I was with great-gramma. br We weren’t walking fast at all, br so something scary found us br when we shuffled down the hall. br br Every time she took a step, br I heard a spooky sound. br When we stopped I couldn’t hear it. br It was quiet all around. br br I looked to our left, br and then I looked to our right, br but we were all alone, br not a monster was in sight. br br Maybe it was gone now br so I guess it’s safe to go. br (I wish she would go faster br Great-gramma walks SO slow!) br br I told great-gramma we should run br ‘cause the monster could come back. br Great-gramma said that she’s too old br and running hurts her back. br br So we started walking slow again. br Sure enough, the sounds were back! br With every step great-gramma took br I could hear the thing attack! br br And then I started giggling … br Hey, I know what’s chasing us! br Great-gramma don’t walk faster br It’s barking spiders with hiccups!br br C.J.
