Chereads / LITTLE JACK / moving isn’t always a good idea

moving isn’t always a good idea

It's been over two decades since Ben and joe disappeared,and kids have been disappearing every year ,until the towns mayor decided to declare the house as a dangerous devils play ground and that no one was allowed to go inside or near the house,they even build a wire fence around just in case some kids decided to get to curios ,and the story of little jack layered quiet for a decade,

....until a new family moved into town(the Jackson family) ,

They moved in from South America 2 months before the 7th of August 2000,the family consisted of,mr and mrs Johnson,there oldest daughter jasmine and her 2 brothers,Philip and kelvin,

(One month before the 7th of July.)

Hey how are you finding your new school? mr Johnson asks his children.

Jasmine:school was fine ,

Philip:she... even have a boyfriend giggle

Kelvin backing his brother up ,his name is josh

Jasmine:stop it his not my boyfriend

The twins:jas got a boyfriend,jas got a boyfriend..... (singing )

jasmine:shut up! His not my boyfriend,

Hey kids enough stop teasing your sister ,his not her boyfriend, now get in the car,they start off and Mr Johnson plays some classical music,and everyone in the car sighs ,

Jasmine:come on dad really,we are back to the 70s now?

Mr Johnson:I don't know what you kids listen to this days,moreover this jam was the shit back in the days,

Jasmine:did you just use the word..... groose ,and FYI we are not in the 70s anymore.

Mr Johnson :well it's my car so just deal with it,(saying that with a smile on his face ,

Jasmine :whatever..and looks the other way ,facing the window.

And everyone looks amused like they just got a visit from the past as they drive past ,the old house,

Kelvin:wow !this house looks so old ,

Philip :and Ugly to..

Kelvin:dad how long do you think this has been ,

Mr Johnson:not really sure,but it does look like it's been here for a long long time,

A few minutes after they reach home,

Mrs Johnson:hey kids how was school?

School was great says Philip ,

And on our way back we so this old creep house it looked like it's been there before anyone existed,

Mrs Johnson:is it that old ,?

Mr Johnson:yes honey,it's very old,

I wounder why it's they put it in a fence,living stone is really such a weird town.

Kelvin :maybe a ghost lived there ,

Everyone laughs come on kelvin, you such things don't exist ,

We should go check it out tomorrow what do you think ?

Yea sure is not like ghosts leave there ,making fun of kelvin,

Hey guys I'm going to the grocery store,I want to get something I'll be soon,

Hey can we come with ,the little brothers ask in excitement it's so boring here ,please!!!! Pretty please 🥺,

She looks at them,debating on whether to take them along or just leave them there with her super boring parents,alright you can come but don't get in my way ,

"Alright kids be safe "says mrs Johnson

Alright mom see you later .

Josh's pov

Leave me along mom ,like what the hell ?

You are always coming home drunk ,

Baby I'm sorry it won't happen again,

But that's what you always say ,storms out of the house slamming the door behind him,

Instead of just standing outside josh decides to go for in hopes of clearing his head ,

Damn why does she always have to drink so much ,the concerned but upset josh talks to himself,

walking face down lost in thought,bumps into jasmine,(literally)

Josh :hey watch where you are going

Jasmine:no you are the one who needs to see where his going, you are the one that bumped into me ,

Josh:im sorry alright ,where are you rushing to anyways?

Jasmine:the grocery but I don't see how that's any of your business,

Josh:well .. you are headed the direction ,the grocery store is this way ,I'll show you ,I guess I can do with some company,

By the way I'm josh ,

Jasmine as they shake hands ,

And who are this two ?

"this are my little brothers,kelvin and Philip" jasmine says,

I have never seen you in town are your around here,

Jasmine:yes just moved in a couple of days ago ,

So how are you finding the place is it something you expected?

Jasmine:not really though I'm enjoying the silence,there isn't much noise compared to Brazil

Josh:well it's been this quiet since I was born ,but it's a very nice place I'm sure you'll like ,

I'll personally be your tour guide what do you say ,deal ?

Jasmine :deal ,

Josh :do here we are ,gesturing at the store

After you ,opening the door for her,

"Thank you "jasmine replies,

The little kids seeing this ,look at each other and both smile in a mischievous way,

Josh try's putting up some small talk as they browse the store ,

So what made you leave Brazil and move here ,

Jasmine:well it was my parade idea to move here ,something about him getting a job here ,helping people and what not ,

Here is what I came for,stirring at the box of donuts,

Kelvin; Yummy ,licking is lips as he says that

Jasmine:boys so you see this ,you want some?

They nod there heads in agreement,

Jasmine:well this are all mine ,

As she walks past them to the counter,

Cashier:that would be four dollars,thank have a good day as jasmine hands over the cash ,

Josh :I guess my job as a tour guide starts now :

Yes sirrr

Okay so the first stop ,the Livingston park which is just next to the living stone museum,I guess those are our first two stops of the day ,

So shall we ?

A few min later there arrive at the park ,

Jasmine and her siblings are store in amusement,

Wow this is beautiful ,

The park was made in 1925 by them we where still colonialised by the British,the park is really old but they still maintain it saying that Livingston is the country's tourist capital everything has to be in place,

So why don't we let the kids have fun while we go over to the museum and take a look at some prehistoric artifacts,

Hey guys stay here and play will be back shortly,

The leave the kids and head to the museum,

Jasmine is amazed by what she sees,

A huge building made out of glass,glowing from the rays of sunlight hitting it,

"Let's go inside "jack says,

The inside is even more beautiful,as ancient artifacts are displayed all over ,

Wow so much history to look at ,that minutes into the museum and jasmine is already seen more than she had ever seen her entire life time,

But one thing grabs her attention,a 10,000 year book ,

"Hey how about this book ,"jasmine asks .

This are is the oldest book in the museum,it is said to contain stories of demons spells and all those superficial stuff ,

I think we are done now let's go check on the kids ,

Yea let's go but her eyes still glued to the both as though as though she was waiting or expecting for something to happen,

Hey kids we back!!

Kelvin hey josh this place is awesome,

"Jasmine can we come here every day " Philip asks .?

Yea sure why not .

Josh:it's time for our next site ,one of the oldest houses in town or as I like to call it ,the creep house of horror,

Jasmine:are you talking about that creep house we say on our way back to school,

Josh:most likely,now let's go ,

Philip:this is cool we get to see kelvins ghost house today.

I'm a few minutes the reach the creepy house of horror,

And immediately the mood changes and the air seems to feel thicker ,

Josh :welcome to the creepy house of horror,

Kelvin:wow it looks older up close and spooky to ,

Josh :legend has it,that little jack and his family once lived here ,and up till now no one knows what happened to them,it is also believed that on the 7th of August you can hear the laughter of little jack echo across the street,

Jasmine:but why is it fenced?

Josh:it it is rumored that kids kept despairing once they entered the abandoned house,so they had to close it down,

"Oh I see I guess that makes sense but do you think it's true?"jasmine asks ,

Well kids have been disappearing but blaming it on the poor old house I think it's just an exaggeration.

Jasmine:I think so to I mean how can a house be responsible for so many disappearances ,

Kelvin:maybe there're ghosts in the house ,

Philip:here we go again with the ghost stories,kelvin ghosts do not exist,

Kelvin,then how do you explain the kids disappearing?

Philip:I don't know but for sure it ain't ghosts,

Alright guys enough about ghosts ,let's go home it's getting late ,
