Monster In The Dark

Chapter 2

I Jump off my bed as daylight approaches. I didnt sleep last night. Ive been having so many flashbacks recently. It isnt fun. I thought it was okay at first but they get deeper and deeper into the locked memories in my mind. I dont know how to stop it.

I look at the clock and decide i might aswell get up, knowing i wont get much sleep in the next 3 hours of night time.
Ive grown aquainted with the darkness. Its... a soothing feeling..

*bang bang*

I walk towards the front door only to find the police are here.. once again. Ever since my mother died they have been questioning me about everything. Im 25 and she left the house to me. But instead i chose a little house right in the middle of the woods. Its cozier.

"Hello, how may i help you today, officers?" I look at them with a fake smile.

"Youre Carly, right?" The taller one asked. He was extremely handsome and you could tell was new to the game. I smile timidly and nod my head yes, gesturing for them to come in.

I walk over to the couch and sit. "Has something happened? Anything New appear in the case?"

He just looks at the short one in confusion. I can only make his name out to be.. jakobs. Fuck I forgot my glasses. No wonder i cant read well.

I smile and blush " im so sorry! I didnt introduce myself did I? My name is Carly Roberts. Im the Head for the Ontario news paper. When my mother died, i was let in on somethings to help me get through it. Hence why i dont live in the house she died in."

He looks at me with such a sad look in his eyes. I dont think he fully realizes what happened in that house. Or why exactly i havent stayed there..
