Our little secret

I heard a sound. Someone was cring. “Katie” I said. I went down the ladder of my bunk bed “Katie. Katie are you alright.’’ I said as I shook her. “Jessy I had a nightmare. It was about mom.” I am scared.” She whimpered. “Let’s shut the door so we don’t wake Matt.” Matt was a the door.
“Jessy I want Daddy, but he’s not in his room.” he said. “Are you sure?” I said. “Yes. He’s not in there.” I started to paniac. “Maybe he got drunk and left.” Katie cried. “Doubt it.” I insissted. “What’s drunk?” Matt asked” I ignored him and I think Katie read my emotion because she didn’t say anything either. We were scared. It’s gonna be our little secret.
