I was awakened in the morning, in my dream, my dad hanging his head, his face covered in blood, shouting at me:
"Why did you see him in that ghostly state and not go help him!
"Why did you eat his eyeballs!"
Just as he was speaking, my mom appeared.
As soon as my mom saw me, she opened her mouth wide, lunging towards me.
In an instant, I woke up in terror.
Before I could catch my breath, my mom entered with medicine.
As soon as I saw her, my guard went up.
This mother in front of me is definitely not my mother, but why is it safer to say that the daytime mother is safer?
Is it because she cannot reveal her true face during the day?
My mom still used her hand with red nails to hand me the medicine, gently telling me to drink it.
Looking at the medicine, the thought that it was made from my dad's eyeballs almost made me vomit.
Without thinking, I shook my head indicating that I didn't want to drink it.
My mom's face suddenly changed: "Yingying, if you don't take the medicine, your illness won't get better, hurry, don't be difficult."
I looked at her, and her eyes emitted a green light in the natural light.
This was a dangerous sign.
I couldn't disobey her.
So I nodded, gritted my teeth and drank the medicine, then when she left, I spit it out into the trash can.
Originally, I wanted to ask the police for help, but I searched the entire house and found nothing out of the ordinary.
I walked into the attic trembling, where there were some odds and ends and a bed.
A bed?
There wasn't a bed here before, when did this bed appear?
Could this bed be for my dad?
I touched it with my hand, a layer of dust on top, obviously it had been sitting here for a long time, but there were no signs of use.
Why is this?
The daytime mom is safer, but I can't let the nighttime mom find me.
And as I searched the house, I didn't find a single cockroach.
But last night I clearly saw a cockroach and squashed it.
Could it be that this house is related to two places.
During the day, it is my real home, so as long as I don't defy my mom, she will control herself from revealing her true self during the day.
But at night, this home is no longer mine, my mom can freely exert her power here.
This also explains why my dad is clearly dead, but still appears in front of me.
But, where did my real mom go?
My younger brother gave me this note before he died, did he already know all of this?
Why did the fake mom come looking for me?
Why did my dad offer up his eyeballs?
I pondered as I returned to the bedroom, intending to take another look at the note.
But I found that there was an additional rule on the note:
7. If you are discovered by the nighttime mom, immediately run into the bedroom, dad will help you, but don't believe what dad says.
As I looked at the words that appeared out of thin air, my hands couldn't help trembling.
I looked around, the windows were locked, and I didn't hear anyone entering the room.
Which means that this sentence was written by itself.
It's true, everything that was happening around me couldn't be explained with common sense anymore.
I focused and thought carefully.
The note says if discovered by the nighttime mom, run into the bedroom immediately.
Does this mean running into the bedroom is safe?
In other words, the nighttime mom can't enter my bedroom.
And dad will help me, which means dad is good, he is my real dad.
But why then warn not to believe what dad says?
If dad is good, why can't I believe what he says?
Isn't that a contradiction?
I felt like my brain was going to explode, but I still couldn't figure it out.
