solitaire: The Living Dummy

Ch.5

Tony's P. O. V.

"Awwwww!", I yawned loudly.

I opened my eyes and saw Juan laying on the floor with his whole face in the ground. He looked like if someone had knocked him out.

"Juan... Juan wake up!", I shouted as I was shaking him.

"Ugh what do you WANT!", he shouted back.

"Dude wake up, we have to keep on looking for the dummy!"

"Oh yeah, but right now?"

"Yesss, RIGHT NOW!!", I said raising my voice.

"Ok, ok, chillax is just um..," he looked at his watch, "...1:43."

He finally stood up and we both made our way down stairs. The smell of salmon and bacon was filling the air. I was in love.

"Good morning Mom.", I said still sleepy.

"Morning sweetheart, you too Juanito", she replied.

I totally forgot to mention that I have a big sister and a little brother. Their name's are Sofia and Andres. Well Sofia is staying this whole weekend at a friend's house and Andres is at grandma's. Well, whatever. Dad's in the army so its only me and Mom plus Juan. The whole point is that someone was seated in front of me and Juan reading the newspaper, of course it wasn't Mom so the first thing it came to my mind was 'THE DUMMY!!!' . I slammed he newspaper down and surely enough there was the dummy, sitting with his creepy green eyes and its ugly grin.

"Mom!", I shouted.

Mom turned around and asked, "Yes Tony, what's wrong? Why you so loud?!"

"Umm... Mom... How did that happen?", I asked pointing at the dummy.

"I don't know, it was like that when I woke up. You must of left it there.", Mom said.

"Well, none of us did so that proves the doll is alive!", Juan said out loud.

"Yeah kids keep on with that annoying imagination of yours. Oh yeah and I checked one of his pockets and it had a name card. Check.", Mom said.

Me and Juan both exchanged looks and checked its pockets. We found a little gold brown paper and it said EMI. It also had a description in the back. It said- Emi is a very special dummy. He's got something that no other dummies have, the ability of coming alive.

Me and Juan looked at each other then turned at mom, which wasn't even paying attention, she was barely putting the food on the plate.

"M-m-mom, it says here that the dummy can come ALIVE!", I said in a trembling voice.

"MY GOD ANTONIO!!!", Mom said fiercely, "Let me see your stupid little note!"

She grabbed it, took a look at and, "Ay mijo tan chulo!", she said showing me the paper.

Nothing was written on it.
