9 YOU ARE TOO LATE TO ESCAPE

when I entered in the room, everyone was looking in one direction, when I looked there, I was shocked to see that.

On the mirror, something was written with maybe red lipstick on the mirror of Jess's room, when I came closer I can read that, it was saying

"RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN

BUT YOU CAN'T ESCAPE"

I worriedly looked at Jess who was just on his peak of crying as he saw me looking towards him. he immediately fall into tears. He was crying like a baby while sitting on floor.

"I WANNA GO HOME AHHHH WHERE YOU GUYS HAVE BROUGHT ME PLEASE DO SOMETHING, MOOOOOMM, DAAAAAAD, JESSSSSY"'

"Hey c'mon, buddy grow up, you are now 21 and looked at you stop behaving like a spoiled child already" said Mia.

"You don't know how to comfort someone at all, Lia what are we supposed to do now" he said while crying.

I replied" Guys I think we should leave from here, I don't think that this place is safe for us."

Joe was agreed with me.

But Mia and Adam were not ready to go, so we started persuading them.

After a while, we somehow managed to take them with us.

All of us packed our luggage and put it in the car.

After that, we all came and sat in the car, Adam started the car and started driving.

After about one minute, when we were still in that creepy forest, our car suddenly stopped.

"What the hell is wrong with this freaking car now"?? Adam said while getting off from the car, and so did the Joe.

"Maybe she don't want us to go anywhere" Mia said while smiling and looking towards Jess who was already scared.

"Stop it, Mia" I scold her while looking towards Jess.

Mia get off from the car, while I just sat there with Jess so that he don't scared.

"Lia I don't want to die that soon, I want to gave my mother a happy life, I want her to know that her child is capable of doing anything, Lia. I want to spend some time with my brother who always asked me to spend time with him but I can't due to studying and gaming. I want to lay down on my grandmother's lap, want her to know how much I love her. I want everyone in my life to know that I love them, I love them the most."

I was shocked to hear those words from his mouth, from a mouth who always opened to speak some useless or for some funny talks only. I never ever saw him that much serious in my life.

Bro you okay? why are you suddenly saying things like that?

"Lia I'm scared, I don't know if we can survive or not" he said while sadly smiling.

I was about to say something when interrupted by Adam.

"The car broke down".

We got off from the car, and started thinking of what to do next.

After a while, we decided to return the home. We had our lunch, and began pondering what to do next.

We were all sitting in the room downstairs while chitchatting.

Suddenly the front door knocked, the sound was initially disregarded, but eventually got too loud.

So Joe stood up and went towards the front door while we were just staring at him.

As he opened the door, there was an elderly woman, who was extremely old. she appeared very frail.

Joe took her inside, we gave her something to eat, she showed us a lot of gratitude. Before she left, she gave us a present, it was packed in a box.

So we don't opened it in here presence, when she left Jess opened the box. Inside the box, there was a creepy and horrible doll, and a car, maybe the doll's car.

Jess took the doll and began examining it.

"Bro this doll is too horrible, so this doll lack any sort of facial expression, it's eyes are hollow and a non existing smile.

I grabbed the doll from him, the doll's eyes met mine as I snatched the doll away from him. The doll had long and golden hairs, her eye were green. she wore a black dress and had blue flowers in her hand. She had black lips.

She kept her eyes fixed on me.

She had to, of course, gaze into my eyes.
