a family by the name of the Jacksons were nothing but an Ordinary family
a family that had nothing special about it, and also a family that was too boring.
so it was not a surprise when they wept, after receiving that announced the passing their grandparents.
the letter involved instructions about what to do with the bodies, and where to bury them.
but it contained one strange line at the end of it. '' its your turn my dear son and also your family's turn''
Bamboozled and confused about the last words that his grandparents left him.
he could only wish they stayed alive for a bit more. so he could ask them about it.
but the thoughts slowly disappeared as he could only focus on a family of two sons and a wife that were in tears.
---------------
the father started thinking if he went crazy.
he would have the same Nightmare over and over and over and over.
of a figure that could not be describe by words. a figure that hinges on the border of reality and the unknown.
but the figure was far,far,far,far,far,far,far,far away. and its speed made it look like it was frozen in time.
but the dream was different one day.
it was not a white room that kept expanding.
it was the outside of his house and the figure while still far away. was coming closer each and everyday.
the dad thought about approaching it but he thought about his grandparents words ''your next''.
so it must be a generational thing. so a old family member must have tried facing head on and failed.
he thought and thought and thought of what he could do.
to only realize that the one thing each dream shared was the slowness of this thing.
so he came to a conclusion that they must move away to some place far, far away.
while the thing was approaching his house, its slowness give him enough time to move out.
while was convincing his family to move to the other side of the country especially his wife.
who was suspicious of sudden desire to move out and lack of reasoning.
but as couple should do. he told her the truth while she was shocked and thought he was going insane, believed him.
after seeing the man who never got scared of anything, scared to his core while telling her.
while still somewhat against the sudden moving out. came to also somewhat accept it as believed the man who vowed to tell the truth.
while for the kids couldn't do much as their parents agreed.
and so they moved out far far far away to Maine.
where the father felt safe for himself, but worried about the next generations and how will they deal with this calamity of a being.
he felt nothing but guilt.
