Inside the Room...

Without a thought Sister Anne opened a door, ran inside. She then immediately closed it behind her. The room itself was dark at the moment with no visible windows to bring in the light that even night could offer.

All Sister Anne could do at that moment was breathe heavily in and out from exhaustion while she cried profusely. She could not go out there nor did she want to. She was scared. With her back to the door Sister Anne slid down to the floor, wrapped her arms around her legs and prayed for her lord as she sat there. That is when she heard a voice.

Somewhere in the dark room a female voice called out to Sister Anne. "Why are you crying, my child?" the voiced asked.

Sister Anne assumed she had run into one of the other sisters room and had woken her up. In a quick response Sister Anne apologized and said "I did not mean to wake you sister."

The female voice replied back "You did not wake me, child. I have been up. Come turn on the light and let me comfort you from the troubles that ill you."

When Sister Anne heard those words she managed to get off the ground and turned on the lights. But as they turned on Sister Anne did not see what she was expecting to see. She thought she would see a bedroom with a fellow sister sitting up in her bed. What she actually saw were many boxes stacked on each other, paintings leaning against each other near a wall, and four statues. Of these four statues three of them were covered up and one female statue was not. This statue, well crafted and painted to look as real as it could, was looking at Sister Anne.

Sister Anne shaked badly and asked "Where are you?" hoping that the statue was not the voice that spoke to her earlier. Hoping that a sister was playing a sick joke on her. Naturally the female statue did what Sister Anne feared. It answered.

"I am right here, my child. Fear not for I will not harm you. We only want to comfort you. To make you happy." The female statue said as her arms opened up to welcome Sister Anne in a loving brace...
