Chapter 3.

The conversation went on.

‘ it's just too much ’, one of the woman said to the other.

Hope became optimistic and thought to himself.

‘ what are they talking about ’, he said to himself in a soft tone.

As the cart stopped by a house, Hope steps down from the cart and walked up to the door.

As he knocks on door, Gwen opens it and hugged him.

‘ welcome back bro ’, she said to Hope.

‘ where are the others ’, he said to Gwen.

‘ they went out not too long ’, Gwen replied him with a smile on her face.

Hope walks in and locks the door behind him.

The following morning, Hope got up early, he was wearing a snow coat and snow boots, he was about walking out when his mother stood against him and the door .

‘ hello, it have been long since we have ever had a short conversation like this my boy ’, his mother said to him with a smile on her face.

Hope turns his back to see his mother smiling at him, he runs up to her and braces her before she moves back and said to him.

‘ I want you to take good care of yourself and your siblings because they are the only thing you and I have after your father's unfortunate death ’.

‘ but I have to go out and hustle for us to survive, because..... ’, Hope replied her before he was interupted by his mom.

‘ hey, that's enough, what I mean is that you should take care of not only yourself but your siblings as well, just take good care of yourself ok, and get me that tea you always promised ’ his mother replied Hope.

‘ ok mother, I will get you that British tea alright ’, Hope replied his mother before walking out on her and slowly waving his hands at her.

Hope was busy carry coal to and fro to different locations and it was already becoming late, he ran through road not knowing his boss was calling for him inside of the shop.

‘ Hope, Hope where are you ’, his boss yelled out loud to their hearing.

As he looks at his window, he sights Hope running through the dark roads.

As Hope was about reaching his house, he had a weird feeling that something was about to happen but he was too scared to even focus.

As he got to his house, he saw the door broken down and thrown against the ground, he slowly walks forward and what he saw will make you wish you were not in his position.

>>>>.

‘ what happened here, mom, Gwen, Stefani, where are you guys, hello ’, Hope said to the dark void enveloping the room.

As he was about stepping in, he saw blood strainings around the room, he mistakenly rest by the wall and not knowing that he hit the switch, as the light turns on, he saw dead bodies of his siblings and his mother.

Tears dripping down his cheek, Hope stood still for a while still trying to process what he saw, the dead bodies of his siblings, all of them lying on their own blood, it was like a nightmare, he moves back and staggers backwards where he heard a sniffing sound.

He looks back and saw Gwen lying down on their younger brother, she was bruised up and was at the point of dying.

Hope rushed down to her and tries helping her up, as he rose her up, Gwen slowly opens his eyes and said to him.

‘ Hope, please run, don't stay here you will die just go please I love you, we love you ’, in a weak tone accompanied with a sadistic look on her face.

Hope had no choice but to carry his dying sister and search for help, as he checked the other bodies for survival, he lost hope when he discovered that his sister is the only survival of the massacre.

He rose up his sister and slowly walks out of the house, as he was out in the forest, Gwen blood drips on Hope as he was staggering further to save his own sister from death.

Unknown to him that Gwen was slowly transforming into a beast.

‘ brother, am hungry, please let's stop to eat ’, Gwen said to Hope.

As Hope heard, he stopped and began to try helping her to a small restaurant near by, as they opened the door, the people in the restaurant became quiet and began to look at them like they were criminals.

‘ please I need some biscuits and a hot tea ’, Hope said to the waitress in a soft tone while observing his sister as she slowly moves her head to and fro.

>>>>.

‘ here you go, and anything for you ’, the waitress said to him but he nods his head at her and she slowly walks out on him.

As Gwen was eating very fast, Hope was surprised to see that she had already finished the food.

‘ brother, I need more please tell them to add more meat ’, Gwen said to Hope.

‘ ok, hey, bring more food and add more meat ’, he replied Gwen.

As the waitress came in with the food, Gwen dragged the dish out of her hands and began to devour the food, Hope slowly reaches for her plate when she yelled at him with her fang contracting from her mouth.

‘ leave me alone, hands off my food ’, Gwen said to him in a bold tone.

‘ but let me just have a little bit ’, Hope replied her and was about reaching for the plate when she drags it away from him and hissed at him.

As she began to eat, Hope discovered that she was getting bigger and stronger as well, as she was done, she drops down the plate and said to Hope.

‘ I need meat, get me meat ’, in a scary tone with her back view against him as he heard her voice for the third time, he could tell that something is wrong.
