Ghost Story

Tom is ten years old . He lives in a big , old house with his family . The house has many rooms .

One night , Tom is in his bed . It is 10:00 PM. The house is very quiet . Tom closes his eyes .

Suddenly , he hears a sound . Creak . Creak .

Tom opens his eyes . "Is that my cat ?" he thinks . He has a black cat named Luna.

He gets up and opens his door . The hallway is dark . He sees a light in the kitchen downstairs .

Tom walks slowly . He is a little scared . He walks down the stairs . One , two , three steps .

He looks into the kitchen . The fridge door is open ! A white figure is standing there . It is eating a sandwich .

Tom wants to scream . "A ghost !" he thinks .

The figure turns around . It has white hair and a white face .

" Hello , Tom," the ghost says .

Tom stops . He knows that voice .

" Grandma ?" Tom asks .

The figure laughs . " Yes , Tom. I am hungry . I wanted a midnight snack . But I put my face cream on. Do I look like a ghost ?"

Tom laughs too . " Yes , Grandma . You are a very hungry ghost ."

They eat the sandwich together . The house is not scary anymore .
