Packing up.
I was 4 when my mother passed away, she was giving birth to my younger sister, Emily. My mom died from blood loss, the moment I knew she passed I felt like something else happened before she died, but what can I do, it's to late.
It's been 14 yrs and some things have changed, Emily is now 14, in varsity choir, and loves to play sports, her smile reminds me of my mom, sometimes even her laugh. I sometimes see my mom's eyes, in hers.
Im 18 now and I have been planning on moving into my own house, but it's located in oregan. I promised Emily that I would take her with me, so I am not the only one packing at this moment.
" Hey Ugly, are you ready??" I let out a sigh then look up towards her with a small smirk, "Me ugly? Please, look in a mirror". We both shared a small laugh, I grabbed a couple boxes and started placing them in my car, same with Emily's. We double checked our, now empty rooms, with childhood memories, and scarred walls.
I get into my vehicle along with my younger sister and start my car, yellow 2004 dodge neon, and begin our journey. My sister placed on one of our favorite discs which was Pierce the veil. The day shining, fresh and cloudy, something comfortable, something telling us it was a day to remember, a day with no regrets.
I was going to meet my girlfriend, Alex, at our new home, yes I know that was random, but she was also moving in with us. The reasons why I am bringing my younger sister along, is because she's to young to love alone. My dad's working across the state, So he doesn't really have much time, it's okay though, I have my girlfriend and my little sister, also in the future I know that we are going to own multiple pets, life will shine bright.
*later in the day*
My sister and I were miles away and i knew that we would have to stop sooner or later, we were hungry and bored, and it was close to noon, So we just stopped by McDonald's and got two plain and dry cheese burgers, combos. We were back on the road about 6 hours away, and were we're now getting extremely exhausted, but I didn't want to stop, my sister than fell asleep by my side and I knew we had to get enough rest for tomorrow, then the next day, I know it takes a couple days, so it was going to be a long trip. But I don't mind it at all.
It has been a long time since my sister and I rented a room inside a hotel, we usually would rent one just for the pool. I remember this hotel named La Copa Inn, it had a deep pool, 9 ft, as I remember. I just love the water, I love swimming under and hearing unique sounds, the feeling of flying and enjoying how the water would mold and hug my body, making me feel complete, and apart of the water, the way my hair flows, the way my body just moves patiently, and comfortably, until I need to breathe for air, the way it feels to push off the ground.
I broke out of thought and I focused back into the road. I looked around and noticed a couple of motels. So I knew that it was time for rest, I park to the motel 6, hoping there wasn't any suspicious, scary movie, vibe.
I parked my car and left Emily to rest for a couple minutes I'm in my car, and I walk towards the lobby.
As I walk in, the bell from the door's entrance sings, and I quickly, but quietly walk in. There was a lady, in about her mid 30s chewing gum and painting her nails. I walked up to her and coughed, but apparently I am invisible to her botox face. I dinged the bell a couple times, causing the women to stare at me with disrespect. I smile and ask for a room. She gave me the key, and I happily have her the money, then walked off.
I drove to the room we were assigned in, I woke my sister up and we both began, to grab our chargers,sleepwear, and extra blankets, and we began our sleep.
*in the morning *
I wake up to the sound of someone knocking at the door, before getting up from my good slumber I stretched and caught my sight at my younger sister, she was sound asleep, the thing about her sleeping is, she over sleeps mostly until 2/4 pm . I chuckled from the position she took to sleep, it reminded me of the princess Ana from frozen.
I stood up and walked to the door, after looking through the peek hole, it was house keeping, the women had wacky,curly, blonde hair and she was wearing the normal maid wear, she looked like she was in her early 30, with a baby, I didn't mean for that to be rude, she just looked really exhausted."we're fine, we don't need any service" , the lady ignored my comment and kept knocking on the door, she looked completely numb, broken, her eyes had a misty texture.
I let out a sigh and knew something was going to happen, I walk towards my sister and wake her up by throwing a pillow straight to her face. Emily let out a loud groan, before covering herself with the sheets, and shuffling to the center of the bed, forming herself into a circle. The knocking from the strange women began to increase in sound, and rhythm. I began to get upset at the fact she's only banging on the room's door, we are staying at.
I walked towards the door, but with each step I took, she would bang with it, the rhythm of her banging the door increased, and I was scared of what will happen if I opened it. I stood a couple of meters from the door, the banging now at a fast rate. I look towards my sister, but she was sound asleep, I was fearing for the worse, I try to look through the peek hole from the distance I was in. I mean anything can happen, hasn't anyone seen the whole,"looking through the hole, and the victims eye ball gets shot? The problem with it, was I couldnt see anything, but the banging was getting louder and louder, I had to close in, I know what I said made somewhat sense, but I had to know what that women is doing. As I look through the peek hole, she wasn't there, and the banging stopped.
"What...the..hell", the only words that I somewhat managed to say. I turned around, and noticed something standing in the dark side of the room, near my sister, my heart was pounding, my body stiff and fear just rising up as if there's no tomorrow. The figure began to crawl towards me, my body to shocked to move, each step the thing took, and a snapping, or cracking, sound, the figure had no hair, it's skin was muddy,and decaying, it had a white,but stained, shirt. A whizzing sound was made, as close as it got, the faster the whizzing would be. It's face was dark, eyes...its eyes didn't exist, and it's mouth covered with a mask.
With shock and fear running through my body I couldn't move, I felt my body drop, but from being paralyzed, I felt my insides began to get quizzy, but in that moment I remembered about Emily, I look towards her bed, and try to yell, I couldn't speak, my voice had somewhat just have out on me, I began to panic. My body was paralyzed and somehow my sister didn't wake up from her sleep. I looked at the being, and it was inches away from my face, "Hotel, p-palm..s-sky.." I trembled I'm my place, the thing spoke, what's hotel palmsky..I began to cry, from fear. The thing grabbed my head, and I felt my soul leaving my body, without any thought, I screamed as loud as possible, thinking no one could hear me, since everything around me felt like noise was being made.
"AMBER!" I broke out of thought and looked around, to be caught in the eyes of my sister, I tremble and look around my surroundings, I was on the floor, the same place, before that thing was infront of me, "dude, are you okay?"
I stared blankly at my sister and tried to calm down, I nodded my head vigorously, quickly standing up. "Get your stuff, let's go", Emily gave me a confused look, but knew that questioning would just make a problem, so she shrugged and began to gather her things.
*time skip*
We were on the road, still a couple hours away, I couldn't get the whole situation out of my head, I kept replaying images of the figure, from the motel, in my head, it felt like a dream. I got snapped out of thought, with the voice of Emily, obviously dissapointed about up coming traffic.
I let out a sigh and noticed we were miles away from the next gas station, and I just wanted to get to our new home as soon as possible.
I looked outside the window, and I remembered about my girlfriend's journey, I pulled out my phone, and tried texting her.
*chat*
Me: hey babe
Alex: hey baby
Me: how's your journey
Alex: well I am about an hour away
Me: lucky, I really miss you..
Alex:I miss you too
Me: I love you babe, I'll text you soon, traffics moving..
Alex: I love you more
Me: I love you most
*end chat*
I placed my phone down, and began to slowly move my vehicle along with the other vehicles, until we got to a complete halt. My eyes began to drift and I looked around till my eyes landed on a kid, inside a red Nissan, he was focused in my back seat, I tried getting his attention by waving, but he just kept laughing and giggling towards the back. I turn my head, but don't see anyone or thing, "What the hell.." I look at my sister and show her what was happening, we look towards the not together and I was completely shocked at what she said. "What little boy?"..
A/n: hey guys it's me..well this is my new book, I am sorry for late updates..and for complete wait...but i hope this makes it all up..thanks guys I love you...bye
