Annabelle took a deep breath and made her decision. "I'm not going back," she said, her voice firm. "I want to meet my real parents."

Her fake mother's face fell, a mixture of shock and despair. "Annabelle, please reconsider. You don't know what you're getting yourself into."

But Annabelle stood firm. "Liam, I'm ready to face the truth," she said. "Take me to them."
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSOV4k1D4t
Liam nodded, a small smile on his face. "I'll take you to them," he said. "But be warned, Annabelle, once you meet them, there's no going back."

Annabelle mentally prepared herself and followed Liam, leaving behind the only life she had ever known. As they walked, the trees seemed to close in around her, casting deep shadows that stretched and twisted in the fading light.

They reached a small cottage on the outskirts of the forest, smoke curling from the chimney. Annabelle's heart raced as Liam knocked on the door.

It opened to reveal a woman with kind eyes and a warm smile. "Annabelle," she said, her voice trembling. "We've been waiting for you."
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmU65mR6zL
Annabelle felt a lump form in her throat as she gazed at the woman. Her real mother.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSjRzTWXGW
Annabelle's real mother, Emma, enveloped her in a warm embrace. "We've missed you so much," she whispered, tears streaming down her face.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotldp5RvMz
Annabelle felt a wave of emotions wash over her as she hugged Emma back. She had so many questions, but for now, she just savored the moment.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GrVMGBcid
Emma's husband, Jack, stood behind her, a gentle smile on his face. "Welcome home, Annabelle," he said, his eyes shining with tears.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2a0o1uHe0z
As they entered the cozy cottage, Annabelle felt a sense of belonging she had never experienced before. This was where she was meant to be.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnvS1UFrOh
But as they sat down to dinner, Annabelle couldn't shake off the feeling that her fake family wouldn't let her go without a fight.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaRdvvLed7
"Emma, Jack, what happens now?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmvWazeIfs
Emma's expression turned serious. "We'll need to protect you, Annabelle. Your fake family will stop at nothing to keep you from us."
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbC352uAMF
Annabelle's heart skipped a beat. She knew she had made the right decision, but she also knew that her journey has only begun.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJW9gvvUux
As they finished dinner and the night drew to a close, Annabelle felt a sense of determination and responsibilities wash over her. She was ready to face whatever lay ahead, knowing that she had finally found her true home.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwThn9ZxxDM
But little did she know, her fake family was already closing in, their sinister plans threatening to destroy everything she held dear...
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVav5oEn9T
As the night wore on, Annabelle grew more anxious. Emma was right, Annabelle knows her fake family will stop at nothing to grasp whatever is profitable to them, they are predictable in that aspect.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVYJdm2Wdf
"Emma, Jack, what's the plan?" she asked, her voice laced with concern, worrying her questions will eventually annoy them.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlbhD07YzH
Emma's expression turned resolute. "We'll leave at dawn. We have a safe house, far from here."
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJIu1U8w0u
But as they prepared for bed, a loud crash echoed from outside. Annabelle's heart raced as she rushed to the window.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxyVgC3pH2
Her fake family, led by her fake mother, stood in the darkness, their eyes blazing with malice.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3XW10wXRp
"You'll never take her from us," her fake mother spat, her voice venomous.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG22sWFHyFA
Annabelle panicked. She knew she had to act fast, she doesn't want a revisit of what happened to her grandma to strike her parents.
And then, everything went black.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1AxviiYr8
Annabelle groggily opened her eyes to find herself in a strange room. Emma and Jack were nowhere to be seen.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmfzN63oUR
But as she struggled to sit up, a figure emerged in her blurry view.
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPl0l3w9pn
"Annabelle, we have to go," Liam said, his voice urgent. "Now."
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM2mwAyj5U
Annabelle slowly stumbled out of bed. What happened? Where is Emma and Jack?
Gone, said Liam.
Gone where she asked.
Not now Annabelle, i need to get you to safety first. As they fled into the night, Annabelle realized that In fact, her nightmares was only just beginning, this time, it's happening in the real world.
