A Week-end with Sebastian

A Week-end with Sebastian (Inspired by story “A Skeleton In the Cupboard”)

"George, please move out of the Sebastian skeleton from the cupboard .. I'm very uncomfortable if sebastian skeleton laid there, "I asked him.

"Unfortunately, nowhere to put it," George refused.

Oh my God! I can’t think George has a terrible secret like this. Even, it is worse than terrible. I tried to calm myself,  I inhale slowly and exhale slowly. But the window suddenly opened itself accompanied by strong winds.

"Haaaaaah!" I was shocked and immediately jumped into the blanket. I was useless to try to calm down. Looks like Sebastian did not let me to calm down. I'm excited.

Then , there's trying to pull my blanket. “Whoaaaaa! "  I was screaming in horror.

"Open the covers!  It's me, George! "

"You sure?"  I opened the blanket.

"What are you doing exactly? Let's just say he's not there, then something weird is not going to happen. I'm going to the house of Thomson briefly, I will not be long. You don’t go anywhere."

"But I was really scared, George!"

"If you do not bother him, he will not bother you."

"George, what happened to Sebastian? Why don’t you bury him in order to calm his soul?"

George just laughed and walked away.

"Did you kill him?"

George stopped and looked at me like want to kill me. Because I was too much to ask.

"Well , I would not ask anymore again to you." I said to George.

George did not care what I said, and left me alone, no, exactly leave me alone with Sebastian. Oh, God!

“Oh man! It’s skeleton in the cupboard! If this just a dream, it’s the worst dream ever!”

It's almost an hour but it felt like almost a year of waiting for George to come back. These books made me tired. I grabbed an old radio placed near the books. I searched the radio channel, I hope there are radio channels are connected. At least to make me forget the horror atmosphere in this room.

"YEAAAAAY! YEAAAAAY!! YEAAAAAAHHH!!!"

"Whoah?!!" I threw the radio because I was shocked. It turns out that the radio channel which playing rock songs.

"Fiuhh .. stupid!" I scolded myself. Turned off the radio.

"Okay, Sebastian. I can’t calm if you're still here. Please, let me calm here one night only. Agree? Agree!" I like crazy, talk and answer themselves. But I could be real crazy if I have to be with Sebastian tonight. No!

Slowly, I opened the cupboard. And I continued to say the name of God, I took Sebastian out of the cupboard. I took him down the stairs and find the right place to put Sebastian skeleton. With an increasing heart rate and irregular taste, I walked around the house with him looking for somewhere to put him. But the effort did not produce anything. Like a maid just going to bed.

I'm suspicious of George. Surely he killed Sebastian. "But why?" I thought. If the reason is because once he was a student of medicine, he's probably used to using Sebastian as experiment materials.

I'm trying to find a clue, maybe I can get the answers of all questions. I tried looking under the mattress, there may be a clue. I went down to the George room, there is also a wardrobe and a small cupboard beside the bed. I opened the wardrobe and small cupboard, but there is nothing clue. I drove through the kitchen and I finally found a bloody glove that had dried up. But only one glove, not a pair. Where the one of the gloves? "I guess, George used to kill Sebastian with these glove." I said in my heart.

Suddenly, I felt someone was passing behind me. I looked, and tried to chase the shadow. "Hello, George? Did you go home?" And from the side he fell into me. "Miiiaaaaaooooow!" turns out it was a cat. "Damn it!"

Passing through the kitchen, I went to the warehouse next to the stairs. Dusty warehouse. I picked up and read a few books that look very outdated. I brushed the dust on the surface of the book. Then blow.

"August" I surprised my name listed in the book cover. I immediately threw it and I ran to the door. Locked. It's very horror. I ran to my room. I felt worse when I read my name listed there. "Is it after Sebastian, George will kill me? Was he a psycopat?" the question spinning in my brain.

I tried to sleep, close my eyes and ignore if any sound. Footsteps sounded very close and it sounded like a round bed. I hope it's just a hallucination. But I'm still hesitant to open my eyes.

Well, I finally opened my eyes slowly. It was not George!!!!!!   I saw Sebastian walking around.

"Whoaaaaaaaaaa!!! Whaaa! Sebastian! Please, do not kill me .. I promise, I would not think to move you again. Please, forgive me!" I screamed. I was shaking. I do not think Sebastian could rise again.  I closed my eyes and kept begging Sebastian forgive. He's touching me! I was getting hysterical.

"Noooo! Please, do not touch me! Do not kill me! Sebastian Do not touch me!" I screamed again.

"Open your eyes! I'm George! I'm not Sebastian."

“Carlton, you appeared?” Seeing someone in front of me is George, I'm getting more hysterical.

"George! George! For all my fault to you, please forgive me and let me go home. Do not kill me!"

And suddenly, everything was dark.

Two years later, I read about my self and Sebastian in one of Carlton's detective stories. Actually, George is an author now. He was telling about me and Sebastian skeleton in his detective stories. Sebastian’s skeleton, I don’t know what truly happen to him. This is the big secret of George and truly a something crazy.  But I’m very lucky, now I wasn’t a skeleton like him.
