Saturday night they heard curious sounds coming from their daughter’s bedroom upstairs.
They went to check on her.
She was fast asleep. They shrugged and returned to bed.
The moment they closed the door she opened her eyes.
‘You can come out now,’ she whispered.
The wardrobe door slowly opened.

Nice and sneaky! Short, sweet, and to the point as always.
If I hear noises up stairs I will be sure to check the closet amongst other places…even if one seems to be fast asleep. I like this, give you something to ponder.

This is a ice write-up and straight to the point. The short story passed the needed message.
