Sobbing of my brother
Swiftly the breeze blows back and fourth, pinches María’s ears with the speed. As she woke up mysteriously on the roof of her house. Frightened as she was , she screamed “mommy help help” anxiety filled her appetite for the entire day. Puzzled on how she reached on the roof. Maria quickly realized the only thing that was on the roof with her was her teddy bear.
Growing up Maria had a younger sibling Timothy, they spent the most time with each other. Climbed mountains, walked through the toughest valleys all together. The love for each other was immensurable. It wasn't meant to be, Timothy was born with numerous complications, Doctor's knew he had an expiry date. The parents Simon and Marisa was in despair hearing this news drops of tears raced down their cheeks. "He will live for a maximum of 8 years" said Dr. Thryix. They never told Maria, they are too scared of how terrified she would be. This information clouded their minds for as long as Timothy closes his eyes one last time.
Marisa gifted a teddy bear to Maria. This was to make Maria grow a connection as close to one as how it is between she and her brother. Realistically the brotherly bond with Timothy could never be matched especially with a non living thing. Years have gone by and the sorrow and pain hasn’t faded. Hard to come to terms to bury his body, they finally put him to rest.
The teddy bear had been holding the spirit of Timothy, he tried unlocking and create new memories, by bringing her on top of the roof. Tempted was the teddy bear to wrestle Maria over the roof so the siblings could reunite in one place. “Argh” the sound of Marisa grunting with a knife in her hand. After she saw what was happening she ran with a knife ready to slash the teddy bear in minced parts. Frightened has they both were, Maria ran into her mother hands. “I’m sorry to put you through this my love” whispered Marisa. As Maria noticed her mother said my love she quickly remembered her mother calls her sweety. Sparked with confusion Maria looked up and realize the person she was hugging now had an hideous appearance, ghastly smile and lanky hair; the descriptions of a shape shifting witch. The witch now knows Maria knows everything. That her plan with the teddy bear was all her idea. So she had no choice but to catapult Maria over the roof.
