Order It

That night, Becky and Mindy worked at the kitchen table on their costumes. They had The Lion King soundtrack on in the background. It was so loud I could hardly think while I finished my homework. I had to come up with a topic for my research report. I went on the Internet and searched Halloween monsters.

I decided to do my project on werewolves, since I was pretty sure Mrs. Cliff was actually capable of becoming one. In the article I read, it said werewolves could paralyze young children simply by gazing at them. It also said they have curled nails and walk with a bit of a hunch. It was pretty clear to me that Mrs. Cliff was probably a werewolf.

I had just finished filling out my research report paper for Mrs. Cliff when Mom sat next to me.

“Why don’t we go online and order your costume?” she said.

“That’s a great idea,” I said, putting the paper back in my folder.

“It’s not too late to be Simba,” Becky reminded me.

“Hakuna matata,” Mindy said.

“I told you, I’m not going to be cute this year. I’m going to be a Clone Trooper.”

“Here it is,” Mom said, pointing to the screen.

“That’s not the one I want. I want the blue one with the real helmet. Dad said I could get it.” We clicked around a little more and soon discovered that most of the Clone Trooper costumes were kind of lame-looking. Finally we found one that looked awesome. “That’s it!” I said, excited.

“That looks great,” Mom said, “but I don’t recognize the company selling it. We should stick with a company we know so we don’t have any problems with it getting here on time.”

“Please, Mom! That’s the one. It looks like the ones right out of the movie! The other ones look like they’re made out of garbage bags.”

“I guess we can order it and return it if it’s not good quality. It does look a little too good to be true, though. The price is less than the ones that you don’t like.”

“It must be a sale. Come on, Mom. Please order it.”

“You’re sure you don’t want to be Simba?” Mom asked one last time.

“I absolutely don’t want to be Simba, and I think I’ve earned this costume after being what the girls wanted me to be all these years.”

“Okay,” she said. “Let’s just hope it’s good quality.”

“It will be,” I said. “This is going to be the best Halloween ever!”
