Friends and I love exploring

So he opens the door all the way and the outside was still a lot brighter than it was inside the little hut thing with our phone flashlights. So like it took me a second to see that the shadow in front of us seemed to be a lot bigger than what Jeff looks like. And as my eyes adjusted to the light, the thing is that um that wasn’t Jeff. 

“Oh, hey girls, what are you doing in here?” He had a normal man voice, not super low or anything, and he’s kinda good looking not gonna lie. And he was so calm about finding strangers in his property?? 

Jenny and I kinda stuttered cuz like ?? were we about to get in really big trouble? And I honestly couldn’t look away cuz I was actually like really scared. Like I knew someone was gonna come back, wasn’t I right? I was right, u can literally see my hesitation to come into the storage unit in my last last post. Ugh. But ok anyway, I look down and next to his thick boots there’s a huge black plastic bag and there’s shapes in there but u can’t really tell what it is.

“Um. we just found this place. The lock wasn’t on so we thought we’d lock it back up for you. We were just leaving.” Jenny said. He didn’t reply. And we didn’t move, we kind of couldn’t. 

He stepped in our direction so he was under the roof of the small wooden hut, and he grunted as he threw the black plastic bag into that corner that smelled really bad. As it landed, the stuff in the bag made a really gross heavy thud. With the size and shape of the bag, it was obvious that he had successfully hunted down an animal. Maybe even a small deer or something. But then Jenny had to go an poke her nose in his business even more and was like “What’d you manage to hunt down? What’s in the bag?” He had his eyes on us the whole time but he looked at the bag up and down before looking back at us and was like “deer”. So, score number 2 for me. Got the deer right and got it right that he’d come back. 

We’re kinda corned by this guy. Like, he’s not massive but he’s medium sized and in a way that I don’t think I could get away if I ran loll. I thought he would have wanted us out the second he saw us, but I don't’ know y’all, he seems super chill and he’s letting us just keep being here. He just closed the door behind him. It’s us three in here now. Ok, now I’m kinda scared. Jenny’s been asking him about how he does his hunts, and about guns and stuff. But we haven’t seen any bullets or anything in here? If he had just killed a deer, shouldn’t he have his gun with him when coming back? I don’t think Jenny understands whats going on. Um, serial killer vibes? Am I crazy? Please tell me I’m thinking too much. Jenny’s asking him about the pictures too, I think he’s getting irritated, but he’s still got a smile on. We should leave, I can’t tell if we’re about to get in trouble with this man so I think I’ll update u later. 

So like in the meantime we’ve been looking around the storage unit. It’s a little weird, not gonna lie. It’s actually kinda dark so we’re using the flashlight on our phones to light up inside the storage unit, right? And we saw the walls and there are so many pictures pinned onto it. Like they’re not in any order but still they’re really messy. Jenny thinks they’re of a family, but honestly I don't think the people in the pics look that similar. Sure, they’ve all got brown hair and stuff but they don’t seem like they’re related. And it’s only one or two people in each pic so yeah. But anyway, we look around some more and we see thick ropes, like thinner than those kinds you use for tug of war but still pretty thick, we see the black plastic bags. Not gonna lie I’m just a little creeped out but Jenny just keeps looking through the stuff. It’s pretty quiet inside the storage unit. I can’t even really hear the wind blowing outside. Jenny’s found a saw. Nice. We took turns holding it, I was surprised that it’s heavier than it looks. There’s no table or anything in here but there’s like this shelf with all the tools we think they’re for hunting. And there’s this smell in here, but we don’t know what it is. Like it actually smells really bad if u smell it hard enough, it’s a little more faint in general but theres this corner of the storage unit where it smells really bad. It’s probably rotting wood or something? That’s what Jenny says. I don’t actually know what rotting wood smells like but I honestly don’t feel like wood can make that kinda smell u know? 

Jenny was giggling as she came out with scary theories about who the owner of this storage unit was. It’s honestly getting kinda cold in here, I think after the sun fully sets it’s gonna be even colder. Ugh where's Jeff. Ok, anyway, I mean it’s kind of cool in here but I’m a little bored now. We’re supposed to be down by the river if u remember from my last post and it’s honestly a bit of a walk from here too so. Sigh. We’re just waiting for the doors to open now. I think we’ve seen enough hahah. Come on Jefffff hurry upppp.

I know I’ve always been the more cautious one when I heard a subtle rustling of crunching leaves and I knew that someone was probably very close by. I’m hearing the crunching of leaves get louder outside so I told Jenny that Jeff was probably here and we got all excited. And there was a lot of grunting when the door was getting opened. Jenny and I giggled cuz we knew it was gonna take Jeff a little while to get the door open and we weren’t about to help him cuz it was funnier to see him struggling. But it opened a lot faster than we thought, honestly. It was like 10 seconds. So yeah, that didn’t last long and we were near the opposite side of the wall and Jenny and I kinda just stood there and waited for him to come in so we could show him all the cool and creepy stuff that was in here. I’ll update y’all on his reactions and stuff later.

It’s pretty windy today but my friends and I still wanted to go exploring near the river in the forest near us. So Jenny and I are in the forest right and it’s so pretty around here, the leaves are super crunchy under our boots and everything here is like yellow and orange and brown. And we’re pretty far into the forest. The river we want to get to is still quite a while away, but guess what, we come across this little wooden storage unit thing, it’s actually pretty small. It probably belongs to a person that does a lot of seasonal hunting or whatever. We didn’t know what to expect if we maybe took a quick look inside. Jenny went closer and she tried to fumble with the lock and I guess the person who owns this thing didn’t lock the door properly because Jenny yanked at the lock and it actually opened! 

And she unhooked the lock from the door, don’t make fun of us but like it actually took both of us like three minutes before we could pull the door open. Cuz there was all this leaf in front of the door and there were like branches that were lowkey blocking the door from opening up. But then anyway, we were finally able to open the door right and we went inside and it’s pretty dark inside. Jenny went in right away and I kinda didn’t want to? She called me a chicken and trust me, I’m not, ok? 

Like, it’s just a little rude to go somewhere where you know ur kind of not supposed. And like what if the person comes back and then they’re gonna get mad that we’re messing with their stuff. But ok, I rolled my eyes and I followed Jenny into the little wooden room thing. And like I said, it’s pretty dark in here so it was taking my eyes a bit to adjust to the darkness but like right as I could start seeing the stuff in the room, there was a really big gust of wind, and a bunch of leaves got blown into the room but also it slammed the door shut!! Like it was a really loud slam too, and Jenny and I immediately tried to go push it open but we couldn’t. But we didn’t freak out that much cuz Jeff is our friend, he was gonna come late so he’s supposed to meet us somewhere near here so Jenny just texted him to come faster so he can help us open the door. He’s kinda scrawny so good luck to him trying to get the door open when he gets here LOL.
