I’M GONNA GET YOU!
Once there was a young girl named Sara.
Sara had never been afraid of the dark until one night as she lay down to
go to sleep she heard a little voice say, “Sara, I’m at
your front door…” The next morning Sara told her mother about
the little voice. “Don’t be silly, Sara!” her mother said. Sara thought
about that voice a little bit that day at school. That night Sara climbed
the 10 steps to her bedroom. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she
heard that little voice, “Sara, I’m at the foot of the
steps…” The next morning Sara could hardly eat breakfast. Her
mother said, “You’re just hearing things!” At school that day, Sara
thought about the voice a little more. At bedtime Sara was nervous, but
she went to bed, covered her head, then she heard it...that little
voice...it said, “Sara, I’m on the first step…”
Night after night Sara heard that horrid voice…”Sara,
I’m on the second step...the third...the fourth….the fifth step…”
until one night the little voice said, “Sara, I’m at
your bedroom door…” By now Sara couldn’t eat breakfast or
lunch. She was afraid to go to her bedroom, but her mother said, “Go!”
Sara tip-toed into her bed hoping the voice wouldn’t hear her, but it did.
It said, “Sara, I’m in your bedroom…” The
next day, Sara couldn’t eat breakfast, lunch or supper. She thought about
that awful voice all day at school and didn’t even do her work. That night
she begged her mother to let her sleep on the couch. Her mother said,
“Absolutely not, young lady!” Sara ran to her room, jumped in the bed,
covered her head, and grabbed her pillow. Just as her breathing slowed
down, she heard the little voice, “Sara, I’m standing
next to your bed…” The next day Sara was so scared she felt
sick. She stayed home from school. She couldn’t eat. She just thought
about that voice. That night her mother tucked her in and kissed her
goodnight. Sara thought maybe the voice wouldn’t come tonight, but it did,
it said…”Sara... …...I’VE GOT
YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!” |
