Every night, my sister would shower, enter our grandfather’s bedroom with his hair still wet and lock the door. One night I followed her… and what I heard inside made me look for my phone right away…
I first noticed it about three weeks ago.
Every night, around ten, my sister Emily would shower. Then, with wet hair wrapped in a towel, he walked down the hallway and entered the bedroom from our grandfather.

They always closed the door with key from the inside.

At first I didn’t pay too much attention. Our grandfather George was seventy-eight years old and had suffered several health problems over the past few months. I figured Emily helped him organize his medication or clean his room.
But soon everything began to seem stranger.
Sometimes, Emily stayed twenty minutes in Grandpa’s room. Other times he stayed there for almost an hour. When he came out, his face was tense and sometimes his hands trembled. The next morning, Grandpa barely talked to anyone.
One night I finally asked him:
Why do you always walk into Grandpa’s bedroom after showering?
Suddenly, he stood still.
I’m just helping him.
“With what?”

That’s none of your business, Sarah.
Emily had never spoken to me like that.
