How disturbing can a pair of glowing eyes get? On a scale of one to ten, ten!
Tina's life encounter a series of unexpected events, which all begin with the night of a full moon. Now, what have we been taught since we were kids? Stay away from troubl...
Tonight, my parents weren't home nor were my siblings, my ten year old sister had gone to her friends house for a sleepover.
I tossed and turned, but couldn't sleep and whenever I closed my eyes, I saw those glowing eyes. I checked the time and it was, 3 AM. I got out of bed and sat on my working desk chair. I stood up and walked towards the window again and looked out, this time the glowing eyes weren't there. Instead I saw my reflection on the window and.... the glowing eyes just above my own reflection. I jerked away from the window and looked behind me, there was no one.
I took in a deep breath. Then, walked back to bed and laid there, staring at the ceiling. I closed my eyes and for once, I didn't see those eyes.
I woke up after a while. I had a nightmare, but it felt real. I was sweating and breathing beavily. I sat up on my bed, hugging my knees to my chest. I looked at the window and saw that it was open. I rushed to it and shut the window close and returned back to my bed, staying in the same position as earlier. I checked the time, it was 4 AM, I ducked my head down and tried to sleep.

I looked at my reflection on the mirror. I looked scary, my hair was messy and I had huge bags under my eyes. I walked to the washroom and had a quick bath and got into casual clothes. I combed my hair and dabbed some powder on the bags under my eyes. I left my room and saw that my parents and siblings hadn't still return from their whatevers. I sat on the couch in the living room with a sigh as I relaxed.
After a while, I walked out of home and towards where I had stopped the bike last night, that's when I remembered that I had sent it to the garage where it was before. I saw my mothers car parked in front of house, which meant my parents hadn't gone for business, they had gone together. I found the keys to the car and got in. I started the ignition and drove to no particular place, taking many turns. The road I was in currently had no vehicles.
Suddenly, a figure appeared. I stopped the car and rushed out of the car to look at what or who it was, there was nothing. No one. I shut my eyes, then opened them and looked again. There was nothing. I punched the cars hood. I guess it was too hard since there was kind of like a patch there. I bit my bottom lip. Mom will kill me.
I got into the car, I tried to start the ignition, but it didn't start. I tried again, didn't work. That's when I remembered this car is an old one and it's supposed to be handled with care. I hit my palm on my forehead and mumbled, "Damn it"
I got out of the car and looked around for help. A lorry passed by, I tried to stop them, but they didn't. I pulled out my phone from my pocket and called the tow truck, the only one I knew which was here, in Southfalls.
After around twenty minutes the truck appeared, I breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank god" I mumbled.
A boy, who looked around the age of eighteen got out of the car. He had light brown hair and green eyes, not like I looked into his eyes or something. He seemed to be around six feet. He looked at me then immediately looked down. He didn't apologise for being late. Hmph rude. I fake coughed, looking at him. He didn't look up though, he continued to do his work.
"I don't have a ride, can I get into the truck" I asked. He nodded his head in reply as if it was obvious. I frowned and got into the truck. I tried to find to do while I sat there, bored.
In around five minutes, the guy got into the truck and started driving. Soon, he stopped in front of a place where there were mechanics attempting to cars. He immediately got out of the car and slammed the door shut -which made me jump- and walked away. I got out of the car and closed the door, slowly. I bit my bottom lip, waiting for the guy to return, instead another guy with blonde hair appeared, he smiled and I returned the favour.
"Will you come collect the car or do you want it delievered?" He asked. "I'll collect it" I answered. He nodded and walked away. The garage where my bike was, was exactly in front.
I walked towards the garage and a decent lady -who I knew from when I came here the last time named, Jasie- walked towards me with a smile. "You're Celestina?" She asked. I nodded in answer, "you wanted your bike sold, right?" She asked. "Yeah" I answered. She started walking, I walked beside her, looking at her, curiously.
"it's a surprise a girl of your age has this bike" she said "for how much was this sold to you?" She asked.
"Not much" I answered. "Usually, bikes like this are for $10, 000" I was surprised by what she said. She led me to my bike, she asked my where i bought the bike from and i answered.
"Recently it was said that the place sold stolen vehicles in cheap costs as it is profitable to them" she explained "your bike has to be returned, but the thiefs have to pay you back. The theif is the brother of the owner here and... You've been given a car instead of the money" she said. I raised an eyebrow. This has never happened.
I discussed the matter of the car with her and ended up with a beautiful black car:

I got into the car and drove back home. When i checked the time, It was two.
When I walked in, I smelt food. I walked towards the kitchen and saw my mother, cooking. She turned and faced me with her hand on her hip. "Whose car is that?" She asked. "It's a deal, ma" I answered her. She nodded. I thanked every god in the sky for the fact that my mother didn't question about her car.
I walked to the living room where both my brothers, Caden and Eden were playing video games and my older sister, Emily was doing something on her phone. My little sister, Claire ran up to me and hugged my knees.
I smiled and looked down at her then crouched down at her level. "Hey Claire" I greeted her. "Hello" she waved at me then ran back to her her barbie house and played.
I smiled and stood up. I sat in between my brothers, both of them stopped playing and looked at me. They kissed my cheek, "hey little sis" they greeted me.
"I'm not little anymore" I whined, Caden stood up and ruffled my hair. "Caden" I said, looking up at him with my eyes narrowed, he simply shrugged. I rolled my eyes and stood up.
I left the room and saw two similar and familiar faces. That's right, my twin cousins, Jayden and Hayden. Oh god, there are too many boys.
"Hey Cell" they greeted me, adding the nickname of mine, I hated.
