They Didn’t Believe Me

I hear his stomach growling so loudly it hurts my ears.

I run into my Mommy's and Daddy's room and tell them about the monster under my bed. "Go back to sleep, they mumble, "it was just a nightmare."

Now I am very mad. I look under my bed and see his glowing eyes.

"You sound very hungry," I say. "Go into Mommy's and Daddy's room and they will feed you.

So the monster does and they feed him.

"You were delicious," I hear him to say to my parents as he smacks his lips.

That's what they get for not believing me!
