I opened door wide open. And I tensed when saw my mother.

"Mum! I'm back from school! Oh and I brought kids who will be staying with us for a while!" I said putting my heavy bag down.

"Oh hi,honey sooo it's open school again?" My mother asked showing an expression I barely see. Smiling.

" Yeah...." I looked at my mom weirdly. Thinking what she ate to make her act this way.

I smiled at my mom of her changed attitude. Wait  ..is she being nice because if the unexpected visitors?  Or is it really unexpected?

I didn't seem to care. I decided to go with it.

"This year I'm assigned to them. This is Lucy,Peter,Susan,and Edmund"

"Oh,hello! I'm Julia's mother. All of you are welcome here! You must be having a hard time carrying those bags! Julia will bring you to your rooms,so you can drop them and eat dinner. Right Julia?" my mom said looking concerned.

I stared at her for a couple seconds. Blinking.

My mom had always been in a bad mood ever since my sisters passed away. The next day my dad left for war which made it all worse. I can't imagine my life without dad. I already lost my sisters and I can't let another family member die. I don't know what would mom feel if that would happen. I know under my mom's smile is worry and sadness.

My mom's smile suddenly turned to a frown."Julia!" my mom snapped "I said bring them to their rooms,"

"Right," I replied.  I started to walk upstairs, the Pevensies  behind me. 

Lucy bumped into me"Your Mum is very kind by the way."

I didn't know how I felt about that about that. My mom has a big heart and she just... Doesn't show it.

I just smiled at Lucy.

"Edmund,Peter you can stay here,in the guest room." I say. While both boys coming fastly inside. "Y-" before I could continue to what I was saying,Peter closed the door shut. Just liked that.

okayyy.

Let's get this over with. I wanted to feel my soft,comfy bed and my pillow that I would always drool on.

I decided to continue but Lucy and Susan, who thought was beside me, disappeared.

I turned around. And luckily I saw them. I can't find a kid in this big house.

They stared at the door beside the guest room which had strange markings carved on the door. The door looked strangly odd. I remember when I was young what ever those carvings meant,if they did have meaning to it. It had a Lion as the center and around it were severel carved leaves.

"What's this room?" Lucy asked in awe, touching the strange door marks.

My eyes widened not knowing  what to do.

Should I tell my family's secret?

Or should I not?

I let out a sigh.

"My mother forbade me to enter that room when I was little I think till now. There's an old wardrobe in there that my mother keeps. It was made from a tree that has fallen many years ago. I loved that tree, It would always make me feel magical." I say as I walked closer to her and Susan.

"Wow" Lucy and Susan says staring deeply to the door marks...

I wonder what they're thinking about..
