THE BLOOD OATH (Completed)

CHAPTER 2

CASSIE JUVERN

I did not sleep a wink yesterday I just don't understand what has been happening to me. I can't even tell my brother he will never believe me. I'm even scared of going back to the Thompson mansion something about that house creeps me out because all of this started while I was there. I will have to resign today because I don't think I will survive another day working in that house yes they pay us good money but I value my life more than anything. My brother is already gone for work now I have to go bath and get ready but I'm scared of going to the bathroom because of what happened yesterday I pace up and down if I don't bath I will be late. I walk to my bathroom opening my door. I open the water doing everything I soak my body then start scrubbing myself I'm doing I fast I just want to quickly leave before anything strange or scary happens. I walk out lotion my body getting dressed I quickly walked out going to the bus stop. I wait for a while then it arrives we get inside sit down it pick up Juliet she waves at me. Rose sit next to me. Malia and Ella get inside they sit together.

Rose: "Today is blazing hot we will work like slaves in that house I fear". I know what she is referring. Maria Tate our manager is coming back today she was gone because of family issues.

Me: "I know I don't even feel like working today". She sighed.

Rose: "You were not fine yesterday are you alright?". Her voice was concerned I could hear it.

Me: "I'm alright Rose let's go we have arrived". We walked out then walk to the house. There are cars outside we look at each other

Malia: "Do we have guests?". We shrug. We are confused because we only saw the Thompson when they hired us they told us how they have busy schedules and in the day we will not see them but they are always back in the house at night. When we heard that we were confused but we let it be. The house is always not cleaned in the morning they make sure to make work for us even in their bedroom everything is just messy. We walk inside Maria is standing in the lounge area clearly waiting for us. Her face is blank.

Maria: "So this is the time to arrive at work?". We glanced at each other confused.

Juliet: "But Ma'am we are not late we just arrived in time". She is right we are not late.

Rose: "Maybe you forgot the time schedule it was changed by Alex he said we can't keep coming this early so he changed it". She does not look on convinced.

Ella: "You did not know about that maybe they forgot to tell you they have been busy lately". She sighed.

Maria: "Maybe they did not don't stand there go do your duties". We hurry off to the changing room and change to our work uniform. I start by cleaning Alex room he is untidy this one why is his room always this dirty. I start by cleaning everything, sweeping the floor, opening the curtains, arranging his bed neatly. I sit down when I'm done I don't think I want to continue working here.

"LET  ME  IN". I hear a bold voice I jump quickly I even felt a hot breath on my neck what is happening here. I'm shivering I feel like something bad is happening to me. I quickly walk out closing the door. I think I believe the rumours now I can't explain what is happening to me. I don't even think they ladies I work with will believe me but I need to tell them. I get inside the kitchen I sigh finding all of them eating. It's not lunch time why are they eating?. Maria better not caught them. I walk to hem sitting down next to Juliet.

Me: "Ladies I need to tell you something". They glanced at me. "Something weird and strange is happening to me firstly I was.......".  I narrate everything that has happened to me to this moment they are looking at me like they are seeing a ghost.

Rose: "Your story sounds exactly like Shelley, you guys remember her she went missing after she complained to Madam Elizabeth about the strange things she has been seeing apparently they fired her then after two days she went missing". She is glancing as if she is giving me a warning.
