Oh no.
I couldn’t find the ring! My lucky charm that was supposed to keep me safe!1055Please respect copyright.PENANAGJWawryVcf
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. 1055Please respect copyright.PENANAmw9Wy6JQQt
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.1055Please respect copyright.PENANAW2sj6cp2jg
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. 1055Please respect copyright.PENANAgK8WSL7i3n
And I couldn’t find it. I’d searched everywhere.1055Please respect copyright.PENANABY4G904OEZ
I slumped down into my pink office chair. I started to cry. I’ll be killed tonight, because I’m not wearing a ring!1055Please respect copyright.PENANAJfUEA5snyz
I heard a quiet noise behind me. 1055Please respect copyright.PENANAVmgVnar5MM
I started crying more. A bad stranger just appeared in my room. He was going to kill me.1055Please respect copyright.PENANALCfKUi5t6O
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.1055Please respect copyright.PENANAFiuEk8JZ7b
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.1055Please respect copyright.PENANAM8c6tHfUDE
That’s the last 50. I was really scared because maybe I counted too fast. But I really wanted the bad stranger to disappear.1055Please respect copyright.PENANAOhz3VKnSKO
I slowly turned around in my chair. Disappear. Disappear.1055Please respect copyright.PENANAfmn0rOWPoC
I screamed.1055Please respect copyright.PENANAocE8f2oS2x
The spider didn’t disappear.
