Bang. I hear a loud noise outside, I slowly walk to the back door as I hear the floor boards creaking…. As I’m about to turn the handle, I feel a cold breeze behind me. I slowly turn my head so see the scary monster when it was my little baby sister I say, ” Why are you here Courtney? Go to bed”
“Yes Mat,” she replies with her squeaky little voice. As my hand slowly touch the cold door handle I hear a baby crying in the back yard…….. I take a little look to see what it is but there’s nothing there. I say to myself “Oh no, no, no, no.” I ran as fast as I could. I opened my mum's door but she was not there. I say This can’t be happening………
