uncovering the truth

I am seeing a lot of strange things lately, things that I can't explain and if I had to explain what I'm seeing, I would say I'm losing my mind. It all started when I walked into the kitchen to get my usal, four slices of toast for breakfast and I saw something move, on its own. I ran upstairs in shock I didnt know how to tell my mum or even if I should tell my mum, but My mum came into my room anyway and asked "Caitlin whats wrong? its six o clock on a Sunday morning, why are you running up the stairs at this time" there was no answer from me all that came out of me was "I....I saw something move on..on its own in the...the kitchen"so my mum went to see what it was, meanwhile I was thinking about what I saw.

I went to go talk to Ralph my pet parrot, I discovered he was mising, I was so scared I don"t know how he got out or even where he is because all the doors and windows are closed so he couldn't of escaped, suddenly I heard my mum call to me "Caitlin it wasnt moving on its own it was just Ralph .....ok, can I go back to sleep now".

"okay thanks mum and yes you can go back to sleep".

As I grabed Ralph all I could think about was how Ralph got out of his cage because I always lock it at night and keep the key in a really hidden place so secret that even sometimes I forget where I put it, im really sorry that I can't tell you where it is, its nothing personal I just don't want you finding my house then coming into my bedroom and setting Ralph free when i'm not looking.

I looked to see if the key was still in the same place that I hid it and luckily it was. I walked slowly down stairs so my mum wouldn't hear me so she doesn't wake up in a grump.........again, just don't tell her that I said that. I made sure all the doors and windows were closed. As I walked up the stairs slowly......again, I locked Ralph in his cage and pretended I was asleep to see if he got out on his own or if he doesn't come out of his cage then somebody came into my room and let him out on purpose. 'Oh no' Ralph didn't come out of his cage so he doesn't know how to get out of his cage, well unless he knows that i'm just faking to be asleep, or did you tell him that I was pretending to be asleep.

I saw something shiny and sparkly in the corner of my eye and it looked exactly like my lock that I put on Ralph's cage at night. I walked over to it to see what it was and "oh my gosh" it's Ralph's lock, how did that happen?
