(Yui's POV) It's been 4 hours since I've been in the car. Everytime I glanced at the window, I saw nothing but trees, one by one. The driver was driving in the middle of a forest and I could feel my stomach turning just by the dark aura that this it was giving me. I looked at the window once more and stared at my reflection thinking about what my father said to me.

[Flashback] (Seiji) "You will be living with relatives that I knew for a long time". "What? what are you saying? What do you mean I'll be staying over with some relatives?." (Seiji) "I have to go on a business trip and I can't leave you all on your own." "Seriously? Do you think I'm a little kid? I can handle myself."

(Seiji) "Yui dear, I know you don't like to be treated like a child and that's not my reason why I'm having you stay with relatives it's just that I want you to be looked after because I don't want you to overwhelm yourself when it comes to taking care of the house and church while focusing on school, you are a teenager and your role is to study and grow by learning, all I'm asking is to worry about yourself.

I don't want to leave everything to you because I want you to focus on your role so, please Yui, do this for your father." ".......". That was one of the conversations that I had with my father that I will never forget. I can't believe that I have to stay with a couple of strangers. I don't understand what my father was thinking I mean I understand what he meant it's just that I don't know why it had to be people I didn't know before.

Whatever was going to happen I don't know how I'm going to react but I just hope that things go okay for me and that shit won't go down.  [Time Skip] (???) "Mrs. Komori...Mrs. Komori?!." "Huh?" I opened my eyes and I realized that I had fallen asleep. My head was resting against the window and I yawned then stretched.

"Sorry... I'll get my things." I apologized to the driver and opened the door, not noticing the mansion in front of me since I was still sleepy and I haven't looked up yet until now when I went to grab my things from the trunk. (No way am I actually going to stay there I never thought father would go this far.)

While I was admiring the mansion I quickly came back to my senses after realizing that I had to take out my bags. I leaned in the car and grabbed two bags of mine from the backseat and as I took them out, the driver opened the trunk revealing my suitcase in it. I grabbed the handle and pull it out of the trunk with all my might. (Geez thanks for being a "great help" Mr.driver) I'm not the type to complain but I think that driver should've at least help me take out the suitcase sense it's heavy.

I closed the trunk then thanked the driver. The driver didn't say anything and just drove off leaving me with my things behind. I was a bit taken aback by how he acted but I brushed it off since that wasn't the least of my problem. I turned my head to where the mansion is. (Now then so this is where I'll be staying? father never mentioned anything about the relatives being rich. I should go now, I can't keep those people waiting).

I walked towards the gate and I waited until it opened. [5 Minutes Later] I've been waiting for a bit and the gates haven't open yet. I was getting more nervous not only at the location that I was at but also I was starting to think that maybe I was dropped off at the wrong location. (Maybe no one's home?) I was having a hard time thinking about what I should do when suddenly I notice something I never seen before. I saw that the left gate was slightly open.

Even though it was slightly open the gate still looked closed so it was hardly noticeable. Nervously, I reached out my hand and pushed the gate with all of the strength that I had left. It wasn't enough to push the gate so I used both of my hands and pushed it. Finally, I was able to push the gate open all the way. (It's pretty strange that these people didn't lock the gate. Maybe they knew that I was coming so they left it open for me). While taking a moment to catch my breath I looked up to see the mansion from a closer view.

It looked beautiful and a bit mysterious, It made me curious as to what it looks like inside. After catching my breath I grabbed my luggage and headed towards the mansion. As I was walking to the door, something strange happened all of a sudden and that is that the clouds turned gray. "It's going to rain already? How's that possible? I swear that the clouds were white....wait...something is definitely off".

I looked at the mansion and it just gave out a whole different vibe. It gave me a whole different view of its appearance, It looked like of those creepy mansions that you see in scary movies.
(There's something really wrong here, I don't like what I'm feeling. Am I at the right place?.) I felt a raindrop on my forehead and it started raining.

"I have to run!." I ran over to where was shelter and once I did that's when the rain started to pour harder. "Seriously? just when I was starting to see that this place is creepy". (I can't stay here there's no way I would enter this house. I'm pretty sure that this was a mistake there's no way father would have me stay in such a creepy place. What am I going to do?, I'm not taking any chances of living here. I have to contact father and let him know what's happening)

I opened up my bag and took out my pink flip phone, flipped it open then went to the contacts app and called my father. As I started the call my phone immediately went into voicemail. I hung up and a "no signal" message popped up. I started to panic more, I was having hard time trying to come up with something.

(What am I going to do now? With no signal I can't call my father or even someone else to pick me up. I can't even walk back since this place is too far away). *Sighs* "I'm stuck here, I guess I have no choice..." I turned to where the door was and was about to knock on it when it opened slightly on its own. That immediately was a red flag to me. (I was right about this place being creepy, I can't imagine what it looked like inside). I peeked what's inside and it was pretty dark which made me even more terrified than I was before.

(I can't go in. This isn't good, did father really sent me to a place like this?). While I was lost in thought, thunder struck and that's when I freaked out. Out of panic I quickly grabbed my luggage and dashed inside. I hate thunderstorms they scare the living crap out of me. I was now inside of this creepy mansion. I was going to turn back because of how much afraid I was but then the door closed by itself. Leaving me frightened and scared of what might happen next. [To be continued]
