It was 12:00 in the afternoon, meaning I overslept. I looked over, Alex was at work. I was meant to go get some shopping done for the new house but I over slept.
"Do you want to come with me and get some shopping done?" I sent a text to Sami hoping she would come. I went downstairs to fill the dogs bowls and when I went into the kitchen there was something sitting on my countertop. I screamed and dropped the dog food. The dogs came running in and barking. Whatever it was it was gone now, what was that? It was most likely just my mind playing tricks on me, you know, new house and all. Just then Sami texted back,
"Of course, I will meet you at your house in twenty minutes." I lived in London and Sami didn't live too far, as you probably guessed. I used to live in Scotland up until Alex got a job in London for tattooing, he was able to start his own shop and I couldn't have been more happy for him, so we decided to move. When Sami got here I started to explain the things that were happening.
"And this morning I swear on my life something was sitting up on the countertop." I explained sounding rather exasperated.
"Brandie, you don't think his has anything to do with Dani do you?" Dani was a girl who lived with me in my old house before I met Alex. She was a girl I picked up from a place called Watkens Den, a school for the mentally ill. I decided she need a good home so I took her with me. She was 12 and she seemed very depressed. She hardly ate anything and when she did she would take it into her room. She never really came out of her room unless it was to take a shower or go to the bathroom. She talked to me every now and then, she always said I was the only person she could trust. I bought her new clothes every other week. Her favourite shop was Hot Topic so when I mentioned getting new clothes she would come with me. Those times we really bonded. One night I was knocking on her door to see if she wanted to come with me but she didn't answer. It wasn't like her. I tried opening the door but it was locked, I remember kicking down the door and smelling the worst smell ever. I gagged and my eyes filled up with tears. I turned away. It smelled of roadkill and human waste. I looked in the room and found that she had hung herself. I was crying and crying I didn't want to leave her I felt terrible. I called the police and they came and took her body I was still crying, they took me in for questioning and I explained everything. I couldn't stop crying. I was so upset I loved Dani like she was my own. To see her body hanging from my ceiling made my heart stop. Later that year I had a funeral for her, no one could contact her real family, so mine was the closest thing she had. I started taking into consideration that maybe all these weird experiences we were having had something to do Dani. I was worried that if it was true, she would become aggressive towards Alex because she didn't know him. I began to get really worried and anxious. I grabbed Sami and we left. Shopping could take my mind off of things I'm sure.
