Grandad's Secret ✔️

That won't hurt me

“Mom?” I called and she looked up at me weakly. Her hands were tied up to the ceiling and her mouth was covered, she was sweating and out of breath and she looked so weak.

If granddad hadn't killed her, she would've died anyways because there was shortage of oxygen in this place. I wonder how long she's even been here.

I walked towards her and she winced when I removed the tape over her mouth then I hugged her as tears poured from my eyes.

“L-Luna.” She stuttered. “Y--ou h-ha-have to go, or he'll k-kill y-you,” she said weakly as tears ran down her face.

“Mom, granddad was possessed but he's okay now, we bro--”

“We?” She asked cutting me off.

“Bec and I,” I answered.

“How about Jenny?” She asked “she's dangerous” she added.

“We know,” I said “we brought an exorcist so that's what they're doing now” I added.

“Let's get you out of here” I said as I tried to loosen the rope, but I couldn't, it was really thick and tight so I tried looking around for anything I could use to cut it.

“L-Luna?” My mom called and I turned to her. Her eyes were fixed somewhere so I followed her line of sight and saw granddad coming towards us with a saw.

“G-granddad?” I called as I shivered, he was getting closer and my mom's whimpers increased.

I couldn't do anything, run, scream...nothing. My brain couldn't process anything and I swear, nothing mattered anymore to me right now. If my mom dies, I wasn't going to struggle to live again, I wouldn't care what happens to me.

“Are you okay?” I asked him and he turned to me, very few centimeters away from my mom, I felt so helpless.

“Yeah of course, why not?” He answered as he raised the saw.

“What are you doing?!” I screamed, the tears running down and my knees became weak.

“Cutting the rope,” he answered looking at me confusingly with his hands still in the air.

My mom's head fell as she heaved a relief sigh and I finally slumped.

When he had cut the rope successfully, my mom's wrists were so red and bruised, she rubbed them a little and winced then she looked up at the guilty face of her father.

“I am so s-sorry.” He cried and my mom hugged him, holding him tightly as he shook, crying his eyes out.

Few seconds later, we heard a loud thud and I raised my head up as we all looked at each other with the same expression.

Jenny

We walked as fast as we could back into the house and I gasped at the sight in the living room. Matthew was bleeding from his nose, Rebecca was on the floor wincing in pain and Jenny was choking Chris.

“Bec” I said and rushed to her.

“She's too strong,” Bec said coughing and winced in pain and I pitied her, then an idea came to mind.

“What if you try talking to her?” I asked and she stared at me like I was dumb and she was going to beat me up any second from now ,I would have laughed if we weren't in this situation right now.

“I mean if you could try talking to your mom, not Lisa.” I corrected and she let out a silent “oh” and looked like she was thinking it through.

“Mom?” Bec called as she stood up from the floor.

No reaction

"Mom I know you can hear me, so listen to me!” Bec shouted and Jenny's hand dropped from Chris' neck and he fell to the floor, choking then she turned around in Bec's direction.
