I have worked in this house many years, in the house I cooked dinner, I washed clothes, I lived. I did
everything here. In fact, this is the only place I have ever been. I have never left it in my nine years of life.907Please respect copyright.PENANAZKvyGFtbo9
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to907Please respect copyright.PENANA9vKEOCypvY
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.907Please respect copyright.PENANAhZq3IOj56C
I am sure none of this is true. Why is the door locked with a steel chain? Why is a servant positioned there every
night? There must be a secret behind that door, whether good or bad, I have sworn to figure it out.907Please respect copyright.PENANAKRKJLDSioT
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!907Please respect copyright.PENANAphWK7ot7ss
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.907Please respect copyright.PENANAHb8GQK6teD
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.907Please respect copyright.PENANAmncn8V3D0H
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.907Please respect copyright.PENANA0g6KTxusq5
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,907Please respect copyright.PENANAdyL5B09VJ1
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.907Please respect copyright.PENANAiMJk5uE3nM
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!907Please respect copyright.PENANAUzxCt35vce
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you907Please respect copyright.PENANAdmiJYOKX7B
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.907Please respect copyright.PENANAQJAWxzkQVR
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.907Please respect copyright.PENANAThtMd8yVBb
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!907Please respect copyright.PENANA8R5OkfD0wx
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.907Please respect copyright.PENANAdsUPFM8yrO
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.907Please respect copyright.PENANAwyvPdQ9GVY
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.907Please respect copyright.PENANAqpODDxTmr9
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being907Please respect copyright.PENANAzfIU1RiF0M
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.907Please respect copyright.PENANAYz8tfAWX8Z
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.907Please respect copyright.PENANAbTjzy84VLw
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what907Please respect copyright.PENANAuUpyvfTN4Z
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.907Please respect copyright.PENANAOJvSaTx3nz
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.907Please respect copyright.PENANAJD1UxheS2i
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably907Please respect copyright.PENANAmqlP5hXWQv
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two907Please respect copyright.PENANAOd3wWkJZps
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.907Please respect copyright.PENANAVpdg17RGzL
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the907Please respect copyright.PENANA2Fh7wuheAF
door at the end of the hall.907Please respect copyright.PENANAfKel76zFcd
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.907Please respect copyright.PENANAzRBRmioV0K
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.907Please respect copyright.PENANARqEJuK0voq
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle907Please respect copyright.PENANAMvXW8aLlZZ
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 907Please respect copyright.PENANAtQtPJw1MSd
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room907Please respect copyright.PENANAOdd6ldhhx6
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part907Please respect copyright.PENANAbNHL8HhNrA
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered907Please respect copyright.PENANAeWaUhNB0nx
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.907Please respect copyright.PENANAAc7v9O6RWK
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through907Please respect copyright.PENANA8U7qH7uRY8
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.907Please respect copyright.PENANAfLE0iz5dbS
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded907Please respect copyright.PENANABL4Cm5ksOm
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead907Please respect copyright.PENANAYElpktmeDl
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.907Please respect copyright.PENANAY97yiAyllR
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.907Please respect copyright.PENANA7UJ69ZdksQ
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
