I once had a child -SN2022- non-writer

For the 5th time that week I found my little boy standing in front of the build-in wardrobe staring inside while mumbling “sometimes there's a secret hatch”. For the hundred time I explained to him that there never was a hatch, it's just cloths inside.
That evening I heard him screaming and ran upstairs. His cries were coming from inside the wardrobe. I quickly opened the doors, but all I saw was a faint impression of a hatch in the back wall! I reached out my hand, but before I could touch it, it completely vanished before my eyes.

The End

Hmm, I might avoid looking in my dark wardrobe for a while.

Thanks for your submission,

OMG, that's totally nightmarish, KindraLabelle2!

Large, deep wardrobes have always given me the creeps... your story confirms my worst fears.

Will the hatch ever reappear? And if so will she go in after him?

Nicely done! I enjoyed the read.

Like the title says: "I once had a child".... and that was a very long time ago. But who knows, maybe one day...

Ok, what about Tumnus, the half goat guy?

a reply to: Encia22

I must honestly say that I've never seen Narnia completely from beginning to end, only bits and pieces when my kid was watching
