I finally get to start heading home after a long twelve-hour shift at work. The last thing I have to do is lock up the front door to the little bike shop that my family has owned for six generations.
"Alright, now I get to go start the two-mile long walk to my house and feed my little brother and sister, so they can go to sleep and get up early in the morning for school.".
As I am walking down the long narrow sidewalk I start to look and realize how beautiful the stars are when there is no moon out in the sky. I'm walking, not even paying attention to what's in front of me because I am to busy looking at the stars. WHAM!!! yep there I was face to face hugging a lamp post like it was my best friend leaving to go to college. After I unwrapped myself from the lamp post, I shook myself off and began walking again, this time being sure of my surroundings. After what seemed like miles hours I finally reached my home. As I go to unlock the front door I realize that it has been left unlocked.
"Ugh, what did I tell these damn kids about leaving the door unlocked when I am at work.".
I open the door and in the pitch black, I manage to find the light switch to the front hallway. I hang my jacket on the coat rack that my grandmother gave me as a housewarming gift when I decided to buy this place. I start walking down the hallway until I get to my bedroom. I open the door and flip the light switch to the left of the doorway." I am so happy to be home.". I walk in and set my backpack on the floor next to my dresser and grab my sleep clothes which consist of some athletic shorts and a solid black tee shirt with the logo of my favorite vlogger, "ScaryRetro", on the chest, and some long black socks.
I step into my bathroom, set my clothes on to the sink/counter and I turn the water on to the shower. after I turn on the water I quickly close the shower curtain so I won't get water all over the floor. As I am letting the water heat up I began to undress, I mean I hope people undress when they get in the shower because if they didn't that would be really weird and uncomfortable taking a shower with clothes on. shortly after I finish undressing I step into the shower and gasp in amazement of how relaxing the hot water is as it hits my back and rolls down my body. I then remember that I am in here to get clean and not to just stand there and relax. I reach for the clean washcloth in the corner of the shower then grab the bar of soap next to the washcloth. after I get the washcloth all nice and soapy I start to wash the filth off of my body. I finally finish washing my body and my hair I step out of the shower after turning off the water and began drying myself off with my towel.
shortly after I put on my clothes and head out of the bathroom and bedroom into the kitchen so I can start dinner for my brother and sister.
"Hmm, what is something quick and easy to cook that both if they will enjoy.".
I start searching around the kitchen until I find myself grabbing a pizza out of the freezer.
"This will have to do, I am too exhausted to make anything special for these kids.".
I call them into the kitchen to come and get their food. as I began to place the slices of pizza on the two plates I start to wonder why they haven't come into the kitchen yet. I call them once more and place the plates on the kitchen table. After a couple of minutes have passed I began to worry.
As I am walking down the hallway I stop and open the door to my little brother's bedroom. There was no one in the room but sure enough, the room was completely trashed like always. I closed the door to Machitis's room and figured that he was hanging out with his sister Prinkipissa. I finally get to her room and open the door surprisingly her light was off. As I go to turn on the light I hear a small cough on the ground in front of me. I quickly flip the light switch on and look down to see my little sister laying on the ground with bruises all over her face and her holding her hand over a stab wound on her stomach. I drop to the floor as fast as I can and grab my little sister and wrap her in my arms. As I look into her eyes despite bearly being able to see with all the tears in my eyes she begins to mumble something. "H..he to him," she said to me as she took her last breath and laid her lifeless body in my arms.
