In-between the seconds

By Lisalou

Once upon a time...

a little girl named Goldilocks went into the forest to play.

Goldilocks came upon a cute cottage and went inside.

There on the kitchen table were three bowls of porridge.

Goldilocks was hungry so she took a bite from the large bowl of porridge, but it was too hot.

Then she tried the middle-size bowl, but it was too cold.

Then she tried the smallest bowl, and it was just right, so she ate it all up.

Goldilocks was tired, so she went to the bedroom where she found three beds.

Goldilocks tried the large bed, but it was too hard.

Then she tried the middle-size bed, but it was too soft.

Then she tried the smallest bed, and it was just right, so she fell fast asleep.

While she was sleeping, the three bears came home.

"Someone's been eating my porridge," said papa bear.

"Someone's been eating my porridge," said mama bear.

"Someone's been eating my porridge, and they ate it all up," cried baby bear.

"Someone's been sleeping in my bed," said papa bear.

"Someone's been sleeping in my bed," said mama bear.

"Someone's been sleeping in my bed, and here she is," said baby bear.

Goldilocks was so frightened that she jumped out of bed, ran out of the cottage and never came back again.

The end.
