That Little Girl

I originally posted this to my Wattpad, but I've decided to post it here as well. To see the story on its original post, look up just_some_slipknot on Wattpad.

Child-like wonder filled her eyes when she saw her reflection in the elevator door. Her big, beautiful eyes showed her joy- you didn't even have to see her smile to know that.
Later that night, I though to myself, "I can't wait to have my own kids. I want to raise someone to be great. I want to see them grow up. Plus, babies are just so cute!"
That night, I woke up from my sleep at 3:23. "S**t," I thought, "I have to get up at 6:30, that's early enough. Why now and not like, 6:00 or something?!" Then, my eyes happened to turn to the other end of my bed, in front of my bookshelf. I saw the girl, the one from the mall. She was looking up at the ceiling, even though there was nothing off about it. She was just floating there, not moving. I fell back asleep in about 5 minutes so I didn't lose any more sleep than I already did.
The next day after school, I turned on the news for background noise as I did homework. I happened to actually listen to it when it said "1 year old girl found dead on first floor at White Marsh Mall in Baltimore."

Extremely effective for such sparing use of words. Keep up the good work!
