Abigail and the House of Five

CHAPTER 3

A NEW FRIEND

Emily held her hand and took her upstairs, Abigail couldn't help but notice how dry and rough her hands were. Emily opened the door to her room, like any other child she had filled it with toys and drawings. Abigail started inspecting the room as Emily played with her teddy bear. She tried to open a cupboard only to know it was stuck "Hey, is this cupboard locked", Abigail calmly asked Emily as she tried harder to open the cupboard "Don't open it, Laney is there, she can be a bit rude to new people" Abigail remembered how Emily told her about Laney downstairs and questioned Emily about her " Do you know how Laney knows me?" " I made that up, I just wanted you to play with us since others always think that I am crazy, I am sorry about that" Abigail felt sorry for her, she was just an innocent child who just wanted to live her childhood. Lying or not, she wanted to make Emily happy. " I don't think you are crazy, if you answer some of my questions I will play with you for sure", Abigail said in a reassuring way. Emily's eyes were filled with sparkle. She quickly agreed and they both sat down for it Abigail asked her," So how long have you and Laney been friends?" " It feels like forever", Emily replied " How did you two meet?" " Well... I actually can't remember. I just remember playing with her to be honest.." Emily only had memories of her playing with Laney who was supposedly in the cupboard. This sort of memory loss was kinda new to Abigail and her list of other cases. She knew for sure that Emily wasn't lying and she wasn't crazy. "Can you call Laney for me? I want to meet her, maybe we both can be friends", said Abigail Emily got up and knocked on the cupboard door 5 times. A few seconds later she knocked again on the door for the same number of times, 5. She stopped knocking and put her ear on the door. " She says she doesn't want to meet you and wants to rest" " Can you convince her?" Abigail couldn't help but feel that something was very wrong. "I don't think we should disturb her...." Emily sounded a little scared and doubtful. Abigail didn't wanna force her since she had no idea what was behind that door. Like she promised she played with Emily for a while. Some time had passed, Emily was pretty happy until the next moment. Her eyes widened and she dropped her toys. She looked like as she had seen a ghost. "Hey are you ok?" Abigail asked She remained silent. Suddenly, the cupboard door flew open. Emily stood up and said," Y-you should go, she is r-r-right behind you...she is angry" Just as she said that Abigail felt a chill run down her spine. She quickly collected her things. Just as she stepped outside the room the door shut behind her. She ran down the stairs but slipped and suffered a few scratches. "She can't even walk properly! I think we should find someone else", an angry Duke said while watching another episode of 'Ghostin'. Henry helped her up and they both went out the house. Abigail was sure that this was no ordinary house " I don't what it is, but I am gonna find out "

Abigail And The House Of Five

CHAPTER 2)

FAMILY OF FIVE

The next day, Abigail drove to the address Henry gave her. When she reached the house, sudden vibrations ran through her body, which told her that something wasn’t right in this house. Well, anything. This did happen to her before, but that was a time where she almost died, yet she didn’t give up on the family. “Good morning-” “Abigail Boskins, lead investigator from ‘Investigative portal’-” “I know ma’am. I know your company’s name” said Henry, chuckling. “Henry Davis. Please come inside, ma’am-” “please call me Abigail. The word “ma’am” gives me really weird vibes.” “Ok then” Henry was really surprised to see a person with such a complicated job, so spontaneous. Abigail went inside the house with Henry. When she entered the house, she saw 2 kids. One was talking to her mother, and the other was watching TV. “Mom, Emily rushed inside her room saying that “her friend was in danger” or something like that. I had no idea what she was talking about.” “Why didn’t you stop her, Clara?” “Mom, do you know how much Emi creeps me out?” “Don’t talk about your sister like that.” “Clara, can you shut up? I am trying to watch something here.” “Yeah like as if you are watching the news channel or something. Mom, Duke is really getting addicted to “ghostsin””. All this was happening and both the kids didn’t even see Abigail, not even their mother, so Abigail decided to intervene their conversation, “Isn’t Ghostsin a series about a ghost who was faithful in his living days and then when he dies, he kills everyone who ever hurt it? Yeah, I’ve watched it” “Oh hi there, I am Lucy Davis. Sorry about that, these kids don’t really let me pay attention to anything but them.” “Yeah it’s totally alright, I just came here-” “to check-up my daughter Emily?” “Well, not really, I just want to talk to her.” “oh ,ok then, please sit down, I will bring some water.” Both Clara and Duke were staring at Abigail looking clueless. When Abigail noticed it, she couldn’t help but smile. “Hi, your father called me” “are you another psychiatrist to “talk” to Emily?” asked Clara “well, I am not a psychiatrist, I am a ghost investigator.” “Wait so you believe in all the crap Emily is making up? Trust me, she makes up a lot of things.” Said Duke “Mind the way you talk, Duke. She is elder than us” “no it’s alright.” Abigail turned towards Duke and continued “Maybe is she making it up. But maybe she isn’t. I will talk to her today and if I notice that she is making it all up, I will just go home. But, there are really high chances that she isn’t making this up. Either way, let’s stay on the safe side, shall we?” Duke stayed silent after listening to Abigail. He never really believed his younger sister, but suddenly now that a ghost investigator explained it to him properly, he understood everything. “There you go, water. Emily!!! Come to the living room, fast!” “Yes mom, coming in a sec.!” said a small voice from a room. After some time, Emily came outside, with her teddy bear. Surprisingly, the first person she rushed to was Abigail, “aren’t you Laney’s friend?” “Who is Laney, Emily?” “She is my friend, I just talked to her, she said she knows you. Do you want to talk to her?” “Yeah sure, take me to your room” said Abigail, and she went with Emily inside her room, wishing her friend to be just as normal as a human. Oh…how wrong she was……

Abigail And The House Of Five

CHAPTER 1)

A NEW ACTIVITY

“Good morning, Abigail Boskin speaking, how can I help you? Uh...yes, just a minute, let me grab my notepad.” Said Abigail, rushing to her room to take a pen and her infamous notepad. “Please continue… … … ok… so how many people are there in your family, sir? 5… yeah ok then.  I will reach there and investigate as soon as possible sir, please forward your address on this number itself. Ok, sir. Bye, have a nice day.” Abigail started scribbling down notes on her notepad after she hung up the phone.

 She hadn’t even started eating her breakfast, so her husband asked her, “What happened dear?” “Uh… nothing new. You won’t be interested.” “Oh come on, u always tell me about your investigations.” “Fine. I just got a call from this man named Henry Davis who was saying that his family witnessed some unusual behavior in their youngest daughter’s room. I am just trying to figure out some possibilities of the… thing that showed that behavior. But he didn’t give me much information on what they had witnessed. He was putting on a lot of emphasis on the fact that they need help and that they aren’t safe there. So I need to go soon. I think tomorrow will do.” “All of that is cool, but at least you can eat your breakfast and then complete… scribbling.” Said her husband. “Yeah, I guess. To be honest, I am quite hungry.” She sat down at the dining table with her husband Mike and started eating her scrambled eggs. “Uh...Mike?” “Yeah Abi?” “You forgot to add salt. And pepper” “hehe. Wait I will add right now-” “no-no, it’s alright. I can eat it. Next time just be a bit careful.”  “Yeah, I will try not to forget about not leaving the eggs unsalted the next time.” Both Abigail and Michael try to finish their unsalted scrambled eggs.

After completing her breakfast, she searched the address which Henry sent her online, and tried to find information on any past similar behaviors. She found out about a site, which probably had every single information about the house, except the exact thing she was searching for,  yet, she spent the rest of the day scrolling through the internet, waiting for tomorrow to come up, so that she could save the family from its misery. Little did she know, this would be one of her most painful yet mysterious investigation, and that she wasn’t strong enough, or was she?
