Thixophobia

Chapter 7

Eric was yelling and crying. After he cried his heart out, Hazel offered him some water. Hazel said "What happened Eric? " Eric murmured while sobbing "Ms. Kelly... She... She... "
Hazel asked "Ms. Kelly what?" Eric could not really speak what happened. Eric said "Leave it. You won't understand"
Hazel sighed and replied in a deep voice "I do... "

Suddenly flashback starts... In continuation to Chapter 2

While Uncle Pablo was changing, Hazel turned on the TV. She tuned-in to her favourite cartoon.
She settled on the bed folding her knees at the edge and putting elbows on the pillow, resting her chin on the palms.

Uncle Pablo spoke from the washroom,
"Hazel! Lower the volume or your mom will be up and she would scold both of us."

Uncle Pablo was watching her for sometime and then sat beside her.

Hazel was laughing at the funny cartoon, while Uncle Pablo had something else on his mind.

"Hazel come let's change your dress."

But Hazel seemed to be too busy to respond. Uncle Pablo patted her back and repeated the same line. Hazel didn't respond again.

This time Uncle Pablo quietly removed her white socks. Hazel still busy watching cartoon. Uncle Pablo touched her little legs, and moved his hands up and down trying to feel her cold legs.

Slipping his hands inside her frock Uncle Pablo continued to feel her body. He felt her butts while Hazel still didn't notice. Uncle Pablo "Hazel! Can I remove your dress?" Hazel said "No! Let me watch this, it is really funny."

Uncle Pablo slowly lifted her flared white dress, removed her white little panty kissing her butts, feeling with his hands and started to lick her...
Little Hazel could not really understand what was happening she was busy watching the cartoon. Uncle Pablo continued "Hazel, you like it?"
Hazel just kept laughing at the cartoons, failing to understand the difference between caressing, cuddling and what really was happening to her.

Uncle Pablo took that as a comfort level of the child and told her "See there's some insect getting on you. I will just catch it for you. Don't move, don't shout or else the insect will bite."
Hazel whispered back "Ok, Uncle Pablo."
Uncle Pablo lowered his pants and...

Hazel "Ah! Uncle Pablo it's paining."
Uncle Pablo "Don't worry it will just take a while."
Hazel realised something was hitting inside her "What are you doing? Where's the insect? "
Uncle Pablo said "It's gone inside, I am trying to catch hold of it. You...just quietly...stay like this, ...okay? Don't shout else...the insect will...bite you....inside."

Hazel kept crying in pain but didn't shout because the insect could have bit her. She stuffed the pillow in her mouth so that she doesn't scream. As Uncle Pablo stopped.
Hazel said in tiresome feeble voice "Uncle Pablo, what's pouring out? "
Uncle Pablo panting "Oh, it's the blood, I finally killed it."
Little Hazel fell unconscious. Uncle Pablo cleaned up and changed Hazel. He tucked her in the bed and wrapped a blanket, switched off the TV and lay on the couch.

Next morning, Mrs. Matthews came to the guest room. She saw Uncle Pablo sleeping on the couch and Hazel sleeping on the bed. She quietly went to Hazel, kissed on her forehead, picked up her clothes and quietly went out of the room. Uncle Pablo woke up and took a shower. He immediately got ready and went out of the room. Mr. and Mrs. Matthews were having coffee.
Mr. Matthews said "Good morning Pal." While Mrs. Matthews offered him some coffee she asked "I hope Hazel let you rest and wasn't a trouble last night."
"No no no, absolutely not. I rather enjoyed." smirked Uncle Pablo "Oh well, I have to go for my work. I told you I am here for a project. I will be late in the evening. See you then."

Uncle Pablo went to his room, picked up his briefcase and left. Waving at Mr. Matthews he said "Hazel will be upset as she wakes up to not find me around, tell her I will be back in the evening and then I will play with her."
Mr. Matthews laughed... "He is so attached to Hazel and she's also fond of him."

Hazel woke up looking for Uncle Pablo. She came out rubbing her tiny eyes and said "Where's Uncle Pablo?"
Mrs. Matthews replied "Darling, he has gone out for work. Now you should get ready and have some breakfast."

In the evening, Hazel was sitting at the door eagerly waiting for Uncle Pablo to come back. As soon as she saw Uncle Pablo she went running to him swinging around his neck. Hazel was constantly talking to him about her day. They entered the drawing room and Mrs. Matthews asked Hazel to get down "Hazel... Get down sweetheart, let Uncle Pablo freshen up. Come along with me, let's lay dinner for everyone."

Uncle Pablo smiled and went to relax. He came back and everyone was waiting for him at the dining table. Hazel jumped up "Uncle Pablo, see mom has made your favourite egg curry and I helped mom to make the tarts for you."
Hazel went on with her stories and everyone was laughing at her cute little talks. Just then, she said "Uncle Pablo is a Hero. He killed an insect last night."

Uncle Pablo coughed " No, it was just a spider." Mr. Matthews " Ohk! And then... Tell the whole story now."
Uncle Pablo turned pale.

Friends, happy to have you here again. Thanks for all the appreciation. I will soon be coming with Chapter 8...This Chapter was a turning point in the story so it took me longer...
I know some of you may be feeling pissed off with this chapter but this is the beginning of the story and a brutal reality.
Will Hazel tell what happened to her parents? What will Mr. and Mrs. Matthews do after they get to know?
