They still ended up playing hide-and-seek and running around the house, no matter how hard I tried to get them back into bed.
Grace ran up to me and said:
"Do you want to meet my mom? Then we could invite her to play hide-and-seek with us too."
I froze.
"Sweetheart, what do you mean?"
She looked surprised and said:
"Well, Mom also loved playing hide-and-seek with us. Do you want me to show you where my mom lives? You can finally meet her."
Then Grace took my hand and led me to the BASEMENT DOOR.
She said that if I unlocked it, I would be able to see where her mom lived.
My heart was pounding in my chest.
I took out a hairpin and tried to open the lock. It worked.
The door creaked open, and a SHARP SMELL HIT ME.
