Something Moved in the Cupboard October 17, 2008

“Something moved in the cupboard.” What could it possibly be? Brook moved closer and closer, when she saw the cupboard doors move she screamed. There was her father running down the stairs as fast has he could and into the kitchen where he had heard her scream. Her father decided to open the cupboard and check when he quickly pulled on the cupboard doors he saw absolutely nothing so he took out everything from the cupboard.

Once everything was out of the cupboard they both heard the front door open and in came Brook’s mother straight from the grocery store. Victoria, Brook’s mom was a real clean freak and if she found out that there was something in her kitchen cupboard she would go crazy and they both knew she wouldn’t appreciate that or the mess they had made. When Victoria walked in the kitchen the first thing that clicked to her mind was mess a gigantic mess and it was coming out of her kitchen cupboard, so she dropped the grocery’s on the floor and screamed “what’s going on?” Brook knew that she couldn’t tell her mom so she said, “Oh I was just looking for the cheese crackers, and I couldn’t find them so dad was helping me.” “Well your dad is a great help isn’t he, you didn’t find the crackers since they are finished, and you two mad a huge mess that I’m not cleaning up.” And she walked away.

Later that day when her mother Victoria went out to get them dinner Brook heard something in the kitchen. As she got up from the couch she slowly walked to the kitchen when she got there she saw the cupboard door moving again, but this time it was a different cupboard. When she opened the cupboard door she saw the peanut butter jar open and peanut butter all over the cupboard, the strawberry jam was in a glass jar so the jar was broken and the jam was leaking. Then she saw a long pink tail sticking out of the peanut butter jar, that very second something jumped out there was a long pause and a loud scream.

It was a mouse once again there was her father running down the stairs and into the kitchen and there was the mouse. A little bit later Brook’s mother opened the door with dinner and they were all in the same position as they were earlier. The only difference was that this time Brook didn’t have to make up an excuse because this time the mouse decided be smart and it ran right out the door and the problem was finally over. However, only Brook and her father knew what happened to their house after her mother found out it was a mouse.
