looks to his dad in disgust.
'But I still love him, not for long tho'
After he greets his mom he thinks what to do next.
'I could take a book and read or do something else' He thinks.
When he turns to go to his room he sees a figure standing next to the room door.
'I think I need to sleep more because I'm seeing a figure right there.'
When he blinks again he sees nothing and stares in wonder.
'Uh, yea maybe I haven't wake up, maybe I'm still a bit sleepy. ' He thinks.
As he sighs in confusion he goes to his room and takes a book to read. He continues to read when he sees the reflection of someone's shadow on the window right outside the door of his room.
'I don't think I'm imagining things' He whispers to himself.
As he turns to see what was that shadow he sees nothing.
' I'm starting to get worried...
Am I sick?, Do I have a fever?' He keeps questioning himself.
'It is probably nothing just my imagination' He assures himself.
'Let me just go to the toilet.'
When he goes to the toilet he sees the same figure right behind him and when he turns he is confused to see nothing.
'Okay no i am not imagining things. I definitely saw a shadow behind me. This house is haunted-'
Some minutes passed and Mark was sitting on his bed trying to figure things out until a voice interrupted his thoughts.
'Mark!, please come here!' A voice shouts from the living room.
'It is my mom'.
'Yes mom?'
'I want you to go to the store and buy me some food stuff so that I can cook'
Mark nods on agreement.
'Thanks, I will give you the money and the list of things to buy' She says.
After she gives him the list and the money she goes looks at his little boy and says
'Please, be careful'
'I will' Mark says assuring her.
He then leaves and closes the door.
He then walks to the nearest market to buy what he needs to buy.
'OK this is all I needed to buy I can go now'
He is walking by when he locks on something near an alley, looks like a shadow.
He blinks one more time to see if he's hallucinating, and the shadow that he saw 3 seconds ago vanished, maybe he needed more sleep?
Some minutes passed and he reaches home puts the food stuff on the kitchen counter after that,
He sees a note on the fridge.
'And this note?'
*Sorry if you don't see me around I need to go it is urgent if you see this I will be out around 3 hours or something, take care (:
Love you!! '
' Great, I'm home alone... Is father in trouble... Again?, is this why there's a note...' *sigh*
