The Cement Statue

“Mum, what is that cement statue for?” I ask.

“I don’t know” replied Mum “it’s probably some war memorial thing.”

“Oh, okay.” I said suspiciously

I forget about the statue and continue walking on the stone path. But I can’t help thinking that something is bothering me, so I look back at the statue. But the statue isn’t there.

“Mum! The cement statue! It isn’t there!” I yell.

“Oh, don’t be silly Tom! The statue is right over th-” Says Mum feeling shocked. “Where did it go?”

I blink. The statue appears again. I blink again. The statue is gone…
