Unexpected Guest

I walk slugly down the road from the school. Then all the sudden I felt cold arms around my waist. It started to drag me. I struggle to get out the embrace. But it was strong has an iron grib. I start to scream but a hand was put over my mouth. I kicked and scream under the hand, but none of it worked............

I shoot my head with a loud scream. I was sitting in my desk in school. I look around to if anyone heard my scream, but sadly everyone even the teacher heard my scream. They all look at me in confusion. I look down from the embarrassment. But the teacher just kept on with the lesson for the day.

That was a scary dream. I thought to myself when I walk home.

Why did I have that dream?

Right before I see my house. I see Charlie about to go down the dirt road. I yell and waving and smiling. "Hey, wait up!" and I start to run where he was.

He stops and looks at me. I stop and looked at his expresion. It was scaring me. His eyes was a glowing red. It looked like he was going to eat me or something. He looks at me for a long period. Then he shakes his head and runs very quickly down the dusty road kicking up the dirt from behind him.

I stood there after he left with a puzzled look on my face. I put my hand behind my head my and rub it.

I jog to my house from there. I set my bookbag next to the door and I walked up the stairs to my room.

Right before I get to my room I hear my Nanny talking. I walk back down stairs to see where she was. I followed her voice to the kitchen.

"They can not be here" my Nanny said right before I walked in the kitchen.

We had a guest. It was a woman that was very pale, her hair was an ivory white, and her eyes was an aqumarine color.

"Who can not be here, Nanny?" I ask her. While looking at the women. I look back at her.

She looks at me in a shocked look like she didn't want me to hear what she said.

She changes her expression, "Nobody you have to worry about, sweetie." she said sweetly.

I look back at the guest. The woman looks and me and smirks a little.

My Nanny notices my gaze. "This is Snow. She is......" she fumbles over words while looking at Snow, "...an old friend of mine." she finally says.

Old! She looks like she is her twenties.

Snow was still looking at me. " FInally to meet you. Your grandmother has told me so much about you."

" Oh, Nanny hasn't told me anything about you." I said blankly.

I look back at my Nanny too see if she would say anything, She just stood there not moving starring at me.

Something about this women doesn't seem to sit so good with me.

We all look at each other for a while. I turned around and I went back to my room.

I ravage my room to look for the piece of paper that Charlie gave me a week ago. When I finally found it on my desk. I called the number and waited for him to pick up. It rung for about five times.

A husky voice came on the phone. I knew it was Charlie by the british accent. "Hello?"

"Hey, are you ok? You haven't been to school for the last week." I ask in a concern voice.

I wasn't going to say anything bout what opened outside just about 30 minutes ago.

"Yes, I'm ok." He weirdly said.

" Why haven't you been to school?"

"Um.... I had a private matter to deal with my family." He said in an unsteady tone.

"Oh, well are you going to school tomorrow?"

"Yes, I am."

"Ok good I will see you tomorrow. Bye!" I exclaim.

I ended the call and I set my phone on my desk. I went to my bed across from the room and laid down for a while.

"Dinner is ready!" I hear from downstairs. I get up slowly and walk down the stairs. I go to the kitchen and I set at the table that Snow and my Nanny was sitting. But Snow wasn't here anymore. Thankfuly.

The table was full with wonderful looking food like mashed potatoes, broccoli, and pork chops.

My Nanny and Pappa and I ate our food in silence. When we almost done. I ask my Pappa,"Where were you when I home from school the other day?"

"I told you that you did not have to worry about it." my Nanny insist.

I look back at Pappa, but he looked at my Nanny. She gave him a serious look. He looked back at me and didn't say anything. Instead he got another spoon ful of mashed potatoes and started to eat them.

"Whatever" I mumbled under my breath while I got up from the table and took my plate to the sink.

I went back up to my room and laid on my bed. I started think about what all happened today. That dream, Charlie while dealing with outside, and this new women that my Nanny supposely knew for a long time.

I think of all of this while I drift slowly off to sleep.
