I have worked in this house many years, in the house I cooked dinner, I washed clothes, I lived. I did
everything here. In fact, this is the only place I have ever been. I have never left it in my nine years of life.953Please respect copyright.PENANARZTw3gjsaE
One place I have never gone was the Masters room. The Master claimed he simply did not want me in there as not to953Please respect copyright.PENANADupBDTAaXE
mess up his carpet. He thought I was a very filthy child, his wife says black girls carry disease.953Please respect copyright.PENANArb1PCgV5UF
I am sure none of this is true. Why is the door locked with a steel chain? Why is a servant positioned there every
night? There must be a secret behind that door, whether good or bad, I have sworn to figure it out.953Please respect copyright.PENANAeXUex6bgap
Danger would not hold me back, because danger carries excitement!953Please respect copyright.PENANAkaMbmRFclo
I sat in a dark basement room, my seven year old sister lay on a filthy bare matress.953Please respect copyright.PENANA9ChAkjLdGY
It was accompanied only by a small sheet licked with mud.953Please respect copyright.PENANAhSZTAe8jCh
It was her turn on it tonight, so I get to sleep in the corner.953Please respect copyright.PENANAmtKVpFSOLY
Neither of us have names, we don't talk much either. We have little time to talk,953Please respect copyright.PENANAi3hGeKSyfo
we need as much sleep as possible so we can work well the next day.953Please respect copyright.PENANAxNh2BtFwzk
None of this matters. What matters is the mystery behind that door!953Please respect copyright.PENANA2gskLm5r9X
I sat with my legs crossed on a wooden chair. The thin layer of white paint was mostly pealed, but you953Please respect copyright.PENANAa1Pjw8L4eU
can hardly tell because of how dimly lit the room is.953Please respect copyright.PENANAi6MXfzK9Xs
I began a lengthy plot, it made my head hurt at how complicated it was.953Please respect copyright.PENANAHQpIMk5vcr
Then a smile spread across my face, it would be so easy!953Please respect copyright.PENANAa8htCN2w9X
They don't even lock the doors at night, all it takes is a disguise.953Please respect copyright.PENANA6WmUgeQmGU
The gaurd is so out of focus, he is probably asleep on the floor.953Please respect copyright.PENANAHXbXqdZkG5
It's so dark, they would hardly recognise me.953Please respect copyright.PENANAYGXVbRBCUf
I crept up to my sisters spot on the bed. "Hey." I whispered gently, being953Please respect copyright.PENANAUYGT2buitO
cautious not to scare her. She yawned and rolled over. "Hey!" I whispered more harshly.953Please respect copyright.PENANAGNFUcXjYvh
Her eyes peeled open. "What is it?" She muttered, her voice cracked a little.953Please respect copyright.PENANAY3A3GHTs7i
"Shush, I need your sheet real quick." I shot quietly. "I'm going to figure out what953Please respect copyright.PENANAveM8RYTucH
is behind the door." Her eyes darted towards mine. "Are you crazy?" She said grimly.953Please respect copyright.PENANA8T40sbcGH4
"I guess." I smirked. She shoved the sheet to my hands. "Be quick." She warned.953Please respect copyright.PENANAVjwfdMIOUq
I put the sheet over my back, I tied it around my neck. It probably953Please respect copyright.PENANArHJ0ZYT9co
looked exactly like the masters wifes shawl. I gently nudged open the door, I took two953Please respect copyright.PENANAumiSU8196G
dainty steps up the small 'corrider'.953Please respect copyright.PENANAUfVr4DoqJH
I stood in the middle of the hall, I slunk around the corner and caught sight of the953Please respect copyright.PENANAFITH71Waua
door at the end of the hall.953Please respect copyright.PENANAlFOEvVtQSy
I bunched the shawl together, and I smiled when I caught sight of the sleeping servant.953Please respect copyright.PENANAyVUsU8RkZF
All I needed to do was take a peek in and dart away, they'll never know it was me.953Please respect copyright.PENANA0w3dn9cwlU
I crept down the hall, a chill ran down my spine. This was it. A bright unmoving candle953Please respect copyright.PENANAO1PwGDDvql
light could be seen under the door. I cracked it open, and nearly tripped when I 953Please respect copyright.PENANATUCgnPuYlS
saw what was inside. Thousands of bulbs of light hung from the walls, they lit the room953Please respect copyright.PENANAdOI4wdYXFc
up so bright they made my eyes sore. That wasn't the best part, the best part953Please respect copyright.PENANA4Tcu1Bkx2j
was the giant pearl-white portal in the middle of the wooden floor, it glimmered953Please respect copyright.PENANAWCW84FMYFD
invitingly, and it seemed to hold a hand out to me.953Please respect copyright.PENANAGzNCfL4AZ0
I walked towards it put my hand in. I had a sensation of peace and safety go through953Please respect copyright.PENANACnMkPyBcxh
me. I didn't hesitate, I just dove.953Please respect copyright.PENANAFzst2yHUx4
I slammed into the concrete ground of another reality. I arrived in a crowded953Please respect copyright.PENANAVKkrJAOx0e
street filled from end to end with many different races. I looked ahead953Please respect copyright.PENANAMY48PXcQdu
of me and saw a beautiful green lady holding the torch of freedom.953Please respect copyright.PENANAeVeRQBaU4q
She looked over me, and then I knew the time of slavery has ended.953Please respect copyright.PENANABTLBfjRqGO
Someday my sisters children would hopefully live in this too.
(This only took an hour. I write too fast, do I?)
