GRANNY SMITH

She said the apple was
named after her.
In return for humongous slabs of apple pie, we
children kept her orchard tidy. The rest of the garden was
out-of-bounds.
She warned us about the
falling-down shed.
'It's dangerous.' Her roly-poly smile vanished.
'Don't let me catch you in there.'
When rumours started
about the falling-down shed I began to notice other oddities, like
how Granny Smith licked children's grazed knees before applying
antiseptic.
I got curious.
While she was busy
making pies I crept into the falling-down shed. Behind the bath were
bundles of curious children's bones.
A footfall sounded.
I hope you enjoyed my story and look forward to reading your comments.
