DON’T
LET ‘EM IN
I
knock on the door and someone open the door. An old woman who is beautiful and
looks friendly while holding a male doll. She uses pajamas with very beautiful
shabby chic motifs. The doll also uses pajamas with striped motifs, if viewed from
a distance maybe I would think it was a little boy.
“hi, anything I can help?” She smiled very friendly to
me.
“ emm hi, Im Maggie. Sorry I knocked on your door at
this hour.”
“ I went in and walked down the tall grass then I got
here, sorry for disturbing you.”
“ Im Marisa and this is my son Jack. We rarely have
guests, especially guests who come through the tall grass, you are destined to
get here”
wait what? What did she say? her son? So it's a little
scary after I hear it.
“please come in and take a rest, you can come back
when the sun rises” invite the woman with a smile.
I entered the magnificent
mansion, very luxurious with an elegant design, I passed the place that might
be the lobby, there hung a very beautiful crystal chandelier, and there was a
photograph that was printed very large in the photo there was Marisa and then a
man who might be her husband and a little boy who looks a lot like Jack the
doll. I feel very curious about this family and the mansion. This mansion seems
to have a lot of secrets, and this mansion is surrounded by the tall grass,
maybe this is the reason why many people are lost including my brother. Tall
Grass is hiding this mansion, is it possible for this family to be responsible
for what happened to my brother? but why did I get here? why am I not lost like
the others? I kept thinking until I found myself in front of a door.
“ please come in and rest in this room” said marisa
with a smile then left me.
This room is very
spacious with a king size mattress that is very soft and comfortable, inside
there is also a bathroom with a bath tub. I was very fascinated with this
mansion, but I was also very curious and a little afraid, why marisa was so
kind to me when this was the first time we met and was she not afraid if I was
actually a bad person? I do not know I decided to close my eyes because I was
very tired after walk around through the tall grass.
I didn't sleep well I
felt someone was watching me. The atmosphere was a bit tense. I saw the shadow
of a man on the edge of the bed and looked at me, I didn't know it was only my
dream or it was real.
Knock... knock...
I
woke up when someone knocked on my door. I opened the door and saw a
middle-aged woman, she asked me to immediately go to the dining room to have
breakfast together. I cleaned myself and rushed to the dining room.
“ good morning” I say hello to everyone who is there
“
good morning Maggie, this is my husband, Tony” say Marisa
“
hi Tony Im Maggie nice to meet you”
“
nice to meet you to, please take a sit down, my wife has told me everything”
I also
saw Jack the doll sitting between you with a bowl of cereal and a glass of milk
in front of him. then came a few maids poured drinks into my glass and served
food. all the maids don't talk much and are even reluctant to look me in the
eye this is getting suspicious actually what's wrong with this mansion and why
is the doll jack treated like humans.
after
breakfast I go back to my room to tidy up my things, the plan is I want to go
home I don't want to linger here anymore especially after the incident seeing
the shadow. when I get ready someone knocked on my door, it turns out it was
Marisa.
“ are you ready to go home?” she asked
“ yes I have to go home, I don't want to make my
family worry.”
“I was going to ask for your help, but it looks like
you want to go home soon”
After
hearing that I felt uneasy, he was kind enough to give me a place to rest and
also food, then I asked what I could help. Apparently she had to go with her husband
because there was an urgent matter and I was asked to look after Jack the doll
while they were gone, because I felt indebted I also wanted to help her.
He
took me to Jack's room, and he explained what I had to do while looking after
Jack. first at 10 o'clock is Jack's time to eat fruit I have to bring Jack to
the dining room and provide fruit for him, then after eating fruit Jack plays
the piano for an hour, then Jack has lunch, then Jack has to take a nap, then
take Jack to walk afternoon walk around the mansion's yard, then Jack showered
and prepared for dinner, after that Jack had to wash up and change clothes in
pajamas, before going to bed Jack had to read a fairytale before going to
sleep. must not say rude in front of Jack and may not be rude to Jack. it's a
list of Jack's activities and the rules Marisa gave me. Marisa and her husband
might come back tomorrow morning, so I called my mother and said that I would
stay at my best friend Cassie's house.
I
carried Jack and drove Marisa and Tony to the door. Marisa and Tony say goodbye
to Jack and tell Jack not to be naughty. I feel so crazy about all this why
they treat Jack like a human and where is the boy in the photo. they both left
and now I live with Jack and some maids at home.
I
brought Jack to the dining room and prepared fruit for him, assisted by a few
maids, but they never spoke a single word to me. It seemed like they were
hiding something. actually very strange I have to feed the dolls but this is an
order from Marisa. I put a piece of fruit in front of Jck, after a few moments
when I brought Jack to the piano room, I played a few songs with Jack sitting
beside me. as long as I'm with Jack I feel someone is watching me. I even heard
voices from behind the wall but I tried not to care. after playing the piano I
took Jack to his room and laid him on the bed to take a nap. I came out of
Jack's room, I decided to walk around the mansion to the backyard. until the
back page I saw something that made me very surprised.
