The Door

Tim, a young 8 year old boy, was forced to move out of his home by a war. He hated the idea of leaving his home but he had no choice – it was for his safety. And now he was already in a new home; there was no going back, it was too late. He was living with Mr Xander in the meantime and was instructed to sleep in the empty storage room under the stairs. It was a little bit cramped but at least he had somewhere to stay. He had three meals a day and they had to be eaten in the kitchen on the dining table. But the one thing Tim would always wonder is why the stove looked really unpleasant.

 

Tim was enrolled in school a few days later. He really did really well in school and became one of the top students in the entire school (mainly because back at home he was in one of the top schools.) He had classes like math class, English class, science class and many more others too. He had a few friends who he would play with at break and lunchtime and he sat in the third row of his classroom. Once he arrives home he has to do a few things; he has to wash the dishes, fold the clothes, sweep the floors and lay out his bed – if he is lucky enough Mr Xander may do some of his work or all of it!

 

One night Tim decided to explore the house a little more and found out that there was a door, a door he had never seen before, a door with loads of chains over it. The door… the door which he soon found out he was never allowed in. Tim began to have a million thoughts rush into head like, what is behind this door, why is it here, does fate lie behind this door? ”Tim”, shouted Mr Xander, Tim froze where he stood, “TIM” Mr Xander boomed as he came rushing up the steps. By now Tim would have wet his pants but he was so scared he nearly forgot how to breathe, “Tim what are you?-,” Mr Xander spoke, “GET AWAY FROM THAT DOOR!!!” “That door is for you to never enter, you hear me?” he continued. 

 

Tim was sent straight to bed after that but first he wanted to have a bath and so he did. But as he got out and put his clothes on he went straight to bed and heard weird sounds coming from the door. The questions in his head came back like a bullet and he had to get them answered so he got up and walked through the gloomy hallway, all the way to the forbidden door that seems to have grown in height, but it did not matter him and so he entered and saw something that would traumatize him forever.
