"It's just some dumb dolls. " Ashton huffs once the two come back with dolls in their hands. He doesn't get why it was such a big deal that the dolls were missing. Maybe it would've be better for her; she'd be forced to grow up. And in this house of horrors, a little maturity wouldn't hurt the most vulnerable guest at Indianwood Mansion.
"Then why did we find them in your room? "Macie interrogates harshly, glaring at both Calum and Ashton as meanly as she could.
Calum becomes more alert once he heard of the allegations being thrown at him by the young girl before him. The tiredness that once weighed his frame has vanished. An unreadable one expression overtakes the boy's face. He leans forward in his seat and stares straight at Macie.
"What are you going about little one?" He directs the question at the accuser. His focus is not on the elder sister who is being ominously quiet behind her. Her head is lowered and she has not uttered a word since coming down the stairs.
"My dolls were missing, and now we know that you took them. " Her childish bony finger is pointing directly at Calum as she spoke, eying him down with max intimidation.
Anger becomes the dominant emotion when the last syllable escapes from the child's mouth.
"What the hell?" Redness forms on the face of Calum. "I did not. "
The rest of the remaining houseguests tunes into the confrontation in bewilderment. No one thought the seemingly innocent Calum is capable of such a devious accusation.
"What is she talking about, Calum?" Simoné pipes in worriedly, expressing concern for her cared-about friend. Her droopy blue eyes gaze back and forth between Macie and the alleged thief.
"He took her dolls. " Stephanie finally speaks out to Simoné, voice ringing a solemn tune.
"I did not!" Calum counters with an aggressive edge to his words. He rises to his feet.
"How did the damn dolls get in your possession then Calum?" Stephanie walks up to him and stares him down with hurt in her eyes.
"How am I supposed to know? I didn't steal them. "
"So they just magically appeared on your side of the room then. " Stephanie suggests sarcastically with her arms crossed.
Ashton breathed, "Calum I can't believe you'd do something like that. "
Stephanie shakes her head and her vision blurred. She takes a deep intake of breath before moving onto Ashton with a ironic chuckle.
"You really shouldn't be talking. " She says venomously.
"And what's that supposed to mean?" Ashton replied.
"I found Raven's bag in your room. " Stephanie held up the turquoise drawstring bag that contain the belongings of their deceased friend by the strings.
Calum and Ashton both look at each other strangely before Calum decides to retort, "How do you know it was even me then? Ashton could be the klepto!"
"Now hold on a second. " Ashton gets in Calum's face defensively; he is angered by Calum's claim . "What's that supposed to mean?"
"It means," Calum shoves his friend. "You're the thief. Not me " He adds, spitting viciously at Ashton for his accused crime. Ashton then reacts by shoving him back. A fight ensued between the former friends. A punch or two is thrown, black eyes have been conceived, and other minor injuries including a busted lip and scarred face have been marked on the two.
