“Yeah, I saw it in the basement, but I don’t know if it is still down there though. I finished that passage you wanted me to read. Where do you want me to leave it?” I asked, shifting slightly. “That’s alright, we will find it. Keep the book, dear. Consider it a replacement for your doll. We will see you soon,” Maria responded as Lily and her left, closing the shop behind her. It took only an hour for them to come back with the items in hand. Before I knew it the day was over, and I was snug in bed asleep. “Rae, get up!” Nicole whimpered as she woke me up, shaking me. “What?” I mumbled, blinking up at her, bleary eyed. “I saw that creepy lady, Rae! She’s in my room, my chest hurts so much!” she cried while clutching her chest as she dropped heavily to the floor. “Mom, get in here! It’s Nicole!” I screamed, kneeling next to my sister as I heard sudden thuds of footsteps rushing from our parent’s room.
