The Cursed Doll

Chapter 4: I Believe You

Chloe POV

I decided to go to Layla's house. I just wanna check Molly and all about what is going on. Jack told me strange things about that doll. I don't know anymore and it makes me more frightened on dolls especially Molly.

I pressed the doorbell when I reached their house. Later on, she went out of the house and ope.ned the gate. I get in.

"Chloe, what brought you here?", Layla asled and I don't know what to answer. I don't wanna tell her the truth. She loves that doll. If I tell her the truth, maybe that will cause our fight.

"Nothing. I just wanna visit my bestfriend. By the way, I already have the list of my classmates who'll join the overnight camping. It's just sad to say that we're few.", Layla looked at the list.

Girls:

1. Layla Audrey

2. Chloe Nicole

3. Justin Nichole

4. Mary Jane

5. Kyllie Mae

 

Boys:

1. Jack Aiden

2. Jaiden Rock

3. Asher

4. Jaydee Mark

5. Connor

 

But I think it's nicer if the others won't come. They will just cause trouble. It's safer for us, I think. I sat on one of the sofas in their house.

"Chloe, I'll prepare food. Just wait here."

"Sure.", I noticed that Molly is sitting beside me. She's not there a while ago. Oh! Maybe I just didn't notice her a while ago.

Suddenly, I noticed that she's moving. She produces sound like a moving object. I looked at her carefully. Nothing has changed. I ignored her. Later on, I looked at her again. I was shocked. Am I seeing right? Molly is now looking at me. I moved farther from her. I'm still looking at her. Suddenly, her eyes moved.

"Ahhh!", I shouted to catch Layla's attention. She went near me. She is hurrying.

"What happened?"

"The doll. Her eyes moved."

"What are you talking about?", she asked confused.

"She's staring at the kitchen then her head turned around to stare at me then her eyes moved towards the direction of the kitchen."

"Oh, c'mon! Don't scare me. It's not funny."

"I ain't making you laugh, Layla! I'm serious right now. Don't you get it?! That doll is cursed!"

"Are you saying that my doll is haunted?!"

"Yeah! That's what I mean!", I shouted then got Molly. I went out of the house and throwed that cursed doll in the trashcan.

"What have you done, Chloe?!"

"Don't let the time reach that the doll will kill!", I shouted.

"That's impossible!", she shouted at me. She opened the trashcan and she got Molly back.

"No! Don't touch that doll! I know that you, too, are feeling strange of that doll, ain't I correct?!"

"That's not true!"

"What about Jack!?", it took a few seconds for her to go back to reality. After she heard the name Jack, she went out of the Earth.

"Those things are just your apparitions!", Layla shouted at me again.

"If you don't wanna believe me, then fine! But don't you dare to bring that doll in our overnight camping!", I warned. I went out of the gate and I decided to go home. That's not my imagination. I saw what I saw and I'm pretty sure of it. That doll is not ordinary. It's a demon, I'm sure.

Jack POV

I am in a taxi right now and I wanna go home. Suddenly, my phone rang. I looked at my phone to see who is calling.

Chloe

Calling....

 

I answered the call even though I don't want to. I just wanna tell her that it's alright for her to contact my number.

"What?", I asked.

"I think all of your stories are true. Layla's doll is haunted. It is a demon."

"C'mon, Chloe. I told you that's just my imagination."

"No, Jack. I'm sure of it. But you don't wanna believe me."

"Chloe, that's impossible. Please stop this non-sense story. It doesn't make sense."

"You, too, won't believe me?"

"That's not it. I'm just saying that you don't have to focus your mind on scary things. If that doll is cursed, it can't hurt you."

"You're right.", she ended the call. I decided to go to Layla's house to check for her condition. When I'm in there, I pressed the doorbell. She went out.

"Jack. What are you doing here?", she asked.

"Nothing. I just wanna check your condition. How are you?"

"I'm fine. Let's get inside.", we wemt inside of the house and I saw Molly sitting on one of the sofas. I didn't sit where the doll is sitting.

"I've heard from Chloe that the two of you quarelled."

"That's true."

"What happened?", I noticed that she looks sick but she is not. That's just because of their fight."

"She said that my doll is cursed. I love my doll and I don't want others to do that to her."

"I believe you.", I said then I hugged her. I'm taking her side just not to cause our fight.
