"We all go a little mad sometimes. Except this time, it wasn't how little or how big I went mad, it's what what I did during the time when I was mad." She grinned at me, and I shifted in my seat uncomfortably.
"Am I right?" She questioned me.
"Um.. Yes. You are absolutely correct."
She is absolutely mad, how did she end up this way?
"May I be excused, mother?" I looked at her shaking hand. It was holding a caterpillar.
"Yes, dear. Please come visit soon. You know how very sad I get when you don't visit me." If you weren't looking her in the eyes, it would almost sound as if she meant it. But if you were to look her in the eyes, you would know that by "sad" she meant "angry."
She put the bug up to her ear and then held it in front of her nose close to her face.
"I cannot do that right now, Mr. Man. I will be put in that chair of shame if I do as you say." She then looked up from the caterpillar and saw me still standing there, staring at her, talking to the caterpillar.
"Well what be the purpose of you still standing here? Shoo!" And she swiped her hand at me.
"Okay, I'll leave right now."

I close the door to my sisters car. Well, step-sister. Well, we aren't even related. But we act as if we are sisters. That adds to extra sisters to the family. Haven and Chasity. I consider them my closest friends.
"So," Chasity and Haven both said.
"How'd it go? Did she flip out on you like the last time?"
"No," I reply. "She just-- she was talking to a caterpillar."
They both gasp.
"Yeah, yeah, I know. I thought she was getting better too." I look back at Haven (she's in the back seat), she just looks away because she doesn't know how to handle awkward situations. But Chasity doesn't either so..
"Anyways," Chasity says. "Anyone up for some Potbelly?"
"Oh hell yeah!!" Haven and I both say at the same time.
"Jinx!" Haven pokes me from the middle seat in the back.
I laugh but snap back, "Oh shush it."

"So do you guys wanna stay the night?"
They say they do and we drive by Chasity and Haven's house and pick up their clothes. We go back to my house and my bedroom light is on.
"Hey, isn't AJ gone with the kids in Kentucky?" Chasity asks me.
"Holy shit, man! Call the cops!" Haven screams.
"Hey! You guys need to calm down!" I hoarsely whisper to them. We'll just go up there and-- no, I'll go up there and they can wait in the car just in case something happens and then that way they can just leave and keep themselves out of danger. I tell them my plan:
"Hell no, Baylee!" Haven says. Chasity isn't even paying any attention. She's been looking up in my window.
"Yes, that's what is going to happen. Chasity?" I make her look at me.
"Y-yes?"
"Promise me you will not let her leave this car."
"I p-promise." She says and thumps her head on the wheel.

I unlock the door to my house and cautiously walk in. I'm not going to be stupid and just yell "hello" like most stupid girls do in movies. That's so predictable. I walked through the living room to the kitchen and grab one of the knifes that are hanging from the wall.
I'm glad all of the stairs are carpet and that they don't creak. I get to my room and it's closed and I hear people going through my drawers. I heard something come off of my shelf then I heard a woman say, "Oops"
Then I quickly open my door and I get attacked to the floor. Then I feel a sticky, warm, type of goo all over my hand. And then my room went pitch black...
