The mysterious room

Episode Two

"GIVE ME BACK MY DOLL" A strange voice echoed in her room. 

Fear gripped Angela as the doll fell freely from her hand. 

Her room was already very dark.... 

She stormed out of the room panting heavily in so much fear. 

She rushed out and went straight to the sitting room where her family were. 

They were all chatting and laughing happily. 

"Does that mean they didn't hear that voice?" She thought as she rushed into the sitting room.

"Momma did you guys hear that voice?" Angela asked shivering in fear. 

They exchanged glances at each other and then turned their gazes at her. 

"What voice?" They chorused as she looked puzzled. 

"You didn't hear that little girl's voice?" Angela asked as I scratched my head. 

"Of course we didn't hear anything" Joel shrugged munching his crunchy chips. 

"And the light? Did it go off?" She asked as they scoffed.

"Off? Nope...." They answered 

"Is it raining? Did you hear thunder and lightning bolt?" She asked as they became confused. 

"What are you talking about Angela?" Mr Fredrick asked her as she gulped. 

"Am scared dad... Let's just leave this house,,, some thing is just not right" Angela cried looking behind in fear. 

"What are you saying Angela?" Her mom queried 

"I heard a voice in my room... A little girl's voice and then my light went off and there was thunder, wind and lightening" Angela explained as they laughed heartily. 

She stared at them in annoyance. 

"How come none of you understand me? Am so sure of what I heard " She said 

"Why would there be lighting when there is a scorching hot sun" Dan teased me. 

"Huh? The sun is shining?" She asked as she walked to the window and opened it. 

"Then what just happened?" She asked no-one in particular. 

"Alright... Let me follow you to your room" Dad and mom said as they walked to my room while I followed them. 

"Open the door" Dad ordered as I shook my head in fear. 

"I'd rather not dad,,, I don't want to go into that room" Angela cried. 

Her mom quickly swing the door open and they walked in. 

To Angela's surprise,,, the light was on and her backpack was still on the bed. 

"What did you say happened?" Her parents asked her as they walked into the room. 

Angela became gobsmacked as she looked puzzled. 

Her bag??? 

Who carried it up? 

And the dark room,,, who put on the light? 

Why are there no voices? 

Her mind got to something immediately.....

The doll......

She quickly rushed forward. 

Yes she saw the doll but it was at the previous position she saw it before picking it up. 

"What the fvck is going on?" She muttered within herself. 

"Oh Angela... Just because you don't want to move into the new house doesn't mean you should make up stories OK" Her dad said as he walked out of the room. 

Angela sat on the bed still battling with her mind. 

"Oh baby... Stop feeling bad,,, you will make new friends soon" Her mom patted her hair. 

"But momma am sure I heard a voice here" Angela said with a gloomy face. 

"You're just being delusional honey... Just freshen up" Her mom said as she walked out of the room. 

"Momma please wait for me" Angela shouted as she rushed out of the house with her mom. 

Her heart kept racing fast. 

"This house is just too mysterious" Angela thought inwardly. 

***********

"The garden is so large" Sonia smiled broadly as she ran around in the garden. 

"Yeah... It is" Angela said as they walked around. 

"And did you still say you don't like this place?" Sonia asked as Angela forced a smile. 

"GIVE ME BACK MY DOLL" The voice rang in her ears as cold shivers ran down her spine. 

"I don't like this place" Angela said 

"You're just a party popper" Sonia rolled her eyes. 

Just then,,, the sighted some people coming towards them. 

It was an old woman and a little girl of Sonia's age. 

They were their only close neighbor....

There are only few houses in the area. 

"Good day ma'am" They greeted the old lady. 

"Oh hi... You're our new neighbours??" She asked with a smile. 

"Yes we are" Angela and Sonia chorused. 

"Hi... Am Becca! This is my grandma but I call her Nana" The girl said cheerfully. 

"Am Sonia.... Hi Nana" Sonia said as she already became friends with the girl.

"Is that your sister?" Becca asked anxiously as Angela waved at her and vice versa. 

"Yeah! My elder sister Angela" Sonia said 

They kept on chatting and laughing happily. 

While Angela seemed to like the old Nana already. 

"Is that where you guys live?" Nana asked as Angela nodded her head. 

"That house???" Nana half yelled in shock and that baffled Angela. 

"What happened to it Nana?" Angela asked 

"It's a dreadful house and....." Nana paused as she could see Angela was already scared. 

"And what Nana?" Angela asked eagerly 

"Oh nothing... It's a cool place,,, welcome to the neighborhood" Nana changed the topic as they shared a laugh. 

And for the first time,,,, Angela got a new friend! 

An old new friend 

************* 

Angela arranged her stuffs into the box and wardrobe especially her special diary. 

Surprisingly,,, she haven't heard the voice again. 

She forced open an old drawer beside her bed. 

It was really old and dusty. 

But she managed to open it. 

Just then,,, she saw a picture frame in the drawer. 

She quickly picked it up.... 

It was the picture of a little girl of about six. 

"ANGELA!" She heard her name and turned around with the picture still in her hand.

She saw the little girl in the picture sitting on the bare ground as blood rolled down from the girl's eyes like tears. 

Fear gripped her..........
