The old well
She had been told never to go near the old well after dark.
Her grandmother had been very clear about that.
But nobody had told her what to do if the well called her name.
She woke shortly after midnight, her doll tucked beneath her arm, to the sound of a little girl whispering outside her bedroom window.
“Come find me.”
Barefoot and still in her nightdress, she took the lantern from the hallway and followed the voice across the mist-covered field.
It led her to the abandoned well.
She raised the lantern and peered into the darkness.
“Hello?”
For several seconds, there was nothing.
Then a child’s voice floated upward.
“You found me.”
She hugged her doll tighter.
“Who are you?”
A giggle echoed from somewhere far below.
Then the doll in her arms slowly turned its head toward the well.
And whispered—
“My sister.”
