She Didn't Know She Did it

Chapter 6

Waking up. I thought I was kidnapped.

"OMGOMGWHERETHEHELLAMI?!" I screamed.

I ran downstairs and into the kitchen and grabbed a knife. Someone was starting to walk in.

"Venetia, are you in here?" a familiar voice asked me.

As soon as i saw a shadow coming from down the hallway, i threw the knife, barely missing the figure's collar bone. I screamed and ran back to the upstairs bathroom and locked the door.

"Ven, are you okay?" the voice continued, "its okay...its me, your mom"

I let out a deep breath, my fear settled, then disappeared. I unlocked the door and opened it with a smile.

"Ven, come out, there is no need to be scared," Mom tried to comfort me.

"Pssshh. I wasn't scared...i was just testing you",I lied.

She just laughed

"Well okay, I have to go to work and ill be home really late. There's breakfast on the table," she was starting to rush out the house.

"Alright," I laughed.

Mom ran slowly to the door to make sure that she wasn't going to be late for work. As soon as she reached the door, the doorbell rung.

"That's for you", she yelled opening the door,"Good morning you two...Venetia is in the kitchen eating. I left a list of rules for her because right now she is mentally unstable. So if any emergency occurs from her just call me, my job is down the street...Oh and don't be offended if she doesn't talk to you when you try to communicate with her because she can be socially awkward. Anything else you want to know is on Venetia's rules on the counter."

My mom is now out the door. The two strangers just walked in my house. I hope they don't try to talk to me because i'm not saying squat.

"You have a really nice home, Venetia," The babysitter complimented.

i just nodded my head and continued to eat my breakfast.

The other stranger walked towards me. he looked a couple of years older then me... but its possible we can be the same age.

"Do you talk at all?" he asked tilting his head

I nodded again. I grabbed a napkin and a pen off the counter and starting communicating with him.

'Do you know how to sign?' I asked.

"Yep", he signed, laughing to himself.

"Alright then. Now we can communicate." I smiled.

This kid might seem weird, but its a really god chance that we can become friends.
