My brother is asleep in our room. The house is dark and gloomy. I got up to get some Frosted Flakes for an early breakfast. Then out of nowhere a dim light appeared at the kitchen.
Apparently someone in my family must've decided to open the windows, because someone sneaked into our house. The man stared at me in a creepy smile while holding a lantern. We stood there in silence. Then the man moved an inch closer to me. Another inch. Closer. Closer until he can reach my left ear. I stood still, not making a sound. He whispered to me:
"Do you have some Cheerios in your pantry?"
I whispered back, "No, we haven't ate Cheerios in a long time."
Silence.
Then the man moved forward towards me, face to face. His eyes started to widen and his smile turned twisted while showing his crooked, jagged teeth.
He spoke in a raspy voice, kinda like Slappy from the Goosebumps series.
"You'll receive the treatment tomorrow, like all the rest."
He fished for something gleamy from his belt. It was a knife, covered with crimson ooze dripping from the knife to the floor.
"If you don't give me my Cheerios immediately I'll-"
I took a dash all the way to my room. I slammed the door, locked it, barricaded myself with a few resources. I took a deep breath as I hide inside my closet.
I can hear him, still banging at the door louder and louder each time. At this point my brother woke up and was shocked at the not well-made barricade.
"What is this?", my brother said.
"You gotta hide, there's a lunatic inside our house! I dunno how it happened but it did!" I replied.
"I can hear you in there! Are you guys bribing or what?" The lunatic yelled.
One hour has passed. The banging stopped. I checked my room window (which was not open, thank goodness) to see if that man left. Sure enough, he did.
"Coast is clear", I said.
"Phew, thought I was gonna die." My brother replied in relief. "What'd he say anyway?"
I turned to look at him, forgetting that he was asleep this entire time.
"All he said was 'Do you have some Cheerios in your pantry?'" |
