Tangled Ties

Chapter 2: Who?

I walked to the front yard. A man and a woman were watering the plants.

They aren't my parents. Who are they? Are they thieves or new servants?

Slowly and steadily I walked to the front door, making sure they didn't see me. I had to hide from them in case they were thieves.

I went inside the house. The interiors were all ours, the new sofa set we bought, the TV, including the flower vases. Of course, it'll be same it's my house after all. I laughed at my own thoughts. I checked the kitchen but no one was there. I went upstairs. My parents' room was opened. They never left it open when they were out. Which meant they were inside the room. Thank God!

I smiled with the thought of meeting mama papa and Ellie. I entered the room and got disappointed. The room was vacant.

"Let's get changed first." I heard the woman saying. And within moments I heard them climbing the stairs. I had to hide!

UNDER THE BED!!!

I crawled under the bed. Thank god I made it on time.

The man and the woman came inside the room.

Wait! Why am I hiding in my own house? My subconscious mind asked me.

There are enough reasons:

One- I have no idea who they are. 

Two- I don't know where my parents are.

Three- They are two in number and are stronger than me.

Four- I am injured and can't defend myself.

Okay okay fine! My subconscious stopped me from thinking of more reasons.

Listening to the way talked they seemed like a newly married couple. Now don't ask me what they were talking about, guess it yourself hehe! And I swear I didn't see anything after all I was under the bed LOL!

Jokes apart why were they in my house in my parents' room when my parents were not around?

After what felt like 15 minutes they got out of the room. I too crawled out.

I don't know why I was less sacred than before. Maybe I felt as if they were good people. I kept on looking at them through the gap between the banister. They started having breakfast. Looking at food I realized I hadn't eaten anything in the last 24 hours. I remembered eating with Bunny and his family on the way to home.

I just kept on staring at them, hiding myself very well. After finishing their breakfast, they went out, locking the main door. I went to the balcony to see them going out. Both of them got inside the car and drove away. Last night, was it their car in the garage?

After watching them leave I went towards my room and boom! It was locked!

Sighing, I went to the kitchen, I was hungry. There was nothing on the table. I had to eat something from the fridge. I went near the fridge and looked at my hands. Those wounds seemed deep.

"If only I had super powers. I'd have opened the fridge just by staring at it." I muttered staring at the fridge.

And before I even reacted, the fridge was opened. All by itself, I didn't even touch it.

I took a few steps back. I was scared. How did the door open? Was I dreaming again? I looked around the kitchen it was just me. And it was impossible for wind to open the fridge.

All of sudden I got chills all over my body. I felt as if someone was watching me from behind. I was so scared to turn around. My heart was about to fail.
