Everything seemed distinctly odd. There was something different in the air and I seemed to be the only person who could perceive it. We turned on the corner of 63rd street and I recognized the My grandparents beach house.

I was filled with warm memories of the holidays and the hot summer days I had spent in this house.My cousin Vinny parked the car in the driveway. I get off the car and glance around the area.l always loved to look up at the house from the walkway, at this viewone could see the perfection of the lavish structure.

The roof peruse over the porch blocking some sunlight giving way to the right amount.The numerous coconut trees at the sides of the house were all crooked but yet still formed a prodigiousOne of my pattern favourite experiences of the beach house as a child was collecting the eccentric sea shells that were on or deep within the soft, white, crystallised sand.I moved forward towards the main entrance of the house.

I see none of my cousin outside of house. I felt strange because they were all over the place.Well I was welcomed by Mr. Wilfred was the oldest and sweetest person.

He works for my grandparents from a generation ago." Welcome zoe... your grandparents and parents are waiting for you on breakfast" "Thank you it's happy to see you and where is everyone else"I grin" Everyone is in dining room zoe"

As I walk thru the long narrow hallway on my way to the dining room, I see huge pictures of family members hung on both sides of the smooth colorful wall. It seems like you’re walking forever, then I finally reach the door of the infamous dining room You’re first greeted by the tall, wide, almond color and trimmed in gold door.

The door knob is always cold to touch like you’re touching a block of ice. When you walk into the door the room is so cold, it feels like you’re standing outside in a snow storm.It looks as if it’s the same size as a football field.

As you step in, you immediately sink a couple of inches because of how plush the caramel colored carpet is. The long glamorous chandelier hangs from the high vaulted ceilings. Immediately to your left is a marble sink, with silver pull out fixtures and deep sink bowls.

The burnt orange and brown colors on the wall are so bright, it looks like the sun is shining directly above the room. The walls are covered with many paintings " Good morning everyone... I said loudly Everyone flash grinned except Hannah. She is one of my cousins. I don't why she doesn't like me... well I moved towards the grandma and grandpa and hugged them both and greeted everyone. Mom told me to sit next to himI sit next to mom and on the other side of the table Abby was sitting followed by Tyler, Hannah and Luke and my uncle's and aunties.Abby, Luke, Vinny and Hannah were my cousins and Tyler is my far far relative. He lives with my grandparents and we were like childhood friends.Abby hit me under the table on my leg and I glanced on her... she pointed me to go out with them on beach but seriously I was so tired I can't even move a muscle.I excuse everyone and got up from the seat.Mom also got up and told me I'll show you your room. I felt a bit odd because I knew where my room was and why my mom wanted to come with me.

I knew right away that something was going on behind my back... well we walked in the hallway and Mom said," Zoe your grandparents held a party tonight so be ready for that by 8 o'clock and please behave good in front of guests''`` O God! mom you don't need to lie to me I knew what are you trying to do.

We had this conversation over and over again I don't want to marry with your friend son period"I said to mom and put the ipod in my ears to not listen to this shit again.I went to the my room and locked the door from inside.I jumped right over the bed and pull the cover on... I played soft music and fall in sleep.

I was Sleeping peacefully in my bed, I was cradling a pillow to my chest. I groaned when the first beam of bright light hit my face.Picking up the alarm clock from the nightstand, I looked at the time.“Ugh, Oh I'm late why didn't someone wake me up?” I placed the clock back on the surface and slowly began to sit up.

I put my hand to my head which was throbbing. “Nothing a little Excedrin can’t handle.” Crawling out of my warm bed, I walked to my bathroom and took out two pills to take, pouring tap water into my rinse cup.

Once I took my medicine, I jumped into a shower, after taking shower.I put on the bathrobe and wrapped my hair in a towel. I put my suitcase on the bed and unzipped it." ugh! what to wear for the party?I put on a red tulle -short skirt and I paired it with a sequined tube top.

I do Smokey eyes make up and curl my hair with hair curler and I almost burn myself in rush. I heard a knock on the door. I turned off the hair curler machine..." Wait... I'm coming just a moment" I yell and put on a pair of ankle heels and went to open the door.

I open the door slightly to see who's there." Open the door it's me Abby!I pull the door and Abby stepped inside the room. She scanned me from head to toe and asked me, Why are you so dress up... don't tell me you are dressed up for party"" Yeah! you are right..." I knew that but thank God I came on the right time for your rescue"I left my one brow and said, What do you mean? I don't understand what rescue she said. She took a pause and glanced over my suitcase and took a black handbag from it and then she twirls on her heel. She handed me the bag and said," Obviously I'm not gonna leave you alone at an old people's party.

We're all going to nightclub"" Wait... what!... she didn't give me a chance to speak. She shoved her arm around me and pushed me out of the room and I thought maybe it's good for me to not go the party because of that Rich guy which mom's wants me to meet.

We both walked out of the house and saw Tyler in his car he started checking out me for a good few seconds. he was surprised to me coming with them. we get in Tyler car and Hannah and Luke were in second car.I wore seatbelt and Tyler asked me, All set ladies"I don't want to answer him so I stayed quiet the whole time but I knew Tyler was peeking through the rare view mirror.

Finally,we reached at club and Tyler parked his car on the entrance of the club. me and Abby get off the car andAs we walked in we headed to the bar to order some drinks. As we were waiting for our drinks, I noticed a man sitting to my left, all by himself at the end of the bar. he was giving me creepy vibes. I sit on the bar stool next to Abby.I glanced around in the club..The club is hundreds of conversations told in loud voices, all of them competing with the rock music that dominates the atmosphere. The crowd is young, Tyler winds his way through the warm bodies to order a drink - the dark local beer. Before the drink is poured he feels someone melting their body to his from behind and I saw Hannah has arrived. I roll my eyes..." Oh God! here she comes Miss Drama Queen. I have to bare her tonight"I shift my gaze on the other side of the bar and wonder if I could melt into this bar. I'd be the vibe, move around as easily as the smoke. I'd soak in the laughter and the smiles, dance upon each octave in microscopic disco shoes. But meanwhile, back in reality instead of my imaginary world, I'm life-size, and so... instead I'll step into the shaded room that opens my eyes all the wider, see the muted colours of the bottles and the glitter then finds every spark of light. As the night goes on, I'll be more comfortable in this crowd, intoxicated by spirits and the moments all the same.

Tyler tap me on the shoulder and I turned my face towards him and he said, ``can we dance." Ummm sorry but I have to use restroom, you can dance with Abby or Hannah"I got up from the bar stool and make my way towards the restroom.

I walked through the narrow corridor towards the ladies restroom but suddenly I heard something first thought which comes in my mind, " maybe it's just in my mind" I moved forward but then I again Heard it. I pause and twirl on my heels." Where is the voice coming from?I moved towards the end of the corridor and saw a door and there was a sign hanging on the door and it's "say's only for staff" I drew my ear closer to the door... I heard...
