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.864Please respect copyright.PENANA6wkwhZP31B
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to864Please respect copyright.PENANAjJOutLETOp
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.864Please respect copyright.PENANAqaxdpDuk2I
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.864Please respect copyright.PENANAj8AKG3Gv5Z
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!864Please respect copyright.PENANACqXMHxNd5Y
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.864Please respect copyright.PENANASZHwMV1zpl
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.864Please respect copyright.PENANAiNTUVsTgmk
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.864Please respect copyright.PENANAVU6qO347be
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,864Please respect copyright.PENANAuHtddscPHn
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.864Please respect copyright.PENANAKzzBlJPYhb
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!864Please respect copyright.PENANAWXwjP9LAcK
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you864Please respect copyright.PENANAqjEoiT0eya
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.864Please respect copyright.PENANAswP2OlRqkQ
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.864Please respect copyright.PENANAqsPwjb0Cor
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!864Please respect copyright.PENANADhkdWTZBCM
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.864Please respect copyright.PENANAzQcKg9SwIz
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.864Please respect copyright.PENANAgzZU7I2nP1
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.864Please respect copyright.PENANANIHiiizFp3
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being864Please respect copyright.PENANAOIHbkoWUJ9
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.864Please respect copyright.PENANAr8CyU5y9cH
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.864Please respect copyright.PENANAMp7f0PExDi
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what864Please respect copyright.PENANAGchhBQFHHG
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.864Please respect copyright.PENANAAJCJXWOfjP
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.864Please respect copyright.PENANAom11vy7rMB
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably864Please respect copyright.PENANAU1VQY3Fzox
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two864Please respect copyright.PENANAAwWjkKPaw1
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.864Please respect copyright.PENANAaeXhtnQHnH
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the864Please respect copyright.PENANA38KVgbuWfV
door at the end of the hall.864Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1kGS9ciGB
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.864Please respect copyright.PENANA5q6YDUvsFC
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.864Please respect copyright.PENANAUL3hZLSUKp
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle864Please respect copyright.PENANAGBKRYl7QC7
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 864Please respect copyright.PENANAhI6EtjT1to
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room864Please respect copyright.PENANAyjwuleCjSu
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part864Please respect copyright.PENANAh6bDkcrxKI
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered864Please respect copyright.PENANA5kKPGFtiSD
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.864Please respect copyright.PENANAvuDu08ZhAY
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through864Please respect copyright.PENANA2buQEmfJ7G
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.864Please respect copyright.PENANA7GEH0zjSsx
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded864Please respect copyright.PENANAsWG4LNwy4V
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead864Please respect copyright.PENANAH1bXfd01vD
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.864Please respect copyright.PENANAt7UJfsEpJ3
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.864Please respect copyright.PENANALpE8TE1xS6
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
