"Chloe, I am now living in a house," I said looking up. "I would have wanted you to be by my side now but you are gone. You left me alone in this cruel world. I hope Donald still remains kind to me so that I don't get angry and kill him." I looked around the room and raised my hands in the air. "This would have been a good time to spend with you, but now you are no more," I said, feeling sad. Minutes later, I heard a knock on the door and wondered why he knocked on the door when I didn't close the door. I walked to the door and walked out of it. "Yes," I said folding my arm to him. "You look really serious," He said, and I breathed in. I was not happy that I got interrupted speaking to Chloe's spirit. "I would like to tell you the time for the evening meal so that you won't be late." He said and I nodded. He lowered his head to me. "What's your name?" He asked and I smiled. "Sophia Chloe," I said and he looked at me once again. "Sophia Chloe, that looks like the name of two people." He said and I nodded. "What is your last name?" He asked and I smiled. "Chloe," I said but he shook his head. "Chloe or Cole?" He said straightening himself up. "Chloe!" I said. He looked at me again. "How can your father's name be Chloe?" He asked. "I chose to bear my mother's name," I said and he nodded. "Alright!" He said and thought for a while. "Speaking about your parents," He said and was about to continue but he looked at me. I wasn't feeling at ease so he decided that we go talk in the living room. Getting to the living room, he pointed to a couch. "You may take your seat." He said. I took my sit on the couch, and he smiled, going to the couch, which was opposite to the one where I was sitting. "Alright." He said and I looked at him. "Talking about your parents," He paused then looked into my eyes. "Where are they?" I looked at him and gave a sad look so as to convince him of what I was about to say. "They are dead," I said and looked down. "I am really sorry for your loss." He said and I shook my head. "Do not worry," I said looking down. "Take it easy." He said and I looked up. "May I ask you another question?" He asked, and I nodded, still keeping the sad face. "Your parent's family, why didn't they take care of you?" He asked, and I thought about the answer to give him. "They told me that I killed my parents. They sent me out of the house, threatening to kill me by burning the house up. "While you are inside!" He exclaimed and I nodded. "And that's the reason I ran out of the house. I could only find the cave where the people I came with live in but I was shocked when they refused that I live with them." I said. "A cave!" He exclaimed and I nodded. "Now I know the reason they refused to accept that you are one of them." He said and I looked at him. "What reason?" I asked. He looked at me and smiled. "They do not want to have to dwell in a cave as they are doing." He said and I nodded. "You may be right," I said smiling. He looked at me once again. "May I ask a question?" He asked and I smiled. "You may ask," I said smiling. "What do you like doing best." He asked and I forgot myself. "I love racing and jumping," I said then came to my senses. I opened my eyes wide as I remembered what I always do with Chloe. "Alright, that's nice. I am going to teach you the art of drawing." He said, and I smiled, remembering how we were taught in the orphanage. I nodded to him. "Another question." He said and I looked at him. "Go on," I said wondering why he was asking me questions. "What class were you able to finish?" He asked and I thought of the class I was with Chloe in the orphanage. I told him of the class I was with Chloe not letting him know that I didn't finish the class. "Alright, that will be all for now." He said. "Alright." I said, then stood up to walk into my room, but he called me back. "I told you that I came to let you know the time you should come down for the evening meal." He said and I nodded. "I was carried away with the questions I was asking." I smiled and stared at him. "There is a wall clock in the room so you can check to know when it is time." He said and I nodded. "You should come down for the evening meal by 7pm." I nodded then went back to the room. Getting to the room, I looked up to see the wall clock. I turned to the door and walked to it. I shut it close. "I must get down in some hours time," I said then remembered what Donald's mother said to me. "How can the woman think I am going to make advances to her son," I said. "Donald is being kind enough to know about me." I went to the bed and sat on it. "I am not human but a vampire, so I can't fall in love with a human but my fellow vampire," I said to myself. "I don't know where my fellow vampires are." I got up from the bed and began to pace the room. "The world is being cruel to us," I said remembering how Chloe was killed. I felt the urge to growl and ran to cover my mouth with the bedspread so I don't attract Donald to the room. I growled on the bedspread, and the bed shook.
