First he thought his parents were hiding it in a place he couldn’t reach, so he couldn’t open it before morning. Another thought in his mind was that he was old enough to get himself a present. However a 2nd grader, he thought he was still young. Before the winter vacation started, his friend Fred told him, “This year my mom said she isn’t buying a present cause I’m old enough to buy myself a present!” Fred was really enraged at his parents. The word “Old” has been a parasite in his mind. However he was thinking in an affirmative way that the box was in the house. Slowly the sky turned gray and he still couldn’t find the cursed box. He did everything that he could do to find the surprise. He even checked outside of his house looking over the bushes, climbing to the tree house, and checking the mailbox. But there was nothing. He was freezing like a baby polar bear, shivering from the cold. As soon as he got into the house, he threw off his shoes and ran for the heater. Meanwhile, he saw a box wrapped with colorful paper on the chair that was under the dinner table. He glanced at the dinner table and ran towards it. He finally found the object that woke him up early. He took the box front of the refrigerator and checked if it was Christmas today, then sat down slowly on the chair and took a deep breath. Then he tore off the wrapping gently. He remembered the chocolates that his dad bought as gifts for the costumers of his company as a sign of thanks. He aggressively wrapped the whole box and threw it away towards the Christmas tree. He decided to surrender against his parents and went up the stairs. As he went up the stairs, it was wet. He couldn’t see what color was it, but he disregarded the liquid.  However he opened his parents door, the curtain was fully opened. The room was full of sunshine. Then he saw all the liquid he was standing on. Dark, thick and red. It was a red pool around the bed. Beside the bed, there was a man covered with red with a smile. Brian’s blood froze, and screamed. The man started to chase the little kid. Brian was running for his life and ran out and shouted for help. Luckily something happened that would happen in a movie, there was a patrol car passing right front of the house. The police officer saw a little kid and a man covered with blood. The officers had no doubt that was an incident. Soon as they got off the car, one officer came to Brian. All the sudden Brian’s face turned red. He had felt so comforted by the police officer; however, he still couldn’t comprehend the horror that had just abrupt in front of him.
