Incidents
A week or so later, things began to happen in the house, little things that were showing signs of the danger that would be ahead. While walking down the stairs one day, Micheal stepped on a thumbtack that was placed upwards on one of the steps. He screamed in pain and fell down.
The family came around him to help him back up and to see what had happened, everyone except Natalia. For some reason, someone had placed the thumbtack in that position on purpose, but the Barnetts at the time thought it was just a random accident of carelessness. Oh, how wrong they would be.
