Excerpt
“Did
the cat get your tongue? Or was it the Boogieman?” Jayla and her small group of
cheerleaders laughed.
“The
Boogieman doesn’t take children’s tongues. He prefers to scare you, so he can
feed on your fear.” Phoebe put her hands on her hips. Jayla’s crap was old and
Phoebe was so sick of it and the other stuff she had put up with lately. “Now,
the Boogiewoman, that’s a different story. She just absolutely loves the
tongues of mean bullies.”
“Boogiewoman?”
asked one of the cheerleaders with Jayla.
“Phoebe,
let’s go.” Madison
tugged on Phoebe’s sleeve.
“You
can’t leave. Phoebe was just telling me about the Boogiewoman, and I just have
to hear more. This story is so entertaining.” Jayla laughed.
“Phoebe?”
Madison’s voice
no more than a squeak.
“Madison, I have to stand
up to her. I can’t run away. Not anymore.” Phoebe swallowed but the lump of
fear stayed firmly stuck in place. Even though she was afraid, she knew she had
to stand up. She had done it once before. How was this any different?
