Loving spirits

Ghostmates (part 1)

UNI POV
"Ma look at the house it's huge!!!" I pointed to the new house from inside the car, "yeah and the best part it's for only us two" I honestly couldn't contain myself I just wanted to jump out of the car right now and explore the entire house, the house was in a dark blue color and there was also a forest in the back it was really cool, my ma stopped the car and look at me "ok uni what did I say about going outside?" I think for a second " you said to never go into the forest and to stay in the front yard if I go outside" I give a confident smile, "right, now while I go unpack for the house why don't you grab your stuff and check out your new room" my mother gave me a big smile, "ok!!" I grab my bags from the trunk and run into my new house, the moment I enter the house I take a long deep breath of fresh air, I went up stairs and started to look for my room it took a long time, but after looking through a few rooms I had found mine, the walls were yellow and the floor had a dark brown color I honestly didn't like it, but I guess I could always repaint it maybe into a more nicer color, I started to unpack my things I had gotten hungry, I didn't know if we had anything to eat so I went looking for my ma after searching through most of the house I had noticed that the attic stairs were down, I looked up into the attic it was pitch black it looked very scary, but my hunger took over my fears and I decided to walk up the old attic stairs, the old wood squeaks with every step I take I reach to the top I look out into the void of darkness I noticed that there was a small beacon of light from the back of the room I slowly went into the darkness of the attic with the only source of light was coming from the back I kept walking forward I didn't want to look back believing that If I did I would see some horrific monster or something, darker and darker the room got the beacon of light seemed to get dimmer and dimmer it had become so dim that I could barely see it, but I pressed forward I soon got close to the light the silence of the room was honestly unsettling "Ma are you here?" When I spoke I swore that I could see my own breath, I see something move in the darkness "ma that you?" I took a step back, "UNI!!!" The voiced had made me jumped back a bit, my arm accidentally knocking over some boxes I close my eyes waiting to be killed, "Uni what are you doing up here?!" It had taken me a second, but I had recognized the voice "M-ma" my voice was shaky, "I was hungry so I came up here looking for you" I tried to steady my voice my mother holds out her hand I grab it and she pulls me off the ground "well I was organizing the boxes here, but since you knocked them over I guess I could fix you something" she had a disappointed tone in her voice, I felt bad I was the one who knocked over the boxes just so I could get something to eat "I can organize the boxes while you go cook" I give a confident smile, my mother looks at me "ok fine, but just be careful some of this stuff came from the previous family and some of it is very fragile" I gave a quick nod and started to organize the boxes, some of the boxes were labeled like "stuff for kitchen", "non fiction books", "fiction books", "sport equipment" and many others, but one had seem to caught my attention, it was labeled with a black marker and says "Toms stuff" I don't know why, but I looked into the box, it had a lot of stuff in it like a bunch of books, an old harmonica, and an old looking smiley mask, it was pretty creepy the mask had a muster yellow tint, the once pearly white teeth was covered in dirt and looked like the teeth of someone who smokes, the inside of the mask was stained with something, but I couldn't tell what, it may sound odd, but I felt really bad for the mask being kept up in the attic in a box all the way in the back like it was trash, I decided that I should bring the mask with me and try to fix it so I put the box of "Toms stuff" to the side and got back to organizing the other boxes.
