This house is haunted!

We had finally arrived. The house was filthy. Lots of webs, bugs, and pests. It seems that this house is really old. it was rumored that there was an owner who d!ed in here. It could be haunted. This was the cheapest house for sale. Still wondering why it was still for sale though. Who in their right mind would want this house? Of course, my mother and I had no choice.

"Mom! I am going inside now." I tell her as i go inside. Not only that, but it is super dark even though it is daytime. I go to the switch. However, the switch doesn't seem to work. The house is full of webs, pests, dirty things, dirty corners, and more. walking around, it is really dark. It's hard to see a single thing which is why i got a flashlight. As i am walking, i notice that there is a second floor. It seems that this house has a second floor. Though scared, i go upstairs. With every step, i could hear creaks. As i am stepping on each stair step, i start to wonder what if this second floor doesn't exist?... It also seems that the stairs is long. I am counting each step i am taking. I finally reached the second floor. A total of...

 "50 STEPS!???" i say, shocked. It seems that this floor is where all the rooms are. I have reached. On my right side, it seems that there is a 3rd floor. However, ... I am not going there. I know i got guts going to the 2nd floor but i am not trying again.. On to the room section. there are three roomss to choose from. First, the pitch black room. This room is really pitch black and dark. It's terrifying... .......

 "Disapprove! On to the next one!" i state with a thumbs down. i head to the next room. The brown room. Lots of pests and webs. Seems quite nice looking if it were to be cleaned. However, i have a phobia of spiders so my choice will depend on whether the next aka the last room will be.

"disapprove!" another thumbs down. I head to the next room.. ...A.....

"pink room? Did a girl live here?" i start to wonder. This room also has webs.

 "Who am i kidding.. This is an old house.. Of course there will be webs and pests!" I sigh.

 "But.. What if the previous owner haunts me and my mother for living in their house? Scary.... However, i guess i'll approve.. This is a nice pink room after all! So.. Approve!!"

I put a thumbs up and head inside to explore the room. This room is wider and has more space than the others. I see a bed already. I head to the bed. A few seconds later, my flashlight goes out. I forgot i hadn't charged it to full battery.

 "No!!!" i shout in fear as everything becomes dark. I start trembling in fear. Regretting my decision to have went here. I run out of the room. Suddenly, i trip over something.

 "What is this…." i reach out to see what it is.

 "This feels like a flashlight…" i say. As i am touching it trying to find any buttons, i hear a noise. I hear a voice behind me. It sounds….

"Finally. You're here. I have been waiting for you." like a boy… The voice was calm and soft. "A button…" i mumble. I click the button and immediately turn behind. Nobody is there. My mind immediately wanders... "Nobody… i have read this in books before! The main character thinks it's just their thoughts… But… The house is actually haunted! Unfortunately, i will not fall for the tricks!" i run with the flashlight guiding me with light.

"Whew!" i have finally reached outside the house, crouching as i am catching my breath.

"Avery, what happened to you?" my mother asks me. i stand up and tell her everything that happened. She laughs, refusing to believe me.

"Just like in all of those horror shows." my mind thinks. My mother heads inside. She clicks on the switch and it works.

"Hah!? How come!? It didn't work for me! Maybe it Just worked now." i said.

"Right after you came in, i also came in. The switch always works." she replies.

"What!? But how come!? I was on the stairs and i never saw light! Only from my flashlight! The very minute?" i asked her.

"Yes. The very minute. and i didn't see you on the stairs." she replies.

"what!?" my mind thinks. Later, my mother heads to the stairs.

"wait.. Why do the stairs look shorter than usual?" i say. "what? No." she replies. i start counting every step she is taking.

"20 steps!?" i say. Again shocked.

"my dear honey, you must be hallucinating." My mother says. my mind thinks. "No!" the stairs that was on my right side is also gone.

"mom! Where is the 3rd floor!?" i ask pointing to the right side.

"Third floor? Honey, we don't have a 3rd floor." She replies to me.

"i knew it! This house is haunted!" i tell myself.

"honey,stop. It's just your imagination." my mother replied. Angry, also knowing that she wouldn't listen anyway, i agree with her. We start cleaning the house
