Hair
By Anthony Liefting
Did you know, just a few years ago, something strange happened to me, the story goes like this. I was 14 and there was my mum, Sarah who was 34. A few years ago we moved back to our old village in the North American forests. We lived inside a hollow tree. There was only my room and mum’s room, I wasn’t allowed in mum’s room. That was where she puts her evidence, as she says.
Everyday Sarah went looking for evidence. “What are you looking for? Can I have a look?” I often asked “no sweetheart, but trust me, you don’t want to know, you might scare yourself half to death”
One day Jordan woke up with a heavy feeling in his feet, then he looked down “aaaaaaahhhhhhhhh, muuuuuuuuuum!!!!!” mum came rushing to my bed “what” said mum “look at my feet!” yelled Jordan “stay here i’ll be home before dark” she yelled as she ran deeper into the forest.
A few minutes had passed since mum left and things started getting real ugly and real fast. Hair just started bursting out of my skin, I ran to the mirror and looked at myself. “Aaaaahhh,
whats happening to meeeee!!! Aaaahhh” then all of a sudden everything went black.
It was only a few hours later when I awoke. I looked at myself. “Aaaaaahhhhhh, i’m hairy!” I burst through the back door and stumbled deeper into the forest, I knew I wasn’t allowed to go deeper into the forest, but I had to find mum.
About twenty or so minutes later I spotted her. She was looking around trees. “Mum!” I
screamed. Sarah looked at me like who are you for a moment and then she yelled “get back to the house i’ll explain everything to you there”.
When we got back home mum explained everything, “so, your saying, by some mystery, Bigfoot blood runs in our family and your going to turn into one too?” said Jordan “yeh” said Sarah.
A few days later when Jordan turned completely into a Bigfoot he decided to live freely as a Bigfoot and mum said “when I turn into one i’ll come visit you” “OK” replied Jordan. So Jordan lived happily ever after.
