Act 1
“Mommy tell me the bedtime story about you and daddy...please” the little girl rubs her worn eyes.
“Once upon a time.....”
“....And they lived happily ever after.”
The little girl is fast asleep.
The door inches open, “How many times have you told her that story?”
Her robe sweeps the floor he carries her to their bedroom. “Can you recite that one part for me?” Her eyes disappear into her head leaving the white showing. He lets out a giggle nibbling her side.
“O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?” They both share a laugh.
Into the Castle.
I leaned to plant a kiss on the sleeping beauty’s cheek-
‘‘Ahem.’’
The being shook its head and walked out from the shadows. This being looked just like sleeping beauty.
‘‘Whoa!’’
She told me that her sister had fallen sick. The only way she thought to save her was to place her under a spell.
This was not something I’d want as a solution. The awake sister squinted her eyes and blew something toward my face. I coughed and tumbled to the floor.
She had no skin, or any flesh. Her body was only made of bones.
