Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, As it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, The power, and the glory, Forever and ever. Amen.

“THE STATUE”

Peace River Shopper

Chapter 18 by Bumpy Thermos Dad shuts his book and looks at us. That’s it? Says my sister. Yes, dad says. You don’t like the ending? Well, I didn’t think it would turn out that way. I was sure that Bruce and Henry would stay friends and Bruce would have a family, says my sister. I did think about that, but in real time the gargoyle would out live the humans by about 10 times or so. Humans just can’t live with gargoyles. It just wouldn’t happen. They live out in the woods and are always playing tricks on the humans. Do you think gargoyles are real dad? Asked my sister. Of course I do, he says. With time we tried to forget about the gargoyle story and about something moving down in basement that night. But, life went on for us. There were so many stories to remember anyway. A few weeks later when all was forgotten, my mom needed some computer work. She called Steve’s house and tried to get him but had to leave a message. Another day went by and still no Steve. So my mom asked dad if he would go over and check on him. They were pretty good friends. When we heard it was Steve, the computer guy, we were not going to let dad go by himself, so we both got in the car with dad and went over to Steve’s house. No one answered the door so dad went around to the back to look in the window to make sure he was ok. We were sure that something had happened to Steve and we were sure it was that statue of the gargoyle. When dad came walking back from around the house he had a strange look on his face. Dad what’s wrong, we asked. Oh nothing dad said. He is not here. There is no sign of him. He left the back door open and he is gone. OK, now what? My sister and I both at the same time ask, was the statue in there? I didn’t think to look he said. Well lets go back and look, we said. Before he could say no, we jumped out and ran around the back of the house and went through the open back door. We looked in every room and every closet, looking for that statue. We didn’t even think about looking for Steve. The gargoyle statue was what we wanted to see, but there was no sign of the statue, nothing. We were so sure the gargoyle had flown off with him, that’s what it had to be. What else could it be? None of us have seen Steve since. As far as we know, no one has reported him even missing. But for my sister and I, we know what happened. Weeks have gone by now and dad began writing another story. He is always trying to be more scary with the next one. Up until now, the scariest has been the statue story. Maybe it was because he brought home a statue and we were more involved this time, but it was the scariest. Then one morning dad walks in for breakfast and asked if anyone had heard of that boy born at 12 months instead of 9 months? They call him puppet boy, something to do with his head. Why dad? My sister asked. Well dad says, I just saw him yesterday at the cleaners. He looked just like a big baby doll with the largest blue eyes. It made me start thinking that my next story should be about a little boy, a little boy that never grew up. A little boy that was born a little different. One that turned out to be a monster. I will call him “Puppet Boy”… The End!
