Chapter 2 - (Chapter-2)The Kitchen Floor

I shouldn't have gone downstairs.

You would've gone too.

Don't lie.

The house was dark except for the kitchen light.

It flickered. I was scared shitless that time.. Do you think it's funny don't you.. Hehehe look behind you...

Didn't see anything?? Well whatever

So at that time I screamed for my mom

"Moooommmmmm"

No answer came...

I went towards the sound and The smell hit me first.

Metallic.

Thick.

Warm.

You know that smell. Don't you?? Ghahaha

I stepped into the kitchen.

And that's when I saw her.

My mom was standing at the counter.

Her back to me.

Her shoulders moving slightly.

Like she was chopping vegetables.

Except she wasn't using a knife.

Her hands were red.

Thick red.

And on the counter—

There was meat.

But not the kind we buy.

It had fingers.

Small fingers.

I didn't scream.

I couldn't.

Because she slowly turned around.

And her eyes…met mine.." Holy fuck" I screamed..I was gonna punch her hard but my instinct told me' not to..

Her eyes were empty.Not white,not black.

Just gone.Like someone erased them.

"Leonard," she said softly, warm & motherly

Her voice was normal but strangely I got goosebumps hearing it

"Why are you awake?"

Hearing this my body screamed me to run but I was frozen

You see?

You'd be frozen too.

I could feel it, she wasn't my mom.. Something unknown and ghastly thing has taken her body

She came at me with a crazed grin and a knife. I thought I was dead. I pinched myself, forcing my body to break its paralysis, but by the time I could move, she was already there.

But I ran so fast in that moment—it was as if something else took control of my legs. A primal instinct kicked in, and I was moving before I could even think..... That was so close..
