As the sunlight creeped through the window.
Clara's is awoken " Another day another nightmare .As she tries to get up from the bed 'knock knock knock '
"Ah come in
" Good morning miss you called "
I did ? .The maid points to a red button on the side the bed ' oh I must have hit it by accident ' anyway where are my things? .
Young master ordered you not be disturbed I will go fetch them immediately. Excuse me Miss.
The maid exist the room while Clara goes to take a bath the warm water feels so good . Indulging in her own thoughts she remembers her friend Maria Rodriguez who recently move back here "maybe I could stay with her while I figure things out".
She wraps herself in a white robe then walks out, she see her luggage "the maid must have come i
After Clara finished getting dressed
Knock knock knock Miss breakfast is ready do come down.
"Ok this maid is either too good at her job or their a camera in this room " Clara thought
Needless to say she open the door and follows the maid to the dining hall
"Good morning How's your ankle "
'' it's healing that's for sure , walking doesn't hurt as much "
'Glad to hear that now EAT " ' I immediately fill up my plate with food .
She ate until she had her fill, after breakfast they took a look out the balcony while the maids tidy up the table. As they stood by Clara desperately thought of a way to strike up a conversation.
" So I wanted to thank you for letting me stay here but I would like to move in with one of my friend " " Male or female "
"What? " this friend ?"
Her name may and - " When will you like to leave ' He inquired
' As soon as I contact her but my phone? ' " I'll get you a new one 😒
"It's ok you've done enough", Clara hated the thought of unnecessary favors ." I'll just use the landline ".In that case I have work to do, I'll be back tomorrow morning " He left immediately so Clara was alone so she decided to take one last look around and call May afterwards. After many twist and turns she found herself at the same door , she stares utterly confused "How do I keep coming here?" She couldn't describe it but there was this certain pull as she . "There you are " Arrrrgh "😱
Clara screamed unable to contain her fright " Didn't mean to scare you "
" Wait aren't I that doctor from the hospital?" indeed I am 😏
"Hmmm strong memory " " So what brings you here ? Karl's not at home right now "
Actually that's why I'm here to keep you company 😁, so why don't we head on to the garden " Clara looked confused, she looked around only to realize that they were on the third floor.
" I must have wondered off absent minded '
They take the back exits into the garden where the flowers are in full bloom. " So tell me what's your story Jason asked "I've no story hmm well nothing of interest, a doctor who's probably read a ton of books ' . Jason made further attempts at strick a conversation but Clara shows zero interest. Hoping to get some quiet time.
"ring Ring ring" Jason excuses himself leaving Clara a chance to finally explore the garden.
The feeling of fresh air makes a smile build on her face. The garden flower are colour ordinated. Adoring the flowers she comes to s stop as she stares down at a peculiar red rose quite different from the rest . Leans in to touch but melts into a puddle of green fluid.
Curiously she keeps her fingers, it's cold , thick and ( she brings it up to her lips ) taste like vinegar . Sudden images of the monster in her dream appear.
Filled with dread , she runs back into her room and locks it.
After ending the call Jason looks but Clara was not in sight. Using his vision ,he scans the place, he see her in the room , with long stride he reach in seconds " Clara i know you're in there every thing okay ? " Jason wait patience for her reply .
"The sun too hot for my skin so I came to cool off ."creaks open the door. "Could I borrow your phone I need to make a call . " Ok"
Taking the phone she walks over to her suitcase where she opens her phone book and dials Mary number
CALL CONVERSATION
Mary : Hello, Maria Rodriguez speaking
Clara: May it's Clara
Mary : Clara ? Oh thank God I was so worried my calls weren't going through. What happened?
Clara : I'm fine see I was wondering if I could crash at yours for some time
Mary: Are u kidding 🤨
Clara : it'll only be for
Mary : Cut the crap you can stay for as long as you want .
Clara: Thanks I think I'm going crazy
Mary : Say no more girlfriend, what time you getting here ?
Clara : The morrow
Mary : kk See you later belle ciao
Call ends
Clara returns Jason phone " sorry it took so long " no problem I'm shift starting soon so I'm off
He starts walking away but turns back when she doesn't follow ' Aren't you going to see me off ? "
Why ? No one saw you in so why so I have to see you out "
Jason seemed really surprised to hear her speak back to aggressively but smirk and left without another word.
The truth was Clara was scared of what else she might find in the mansion and opted to stay in her room. Crocheting and later had dinner alone .
