Chapter 31 - Closet

I've been reading books all day when finally I heard my stomach growled. I look at my watch and found out that it's already six-thirty in the evening.

I hurriedly took my book and went towards the door.

"I shouldn't be here," I mumbled.

I was about to open the door when the doorknob won't work. I couldn't rotate it, even when I am already using both of my hands on it.

I stopped when I heard my cabinet's door, creaking.

I close my eyes and look away.

"Little sunny water, sleeping on the corner," a voice, a girl's voice, singing.

"Oh, God, this isn't happening again," I whispered

I can't do anything but hold my breath and close my eyes.

Then I heard footsteps, someone came out from the closet.

Then it stopped,

it stopped.

I slowly open my eyes, just to see a pair of bare feet in front of me.

I want to scream, but I couldn't.

Until everything went black.

"Wake up, wake up. Wash your face and make a bumble shake,"

I open my eyes as I heard someone singing.

Only to find darkness, I can hardly move.

I am locked in a narrowed place.

"No, it can't be," I muttered.

"Little sunny water, sleeping in the corner,"

Everything came back to me, as I heard her voice.

"Hey! Jillian, I am going to hide and you should find me, okay?" Lily said

"Okay," I said, only to make her stop bugging me.

I saw her went up to the second floor, I know she's going to hide in one of the rooms there.

But I didn't bother to look for her immediately, I want to win the race I am with.

I look at the clock and saw that it's been an hour since she went up.

"What? Isn't she coming down?" I asked

"Hey! Lily, come on. It's been an hour," I shouted.

I decided to look for her after a minute.

I searched every room, called out her name oftentimes.

Only to find her in my room, inside my cabinet.

Pale, cold and not moving.

I came back to my senses when I heard her again.

"Point to the east and point to the west, and point to the girl that you like best,"

Then it stopped.

I want to cry, but I covered my mouth with my hands while my body is shivering.

Then the door flung open.

"I found you, Jillian,"
