~ Vincent ~
Strange.
Everybody was behaving so strange lately.
And as much as I hated to say. It bothered me a lot. I was not like this before.
But.
Ever since she came into my life, I started to change, I started to behave less rudely, and I started to care for people. I started to fall in...
Never mind.
And on top of it, my parents weren't home just like before.
Maybe I was just overthinking everything.
Maybe they were just behaving normally.
Maybe I was the one with the problem here.
Maybe-
I shook my head and left a huge sigh, "Maybe I should just attend my today's session with Mrs. Lilly."
I needed it. I really did.
Within a drive of an hour and a half, I pulled up at Emily's home.
Walking through her garden, I felt like, coming here was a bad idea, I felt like I should've just stayed at my home and suffered in silence.
No. My efforts from the last few months can't go to waste.
Face it, Vincent.
Taking a deep breath, I rang the doorbell.
Nobody answered the door for a whole minute.
Was I the last person left on Earth?
Well, that assumption was proved wrong when somebody opened the door, but when I saw who it was, my jaw dropped.
"Derek?"
He grinned, "Yep. Are you coming in or what?"
I nodded and walked in.
I don't know why, but I was feeling a little... jealous?
What was he doing here?
"What are you doing here?"
I then realised that I really voiced my question.
He shrugged, "Just paying my friend a visit?"
Was he seriously asking me that?
"E-Emily?"
He shook his head and laughed, "Nops, the other sibling."
"Oh." Well, that was a relief.
He poked my side, "Vi, you're adorable when you are jealous."
"I wasn't jealous!"
"Yeah, and I'm blind."
I rolled my eyes and left him behind, "Whatever." It was unusually quiet out here, "Uh where's everybody?"
"Derek?"
I turned around and he was not there.
"Derek, it's not funny."
Oh God, this guy.
I brushed it off, and when I was going to reach Mrs. Lilly's home office, I heard some strange sound in the room opposite to hers.
"Uh, somebody there?"
Well, as expected, there was no reply.
Was I stuck in some creepy nightmare?
Strangely enough, I found my feet dragging me to that room, and before I could stop it, I knocked on the door.
