Bewilderment

THIS STORY IS WRITTEN BY AN 11 YEAR OLD! (not lying) I HAVE WRITTEN
FOR youngabctales.com TOO.

I didn't know what was happening, Sophie was under some sort of spell
by Eliza, It would be so cool if Eliza was a witch! I thought. But she
could be evil like Voldemort. I hung around with Wendy &; Mary, they
wouldn't betray me. It wasn't fair, Sophie and I have been best friends
since we were in nursery! And now that idiot had come and ruined
everything. I hated her, I HATED HER, I HATED HER! "Hannah, I want to
speak to you," Eliza said to me. "What is it?" I said, like I didn't
have a care in the world about what Eliza was going to say, though I
still listened carefully. "Not here, in&;#8230;private" She
whispered, I waited, I didn't want to walk of with a strange stranger,
but then I saw Sophie signalling to me that I should go. I trusted
Sophie. I walked silently with Eliza, to the toilets, because they were
so smelly, NO ONE went in them. "This is something shocking and
disturbing&;#8230;" Eliza said dramatically I imagined what it could
be, maybe she was an alien from planet Zog, or actually a man, I
started giggling at that thought. She was impossible to imagine as a
man. "Don't laugh!" She looked hurt. I sucked my cheeks in "I
am&;#8230;a-" Just then the school bell rang. "OH NO!!! I missed the
Book Club thanks to you! Thanks A LOT ELIZABETH!!" I shouted. And ran
of in a fury. Sophie came up to me and said "Eliza told you yeah,
GREAT! Now you know she's a witch!" My mouth hanged open, What was she
playing at? "Eliza&;#8230;Is a witch?" I asked uncertainly, "Of
course she is! And so am I and you!" I blinked at her several times,
what was she playing at? "You what? Didn't you know?" I shook my head
vigorously at her "Oops! I just gave Eliza's deepest darkest secret
away to you. I must erase your memory!" She muttered away to
herself.

I don't think that spell had much of an effect on me. I still remember.
But one thing is stuck in my mind. I'm a witch?? This didn't seem real.
A dream. It couldn't have been real, I thought I tried doing a spell
"Hocus Pocus, fluffy blue fish Make it true, a wish" It didn't work. I
lay down and listened to "Sambucca by Wide Boys" It was my favourite
song. My mind started calming down. I was at ease, but then I got a
phone call. I put the CD player on pause and picked the phone up
"Hallo?" I asked "Hi Han, how are you?" I recognised it, it was Eliza!!
"Eliza, what were you trying to tell me today?" I asked "Hannah, do you
know your full name?" She asked. I thought that was a stupid question!
"Hannah T Brand" I said "Do you know what the "T" stands for?" she
asked. "Thelma" I said disgustedly. "Thelma is a witch name. The
Brands' were evil. Hannah is an alright name but the rest isn't. You
are a witch. Sophie is one too. And so am I" She finished. I coughed
"freak" and slammed the phone down.
