Eleven: School and Threats Part 1

Dustin

This last week has been a huge learning curve. This was the week that Bree and Araya started school. When my alarm went off at six in the morning on Monday, I thought it was broken. I felt Mykayla get out of bed and heard the door shut. I was almost back to sleep when I heard a scream that made me sit straight up. I quickly grabbed a pair of sweats and ran out of the room. I swung the door to Bree’s room open to protect her from what or whoever was in there, only to find both girls standing in front of the full-length mirror squealing in excitement at their school uniforms. Mykayla just looks at me and raises one of her eyebrows. I scrub my hands over my face and leave the room. I walked into our walk-in closet and picked out a suit to wear that day at work. I head towards the bathroom for a shower. As I walked by the bed, I noticed the clock and realized that it was only 6:30 am. What the fuck. It’s too damn early to be up. Mykayla and I don’t have to be at the office till nine. Normally we don't even get up till seven. I flop face-first onto the bed. I hear a laugh behind me. I can’t believe she is laughing at me.

“You’re a tad dramatic about the first day of school for the girls. What the hell is with you barging into the room like that.” She asks, laughing.

I heard them scream and thought someone was hurting them.” I mumbled, even if I was still face down on the bed.

She just walks by me, laughing, grabs her clothes, and shuts the door to the bathroom. I hear the shower start, and an idea starts in my head, but I decide against it. My idea would definitely make us late for work. Maybe next time I decide. She comes out of the bathroom, and I haven’t moved.
