Stephanie had moved into a new house just over 3 months ago, she was liking it there. She had made her room how she wanted it, her parents, Lois and Jackson had settled in nicely. Stephanie was an only child and was just turned 14. Her parents were young, only in their late 30’s to early 40’s. They were cool as well. Her dads brother was a famous actor, his sister was a model. Her moms sister, on the other hand, was quite.. strange..
Daphne Strangerston, an ironic surname since she was quite strange. Stephanie had only met her 3 or 4 times, but of those 3 or 4 times she always got a strange vibe from her. Daphne was an older woman, she appeared to be 50-60 years old. Grey hair, quite plump and only wore black.
Today was a get together that Stephanie’s family had organised, her Dads famous brother was there, as was his model sister, his parents too. Though as well as them came along Lois’ sister, Daphne. Lois’ mother had died 4 years after she was born and her father had died 5 years prior to the event. Stephanie always assumed that her mother got the loving, jolly, happy go lucky side from her own parents and that Daphne was just outside of that, but she wouldn’t be able to know.
Stephanie walked downstairs to meet everyone, they were very kind and happy, they had a nice chat and a little laugh, but Stephanie could feel Daphne’s eyes burning a hole in the back of her head.
The get together was blast, Stephanie always enjoyed hanging out with her family. Daphne didn’t really get involved, she just stood there, didn’t even eat any of the food. Stephanie went into her bedroom and started messing around on her smartphone. Then she noticed something, her clothes seemed a little small. She’s growing, it’s normal. But her mother would have pointed it out.
‘Wait hold on, I’m still growing, my clothes are getting smaller,’ Stephanie thought in panic, she looked around, the room was getting smaller too.
