"I regret taking this job" I joked and she stares at me."No, I mean real regrets in life?"
"No, why would I?" I say looking back at the remote to see it wasn't on the table anymore but on the couch. "Jen... I think I'm losing it" I said when I started hearing footsteps above me. I get up and go to the steps and run upstairs to see the twin's bedroom door is closed. I walk into the room and it was dark but I see both of the girls standing up on their bed staring at me. What the hell? "What are you girls doing, lay down!" I say angry.
"We're tired" Jackie says and I stare at her confused.
"That's why you lay down and go to sleep" I say.
"We don't want to be here anymore, we're tired" Jill says and I stare at them. This is so crazy and I told Jen these girls were strange.
"Jackie, Jill, lay down and I don't want to tell you girls again" I say. They both stare at me then slowly and at the same time they both lay down in their bed pulling the blankets over them. I roll my eyes and shook my head. "Night" I say leaving the room and heading back downstairs. I head to the living room and I don't see Jen. "JEN!" I called out and there was no response. "Jen, if you're trying to scare me it's not funny" I say going to sit on the couch. I don't hear anything and I started to get nervous. That's when I started to see the lights flicker in the kitchen. I stare at it then looked around. "Jen, are you in the kitchen?" I asked. I get up and slowly walk towards the kitchen and the lights stop flickering. I go to turn on the light switch and nothing happens. I back up from the kitchen and that's when I hear a door slowly swings open from the kitchen. "JEN!" I shout. Nothing. I turn around and head back to the living room. I go to my purse that was sitting on the table and dug around for my phone. "What the hell? Where's my phone?" I look around for Jen's phone and I didn't see it. Obviously one of the girls took it. I head back upstairs to see the girl's room door was shut. I slowly walk up to it when Robbie's bedroom door opens. I look over at it and took a deep breath. "Jen, this isn't funny! And I'm not scared!" I walk into the Robbie's room and tried to turn on the light but nothing came on. I hear scratching on the floor and I walk in a little more to see something crawl across the floor under Robbie's crib. I scream and jump back when I hit the door causing it to hit the wall. It was too big to be a rat and too small to be a grown man. I slowly squat down when I saw it crawl out under the crib to the corner of the wall. I stare at its yellow's pants and jumped up. "Jill?" I asked. She turns around to look at me and stands up. What the hell is she doing? "You okay?" I asked and she shakes her head no. "Why? What's wrong?"
"I just wanted to be a teacher when I grew up" she said and I look at her confused.
"You still can if you go to bed Jill"
"No I can't" she starts to cry.
"Jill, come on, just go to bed"
"NO!" she yells in a devil voice that makes me jump. She stares at me and I back up from her and into the hallway. I don't take my eyes off of Jill as she stares at me until something catches my eye. I look over into the twin's bedroom to see Jen sitting in the rocking chair staring at the corner of the wall. "Jen?" I called and she doesn't move. I look back over at Robbie's room then slowly walk towards Jen. "Jennifer!" I walk over to her and tap her shoulder and Jen slowly rolls her head to me. Her face and clothes were covered in blood and my mouth drops open. I stare at her starting to cry. "What happened? Who did this?"
"You did" she says and I stare at her confused.
"Jen, I'm going to help you, I swear" I say and I look over to the bed to see that Jackie and Jill were nowhere to be found. "Did they do this to you?" I asked look backing at Jen and she stares at me.
