Silence filled the dark area. The only sound that I could make out was the intense beating of my heart. It felt as if the heart were on the verge of leaping out of my chest.
I breathed heavily. I did not move a muscle. I did not say anything. It was as if I were paralyzed. Struck by lightning.
I quickly reacted and shielded my eyes as bright light came on. The light lit up the area.
"Hi, Gretel!"
"Yah!" I spun around...
...and faced a hideous, disgusting....
Nah. I am just messing with you. It was no creature. It was my twin.
I shook a little. "Do not scare me like that!" I said.
He chuckled and tilted his head to the side. "How can you be scared?" he wondered. "We are in a house. It is just us and that boy. And I am sure that the boy will not harm us."
I was about to reply when I felt something shaking in my pocket. I shoved my hand into the pocket of my blue shorts and pulled out my cellphone. I glanced at the screen.
And had a worried expression on my face.
"Who is it?" Hansel said. "Who is calling you?"
I kept my eyes locked on the screen and lowered the phone.
"Our parents," I replied. "Mom and Dad."
