The tunel

The House through the Tunel

As I walked from school I felt like I had a mission. First, was to figure out if Leo was trustworthy. Second, if my suspicion of people living in the abandoned mansion was true. In order to see if my suspicion is correct then I would have to go through the woods which isn't what I wanted but oh well. My mission was simple yet difficult to put in action. Walking up the hill I make a decision that will probably piss my mother off but oh well you got to do what you got to do. Now I have to think of a plan to not get caught when sneaking out the back door of my house and onto the woods, I go. I enter the house and see my siblings already there with my father playing around watching a movie. The movie was about mystery and crime solving. My siblings and my father were fanatics on these genres. Then the movie is paused and my father turns to me.

"Lesly how was your day? Did anything weird or strange happen?" My father asks me while getting up and walking towards me.

"Yeah, don't worry dad I am alright. School was the same as always boring for others and exciting to learn new things for me," I said

"Good that's very comforting to hear coming from my eldest daughter of our family," my father said.

"Yeah thanks, dad" I replied back to him.

"Some old friends will be visiting us. I met them just recently. We have been meaning to meet up but time has not been on our side and we have been postponing it for a few days. So just a heads up they will come Friday. Which is in two days. I want all of you on your best behaviors especially the two who are watching me from behind the sofa" father said looking at my sisters. 

My sisters nodded a yes towards my father who was just relieved at them agreeing to behave as much as they can. Knowing my sisters they won't have a hard time doing so since all three of us have been calm and collected when visits came over. Some coworkers of them often visit us and we have always obeyed my father in behaving with excellent behavior.

"I will go upstairs to study for a test tomorrow father and then go to sleep. I hope you have a wonderful night as well as you do mother. good night everyone and sweet dreams" I say as I go up to both my parents and give them both a kiss on the cheek. I go up to my sisters and do the same.

"Goodnight and have sweet dreams as well my dear daughter," my father and mother say in unison.

"Goodnight sis I hope you have a terrible night. he. he. he." my sister from the middle whisper yells unto my ear.

"Goodnight buby I hope you have very sweet dreams and not bad ones," my little sister tells me as well as hugging me.

I wish I could dream sweet dreams and not terrible and gruesome ones as well my dear sister. I think to my self and start heading upstairs I begin to doubt if I can even go to sleep first before I go into the woods later on when nobody is awake. I hope I can figure out what is happening to me. Figure out what is the connection between the woods and my dreams. Why does the woods seem familiar to me and why do I feel as Leo Sarudabi and that mansion has something to do with all of this happening to me. Its as if the dreams are being specific as to why my life feels empty and have a hole in my heart. My heart is telling me to leave everything as it is and not to try and figure out the truth for it will hurt me. At the same time, my head is telling me that I need to do this. I need to find the truth as to why am I always empty. As to why these dreams, the woods, Leo, and the mansion are all connected by a thin thread. All of this is causing me to doubt is my life that I have been living all this time is not for real and just some make believe fantasy to cover up the truth of what really is happening around me. 

It's already time for me to go into these woods and figure out at least what is so special, terrifying, but yet so beautiful about it. I hope my mother and father do not wake up before I come back from these woods. And into the woods, I go.
