THE HAUNTED MANSION

welcoming the cousins

"hey mom! I was calling you to inform that my cousins are coming today." Hannah ran downstairs shouting from her room "I will come after finishing my homework to help you, and what are you cooking for lunch? If you need then I can bring some groceries from the store nearby."

"Well,today I was thinking about baking pizza for you all because you all love it the most."Her mom replied.
"Thanks mom."

"The list of groceries is on the table, go and get those after completing your homework."her mom ordered.
"Okay, but please take help from my lazy brothers they won't do any household stuff."
"Okayyy, my hard working daughter."

Hannah came into her room and sat on the chair line beside her study table. She was feeling a bit tense thinking about what would happen if uncle and aunt would stay here for a few days or they would leave my cousins after dropping them here because they are so straight in the matter of cleanliness and wasting more time in playing video games and watching movies.

John,the elder brother came to her home and asked-"what happened Hennah? In which deep thoughts are you in is there something you are hiding from me? if something is disturbing? you can tell me if you want."

"Nothing, just thinking about our uncle and aunt because you know they are so strict."said Hannah with the low and sad face.
"Then what? you already know that they have their own jobs they can't stay here because they have to get back to their work, so why are you so worried about it."

"By the way, I am going to help mom, arn't you coming?"

"I'll come after finishing my homework."

John leaves her room after a minute. now, all the family members worked hard to clean house and everything was ready including the lunch.

There was only a little time left in the arrival of the cousins, a different kind of excitement was awakening inside inside Hannah, thinking of how much fun they will do together.
They all have gone to the dining room as a all were exhausted after doing the work. After a while the bell rang and Hannah rushed to open the door.

As soon as she opened the door, suddenly her cousins appeared to scare her but she didn't budge a little because she do the same thing with her siblings daily.
Hannah welcomed them and take them all inside and called the family members. They came inside in peacefully settled in the dining room, we are think was hannah and didn't came with them.

Hannah asked her cousins about aunt but the started thinking what to answer, they both was staring at uncle's face. After a minute uncle replied -"your aunt didn'tcame because she was having some important work and she is not well too."
"This is not a good news uncle, I thought my aunt will also come but it's okay. Let her rest." Hannah replied with the worried face.

While talking about aunt Hannah felt a strange fear on her cousin's face as they were afraid of something.

"Don't worry Hannah, mom is alright."sad karl.
"Yes, mom is alright. don't worry."added Steven.

Karl and Steven were and as cousins. they were twins and approximately same of a age.

After doing the conversation about her and Hannah gone to the kitchen to get some beverages for a guest, as it was too hot that day.

When she returned in the daring room with the tray in her hand filled with refreshing beverages her cousin jumped on the seat in happiness. See offered the drink to all the members who are present there and one glasses left for her. She was so glad that the class left had her favourite drink but as soon as she got that glass her younger sibling Danny took it,"I want one more class,because I am thirsty."

"Mom see, Danny took my drink, please say something.? She said with irritated voice.

"Bring a new one from the kitchen why are you fighting Hannah, he is younger than you, learn to love your brothers."her mother stared at her.

"Younger brothers ? My foot, we adopted him from an orphanage."Hannah said while laughing on her brother.

"I am not adopted." said Danny and sat down with pout on his face.
Everyone in the room started laughing hardly on danny's actions any started crying.

"Nobody lo-ves meee,theyyy ado-pted Mee, Noo-body lo-ves me."said danny while sobbing.
"Hannah stop it, see, you made him
cry."said her mother "don't say these words again to him."
"Okay."
After danny's drama of not being loved. They all continue the conversation. And Hannah again went to the kitchen to put the used glasses in the sink,got another drink from the refrigerator and returned to the dining room.
After long family conversation and career counselling."we are hungry."they all screamed in hunger.

"The food is ready I am just coming in 5 minutes. Mrs. liverhood shouted.
After 10 minutes she got the pizzas and put them on the table and return back to the kitchen."now you all can have it."her voice came from the kitchen.

After having the lunch, they all were enough energetic to play and have fun. They all filled with a feeling of ecstasy. They were so excited that they were getting out of the mind running around their like playgroup kids.

They all were playing board games, cards. While John was studying because he was in a senior class and obviously higher the class,more you study. After he finished his studies he came to us,"what about watching a movie?"John with excitement filled in his eyes.

"That's a great idea,but not now. I want to watch horror movies at night, that will be more fun especially with karl and Steven."said Hannah.
"Yeah we'll watch horror movie but not in dark as well as night, you all know I am afraid of it."said Danny with nervousness on his face.

"Who said that you will watch a movie with us, you timid cat."Said Hannah with the grin on her face and scared him a bit.
