Mina and The Cupboard
Chapter 1
There was no light in the cupboard. I couldn’t see anything except for my blue bear with its bold, bright colour almost glowing blue rays around. My dad bought it for my 6th birthday and I named her Bluey. I had been sitting in the cupboard counting stars since the air raid siren had gone off. “One hundred and twenty stars one hundred and twenty…” and there was the flat white siren. I could not hear the roaring sound of the aeroplanes anymore. All of a sudden, there was a silence like waking up from a bad dream and realising that it was all just a nightmare. We all have nightmares, right? Some are loud like a blast; some are low like a hiss! But, some come back every day with a revenge, just like mine....
