When I arrived home late that night my mum told me "You are going to the opposite house with your older brother to clean up the attic and the kitchen." A chill went down my spine and with all the horror I managed to say "Why do we need to go? She answered me telling me"It's a special favor from the opposite house. My brother and I made our way to the opposite house. I didn't tell him about the story of the red eyes. He opened the door and found the switch to the lights and the whole place illuminated. The place was crystal clean at the hall then my brother told me that even though this place is so clean the kitchen and the attic are in a total mess. So let's split up.

I didn't even breathe and then I saw it the two red eyes which have been scaring me. I didn't say anything until he came to the light when I saw that it was a dog.
