as I slowed down I looked in the house and saw a Lady, the lady I saw in the mirror. My mother read a small purple sign that said,"this house is going to be demolished. everything inside this house will be removed and taken to a burning facility, starting this Tuesday." as soon as she finished reading the sign the lady inside stood up and began running full speed at us. I looked away from the lady and looked straight ahead of me and saw a man. His face looked like some one put a cheese grater to his face and started shredding his face to bits, his face was all bloody and his lips were practically not even there, "you could see all of his teeth" I thought to myself this time. But his eyes, they looked innocent, like he didn't even know his face was gone. And his finger tips, you could see his bones, just the tips though, and they were covered in dry blood. my mother was stunned, and they were both coming for us, the lady in the back, and the man in the front, of the car. So I stepped on the Gas pedal and did what I  had to do, run over the man and keep going. As I looked in my rear view mirror, I saw nothing, not the man, not the woman,nothing. "They just disappeared, but how? The man should still be there on the ground!" I decided to go and quickly drop the books off and head home. I took my other route home, the one that doesn't go past the creepy, old, house.

when I got home I picked up the baby doll and headed to the couch to watch some TV. As I sat down on the couch I heard baby cries again. I remembered that I got him some clothes and food, but I never brought it  inside the house. I put him down on the couch and sprinted outside to my car to retrieve the items. I came back inside to see my mother holding him and singing to him, Hush, little baby, don't say a word. mamma's gonna buy you a mockingbird. And if that mockingbird won't sing,mamma's gonna buy you a diamond ring. And if that diamond ring turns brass, mamma's gonna buy you a looking glass. And if that looking glass gets broke, mamma's gonna buy you a billy goat. And if that billy goat won't pull, mamma's gonna buy you a cart and bull. And if that cart and bull turn over, mamma's gonna buy you a dog named Rover. And if that dog named Rover won't bark. mamma's gonna buy you a horse and cart. And if that horse and cart fall down, You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town. and then he stopped crying. I then took him from my mom and held him.
