It was a gloomy day as it was raining on and off. I always play with my friends in the playground in front of our house after coming from school, but that day no one was coming. I was in the swing by myself.
“Can I play with you?” Asked a boy. He was around my age; he was dressed in all black; he looked really pale, as if there was no blood in his body.
“Yes, sure I am Alex, what's your name?” I asked
I am Liam
Liam was a little weird, but I enjoyed playing with him.What are you wearing, he asked, pointing to my chain.
It is an emulate; it keeps bad spirits away from me.
He he he really
I don't know. My grandmother told me never to take it off or else bad spirits would do harm.
You are afraid of spirits dummy. You were such a coward, he he he.
I am not a coward
So take it off
I can't, I promise my grandma
Coward coward Alex is a coward
It took the amulet off and showed it to him “look, I took it off. I am not a coward”
Wow, you actually took it off, you are really brave.
I didn't want to play anymore; he was a really rude boy.
It's late, I should be going now, I said
Okay Alex take care
