I was with my parents, skipping down the hallway in Target. Wearing a green shirt, blue jeans, two straps connected to the jeans wrapped around my shoulders. I skipped along the cement floor, heading towards a huge shelf. It held books of all kind, fantasy, horror. I LOVED horror. It was my favorite. I reached out and grabbed a red covered book. I pulled it out of the shelf and studied the cover of it.

It sounded like a good book, I ran back to my parents. Who were at a Check-out Station, I grabbed the end of my Father's shirt. And tugged on it "Daddy, Can I get this book?" My Father turned his head toward me, looking down. He studied the book for a moment then nodded "Of course, Sweetie. Put it on the counter so the nice woman can check it out for you."

I set the book on the counter, waiting for the woman to scan it. It took awhile, but she did it. I grabbed the plastic bag with my book in it and walked out of the store holding my Mother's hand.

I sat on my bed, reading the new book I got. I was waiting got my parents to finish making dinner. My stomach rumbled hungrily. I sighed impatiently, then shouted "Is dinner ready yet!?"

No answer

I got up, then ran toward the door. But I was stopped, when the door magically closed by itself in front of me. I jumped back scared. Then muttered "Huh..? What the...?" I lift my hand, and move it toward the knob. I feel the muscles in my hand begin to tense up, shaking in fear. I grab hold of the door. And opens it.
