33 - Bedtime Story

Once upon a bedtime there was a small person living in a big house. When mummy wanted him to be fast asleep, he was often slow awake. And when he was slow awake, he listened …
… and sometimes …
… he heard things …
…. and some of the things small person heard puzzled him.
“John, put the cat out!” he heard his mummy call.
Why did daddy have to put Benji out? Did something need protecting from Benji?
Or … did Benji need protecting from … something?
Small person pulled the sheets up over his head, and fell asleep.
Slowly.
