The Ghost of Oak
“" Why can't you let me try to make something for our dinner tonight?" Her mother grumbled. " Katie," she began. " I told you already that you are to young to cook by yourself. However, if you don't keep on pestering, you can help me out with dinner, later." The young girl pouted childishly. Unfortunately for Katie, she inadvertently continued to annoy her mother, and therefore could not assist in the kitchen.
After being told to go up to her room, while Mrs. Smith did the cooking, Katie stomp...ed upstairs angrily.
When she reached the doorway, she stopped dead in her tracks. For there, sitting atop the bed, with its lemon-yellow comforter, was the strange elderly woman who Katie had many times seen and feared. In her left hand, she grasped the locket with the odd little eagle symbol that she had found on the sidewalk on her way home from the last day of fourth grade, just a few weeks after her tenth birthday. Katie was so frightened, that she was sure she turned whiter than the ghost herself.MoreLess
