I jumped from my bed when I heard a loud scream. I didn't know where it was coming from so I was pretty spooked myself. Then I hear a loud scream again. So I got up from my bed to go to my parents room, just to find out my dad was the only one there, so I decided to wake him up. He got mad that I woke him up so early because he starts work early next morning, so I told him everything about what I heard and he didn't believe my nonsense and told me to go to bed but I asked, ¨Why isn't mom here sleeping with you?¨ It was about 9 at the time so I didn't know very much. He told me she went to a store or something like that but I didn't believe him and said he acted suspicious in the situation. So he got up and took me back to my room without any explanation and set me down and told me to fall asleep. So I did. Time went by I heard a knock on my door. I secretly got up and took a sneak peak but there was no one. As I silently went downstairs I heard scratch noises coming from a door, then I realized it was the basement. I grabbed a flashlight from my dads toolbox and went downstairs. As I was going downstairs, I heard more footsteps coming, so I quickly went inside without hesitation, as I was inside I turned on the flashlight. Then I experienced the worst gruesome horrifying thing ever. It was my mom hanging against the wall with a knife pin on her throat gasping for help. Her blood dripping from her neck. I froze in shock. I quickly went upstairs. As I went up, I saw my dad with the biggest smile on his face. I called him a lunatic which got him very furious and he tried to hurt me but I went under him and went outside yelling for help. Then our neighbors heard me yelling and asked me to come in. I told them to quickly call the police. Shortly after they came and arrested my dad. I hope I never experience this horrifying scene again.
