The second floor

Author: Justine Cerny

Me and my parents moved in a new house. It was old and dusty. We cleaned it up.
One night i heared dog footsteps. But they were so loud…it felt like there was a dog upastairs. When the footsteps stop, i fall assleep. After two days my mom and dad went shopping, so i stayed home alone. Later at 8p.m. I heard the dog footsteps again. So i went upstairs but the door was closed. I grabbed an axe and broke the door. “Ew” i said. “This room smells terrible” i said. It was so dark in here and so dirty. I saw there a chest. When i opened it….i didn’t have any words. In this box i saw dog’s legs. I wanted to run anc call the police, but the door was closed. 2 seconds later someone in deep vaice said “ please…don’t leave me.” It was tall skinny man with long beard and he was tied up with chains. I got so scared i screamed. He said “please don’t scream…i am here two years. I eat only rats and mouses and i drink only rain water.” I said “ then what’s whit the dog legs?” He said “they killed my dog….” i said “who are they?” He said “your parents”
“Honey, we are home!” It was my mom. She did this to this poor man.
