Home can be anywhere

Sandra's pov

As soon as Xanvier left the house, I ran a bath. Nothing better than running cold water on a sex starved body - it calms the raging nerves.

I stepped out, got dressed and ate some canned beef. The time on the small click on table reads 9am

Pfff!! How time flies.

I phoned the truck that was supposed to bring our properties over and they assured me that they will be here shortly, so I decided to take the time to look around the new house..

I started with the bedroom -a huge room with a strange door with glass view.  Out  of curiosity, I opened the door and it led to a dark room. I switched on my flashlight and entered the room, a to the side of the room is a stair case.

"Maybe, it leads to the Attic". I thought.

Sudden rush of adrenaline wrapped me as I took the first step. I wanted to get out of the room bit something kept urging me to keep going.

I took the second step, a loud shriek from no where startled me and I soon found myself racing out of the room with the door left ajar.

Next thing, I woke up on the mattress and everything looked the same, the door was even closed. As though nothing happened.

"Was that a night mare?". I pondered.

"When did I even sleep and how long have I been asleep?"  I stood up and stared at the door, but didn't notice anything.

Strangely, the time was the same.

I heard the sound of the bell, so  I didn't have time to process what happened, I b practically barrelled downstairs to open the door.

"Welcome". I said to the tall, fair guy standing few inches away from my face.

"We are sorry to have kept you waiting, Mrs  Xanvier. The man apologized. Please, do sign here".

I took the proof of delivery and signed on it. And I ushered in the staffs to assist me to make the house beautiful. 

When we got into the bedroom, I was scared to look at the strange door.

Heck!

The thought of the door was giving me goosebumps, so I had to act like it didn't exist.

We carried the stuff to their places and brought life to the house

After seeing them off, I took my time to study the exterior part of the house - big, gigantic, alone in the middle of nowhere, thick forest around it and a large pool of water behind it - A typical  haunted house in movies. I literally got the creeps while checking it out.

This has always been Xanvier's dream house - a gothic mansion with a pool and away from people. 

He doesn't believe in ghosts and neither do I .But there's got to be an explanation to the evil aura I am getting.

He's never been the type that attracts attention. I silently prayed that's the house be nothing like the haunted house in movies.

I ran inside to get my purse and car key after concluding that I can't stay in the house alone.
