Pitter-patter, pitter-patter.

I paused the TV, and listened closer.

Pitter-patter, pitter-patter.

It sounded like something was in the attic.

Pitter-patter, pitter-patter.

Oh man, the attic. I haven't been up there in a week or so. But what would be moving up there?

''Pitter-patter, pitter-patter. Thump''.

I got up from the comfortable couch, and walked over to one of the cabinets in the kitchen. I grabbed a flashlight, preparing for my expedition. If I remember right, but the entrance was in the garage.

On my way there, I glance at my family photos, asking them to wish me luck.

I walked into the garage, and walked to the center of the room. I pulled down on the rope, and let down the foldable ladder. I climbed up, and into the cobwebbed filled attic.

I pressed the button, and watched as part of the space of illuminated. I shone it around the room. I saw that everything was in order, then I pointed it towards the center of the room.

It illuminated the face of a little girl, her body paled and rapidly deteriorating. She looked as if she may be starved.

"Daddy, can I come out now?" Her voice like that of a angel.

"No!" I went over and slapped her, her check feeling warm for the moment my hand was on it. "That's for disturbing me and making me come up here!"

I spat on her fallen body, and left.

I un-paused the TV, and continued with the movie.
