The Haunted Ceiling

One day on a Saturday morning, my parents decided to go to town. So, they left. When they left, suddenly, a strange noise came through my ceiling. I was confused at first, but I thought nothing about it. But that noise was steady. It kept making noise over and over again. I got scared. Was it a demon, just waiting, ready to strike at the right moment?

My first instinct was to freeze. Yeah. Get frozen in place and not move anywhere. The noise got so loud that I jumped up so much. That freaked-out jumping made a huge amount of noise. I froze. Could the demon have heard me?!

Suddenly, the noise started to get closer slowly. I tried to run, but my body froze me in place. Suddenly, it asked, startled, “Who is down there?”

Suddenly, my body eased out a bit. Then, even though I was scared at first, slowly, I got confidence and shouted out, “I’m the one who made a lot of noise. If you’re a demon, please don’t eat me. I’m just an innocent little child. But if you’re something else, then I’m sorry for the disturbance. Whatever you do, please just don’t harm me.” ---

--- Then, laughter echoed through and asked in a silly tone, “Me? A demon!? You’re kidding, right? Ahh… I guess you really thought that I’m a demon.”

I asked, “Why not?” Then, the “unidentified entity” came out of the ceiling. It turned out that there was a raccoon who had lived in our house since we bought the house. I asked the raccoon for more details about what he thought about the house. Then, I asked more details about what he felt about the house.

Then, he said, “I thought that the house was abandoned. So, I started the perfect life here. Every day, I stole food from the refrigerator at night because the snacks in the refrigerator are so tasty! Now that I know that someone lives in the house, I could finally have a new best friend.”

I was touched by his feelings about the house. So, when my parents arrived, they were first shocked about my new friend. But after telling his story to my parents, they also felt heartened by his story. Then, we decided to adopt him and give him a name, and his name was “Freddy.”

We saw his amazing skills to talk and do all sorts of funny things. Then, with an entertaining pet, we lived happily ever after.
