Uncle Jack and Auntie Jasmine lived far away in an island name Alaska they sometimes visit my family in October. When they came almost every October I saw realized that they brought a cute little puppy I played with it during the days and as time flies by I didn't have anytime more to play with him. When I was in bed lying down I saw a little shadow behind my door as soon as I was going to check it out with a lot of fair in my heart I opened the door and soon recognize the puppy he was eating the family pet rat that was missing I thought " So Gross " . I figured out this was unusal because cat alone eats rats then soon I started sleeping on the couch his eyes will glow with red light Everytime the clock strikes 6 : 00 pm he scared me and during I didn't play with him . Soon the end of October came pretty quick the family left with their puppy and I was overjoyed I was sitting in the sofa when I saw a price of paper with writing that said " I will soon be back next October or sooner don't worry " . I screamed and said with all my might " That Glowing Eye Thing" . Soon after couple day It was weird when I was around the food table mom and dad will stare at me with sorry eyes and also Ali my elder sister I knew they all loved but it was just weird I finished my food and washed my hands and ran into my room and banged the door as soon I was heading out for some water from the kitchen pipe I bumped into my mom that was about to knock and then I ruined it she grounded me and I spilled water all over shirt and drop the cup on the floor my dad started at me angrily and said " Young Lady" . I slammed my door and then when I sat down I saw a price of paper wrote the same thing from before after I felt sorry for mom I apologise she accepted but I was grounded for two month no eating junk food and no appliances I was bored all the time I actually adopted felling like a prisoner in my own house I kept on get those piece of price of paper it stopped when I was off grounded then October came walking at my house with Miss Jasmine mom asked Miss Jasmine " Where's Jack and that puppy " in a funny tone . Miss Jasmine sat us down and said my puppy has been feeding off human blood and rat well he died one day ago and then back died after my mom and aunt started to cry I felt sorry for them soon I left the sobbing people for a use in the bathroom soon I saw that a tube was in my waste I was screaming and then ran came aunt Jasmine and mom the realized and I was sent to the nearest hospital I knew I reached there without a quint of the wind eye the doctor revealed the shocking and animal was feeding off you blood his saliva is still into you that why when you touch it going to hurting .Few year later I still remembered what that cat did to me I actually forgave him actually he was a vampire from the Los Altos hills the people taking care of them is wondering how he get out of his cage and they didn't realize I seem like that dog sucked Uncle Jack blood too .My Poor uncle gone too soon R.I.P . So soon as possible I started searching for online jobs I found one at it about nursing pet I say I'll give it a try since I want some spear change in my hands and the pay was 200 dollars us although I lived it a different island .. Soon after taking care of pet I kind of liked one of them but resembled too much of my enemy he was going good until I bought him home to my husband Johnson and my three kids I watched him very carefully and let him sleep outside in his let house when one day I woke Miss Tory Jane told me " Your mom is ill give a call or maybe a visit". She was my mom freinds from long ago she started a different life in my island and adopted my people style it kinda crazy she knew it from head to toe . I gave my mom a call but she didn't pick up I call several times and she didn't pick up and then I tried to call my one and only aunt Jasmine she said to me with year in her eyes " She's dead " .

And hung up I almost fainted I reached over to my mom's house to see she lying in a coffin the best morning funeral camed and I cried a lot and so did dad and Ali we made our confession Ali made her but it was this she said " I don't know what to say about her ". In an evil tone and smirked and waked away the crowd took action they blamed Ali and then investigate and Ali was the victim her mother died she poisned mom to keep her boyfriend name Chad I said " How dare that you do that to my mom not yours". With my words the crowd look puzzled by what I said they wanted to know the truth and Ali wanted to know too so I said " I was only child mom and dad wanted because dad cheated on mom with Christine our neighbor thats why Christine loved you so much and want you stay all the time at her house they disclose it to me because I was there real daughter and not you they wanted a devorce and they made it up and then they choose what was best for us not even you me ". I felt horrible after saying that . She was charged 10 years of imprisonment and I was wondering what I whould be like to stay there so I arranged somethings with the law and I was finally ready to served 4 year for her and let she take 6 she deserved it I missed my children badly and then I hired a maid at my home to assist my children 4 years straight when my 4 year were up Ali was serving her 2 years since I was still young I was just 25 I started a job career not to go home to realize my husband dating my maid with candle lights , dinner , ring on both of their fingers he was humiliated when he saw me and said to the maid " Our 4 year marriage has ended ". He hugged me and I cried and I saw my kids running toward the kitchen calling " Mom Mom Mom". I replied saying " Yes babies ".

The older one commented saying " You're not our mom no more I'm fifteen and my second brother is 13 and the youngest is 10 ". The youngest hugged me with tears and everybody hugged and then cried for a little while and stop I cook the best dinner that somebody could ever cook and it was our family favorite food ".

Soon I got a call from the saying " COME IMMEDIATELY". I rushed down there seeing my sister wrap into black bag I kissed her and said " I'm sorry" . Soon I saw my pet came and stretch his hand out for an hugg
