Oh no.
I couldn’t find the ring! My lucky charm that was supposed to keep me safe!995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKkvVbEvPW
My favourite TV show was The Truth about Magic. All other shows about magic were fake. Everything in The Truth about Magic was real. The show said so. 995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeknY3aRyY
Mum bought me the ring for my 6th birthday, because I’d begged her so so much. The show said that without the ring, bad things happened to you.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnkneGSr1W
I knew it worked because Billy broke his arm at the jungle gym when he wasn’t wearing the ring. I’d never broken an arm before. And I also knew it worked because I hadn't seen a spider since my 6th birthday. I was petrified of spiders. I got bitten by one when I was five, back when I didn’t have a ring. 995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAQab20QDd
And I couldn’t find it. I’d searched everywhere.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqZ3VClzNV
I slumped down into my pink office chair. I started to cry. I’ll be killed tonight, because I’m not wearing a ring!995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM7CmOSAeP
I heard a quiet noise behind me. 995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2SPRhSvHF
I started crying more. A bad stranger just appeared in my room. He was going to kill me.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYs2JzvuFTi
The show said that if you heard a noise behind you, someone was there. The show also said that if there’s someone behind you, you weren’t allowed to turn around and make eye contact with them. If you didn’t turn around for five minutes, they’d disappear.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmCGOm2a7A
I was facing a wall, staring at a The Truth about Magic poster. I didn’t have a clock, so I started to count to 50. There were 50 seconds in a minute.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AHFHZWPtb
That’s the last 50. I was really scared because maybe I counted too fast. But I really wanted the bad stranger to disappear.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoPhULW00Y
I slowly turned around in my chair. Disappear. Disappear.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDgLP7rd3x
I screamed.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpZGc6q9Ll
The spider didn’t disappear.
