uncovering the truth

scary night

All I can hear is Ralph talking to himself, as I only have one eye open and one eye closed. I can hear foot steps coming up the stairs is it just my mum " it cant be my mum its 1:30 in the morning she's obviously still not awake" I mumbled to myself. As I told Ralph to be quiet I heard foot steps getting closer and closer to my door but suddenly they just stopped and so did Ralph.

I went straight under my doona , I was so scared I looked in Ralph's cage and he wasn't there. " Come on Caitlin come on it's only a dream and I can wake up now". I pinched myself really hard and usually that works but this time it didn't , " Hold on that means that, no I have to be in a dream, but I'm not waking up". I can't believe it...it's not a dream. I didn't know if I should go and look for Ralph or if I should just stayed wrapped up in my doona . I am starting to hear the foot steps again, what should I do. I grabbed my phone from my desk drawer before the foot steps got any closer. The door knob was starting to twist, I tried turning on my phone but it was out of charge. The door knob stopped turning, I heard the phone ring down stairs I needed to go down and answer it, but how?

When I opened the window I threw my giant teddy bear outside onto the grass as quickly as I could and quietly ran into my cupboard. I couldn't hear the footsteps or the phone anymore and suddenly I heard whispering but I couldn't hear much from it, this is all that I heard " she, out the window, let's go!" I heard the door knob twist, I know you're probably wondering why I don't just call out to my mum, well then they will know where I am and who knows what will happen to me and Suddenly everything stopped.
