Lia sat in the backseat of her mom's sedan watching the rain drizzle down the windscreen, lost in her world. It's been four hours since they left for Little Town and she was already restless.
Though she was a bit claustrophobic, she could tell that wasn't the whole reason, for some strange reasons she felt restless, as if something big was coming her way.
"Let's just hope it's something good " She mumbled beneath her breath, resting her head against the windscreen, her eyes languidly resting on her siblings
Her brother Rex was busy playing video games on his iPhone. For a nine-year-old, he was extremely fast and nimble with his fingers and she had to admit, he's really talented in gaming.
She turned to face Trevor who was sitting beside her in the backseat and was busy chatting with some girl he met on Facebook. She sighed once more looking out, the rain was seriously not helping her mood.
"Does it always rain here? " Lia asked her mom who gave her a momentarily side glance before gluing her eyes back on the road. 𝗳𝓇ee𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃o𝚟𝘦𝚕 - 🅽🅽novel
"Don't know, I'm as clueless as you. Guess we have to live there to find out "
Great! Lia groaned mentally, it was obvious her mom didn't know a clue about her husband.
They just met, fell in love, F*cked and then he left when she gave birth to her, and then the whole routine kept repeating until Rex came along. Maybe if he didn't die, another would've come along
The only reason Lia agreed to come over to Little Town was because of the school. Back in her old school, she was so bullied that one time she skipped school for a whole week until her mom caught wind of everything.
But it just got worse after that, the kids weren't merciful at all. They just hated her because she was just beautiful. So much proving the point that pretty "Hurts "
Lia has brown hair she inherited from her mom that cascades down her shoulder in waves, and her eyes a rapturous shade of cerulean blue which she inherited from her dad along with her tall height. Her height deceives people so much that sometimes they mistake her for a twenty-year-old when in reality she's actually seventeen.
Rex has the same eyes as her but with blonde hair, he took from his father's side but the little guy was insanely handsome, he was surely going to be a chick magnet in the future.
While Trevor was the exact copy of her mother, with the same hazel colored eyes and brown wavy hair.
Suddenly something caught her attention, She saw a signpost with the words "Welcome to Little Town " written in bold Italics. Lia let out a sigh she didn't know she was holding in, they're here at last.
As if the weather knew her mood, the rain stopped abruptly. At Least that's a good sign.
"What's that? " Rex's tiny childish voice resonated, drawing her attention as she turned to sight what Rex was pointing at.
It was a worn-out bungalow that was sitting in the wood that one could miss out if not looked at properly. But what was more eye-catching to the house was its appearance, the house was so eerie looking that it would be a perfect place to shoot a horror movie.
" Probably an old house on the verge of collapse " Trevor whose attention was attracted by the scene also answered nonchalantly
"We could go check it out, " Rex said, a mischievous glint in his eyes
"You ain't checking anything out, young man... !" Their Mom had yet to finish her statement when she suddenly swerved to the left while they screamed.
Thankfully their mom wasn't speeding so she successfully took control of her brakes while the kids suffered from a minor whiplash.
"Are you guys OK? " She asked concerned as she parked the car to the side to check on her kid's injuries.
"Aside from the fact I have a throbbing headache and a backache, I'm good " Lia moaned, rubbing her temple
" What was that? " Trevor whined, rubbing his neck while my mom checked on Rex who looked fine.
Curiously Lia's eyes went to the road as she tried to figure out what came out of the woods that her mom had to dodge, risking their lives in the process.
As if the figure knew what she was thinking, just before it disappeared into the wood it turned around and Lia gasped. It wasn't a human but an animal.
Suddenly, their eyes met and she felt her blood run cold. What the f*ck
"Is that a wolf?!" Lia blurted out
