I heard a whisper

It was a beautiful day, the bird was singing and the tree was blowing and  a the dog was also barking but on the way to school i heard a whisper.


It said to look back and when i looked back but there was no one there so i heard the whisper again and again and again and  when i arrived at school it stopped. When i got there it was quiet and i was all alone.
Then for nine more minutes the bell rang and i went to class and i opened the door and when i looked back then suddenly the door closed on it's own. The door handle went up,down,up,down and then it stopped and it i was quiet for 5 sec then i was so terrified that i was shaking like a life.


Then i heard the whisper again then i following the sound then it lead past room 10 and  it end at room 12 i look through the window and then i saw someone in there then i open the door and i was so nervous and also i was afraid and inside there i saw 5 little rat and a mother rat and a dad rat.Then i heard the dad rat said to it’s son go go and do not come back then i said no i just want you to stop please yes we will but we need a home i will take you all to my home.


Conclusion to be safe and to look after and always walk to school with an adult or if they don’t come then walk with brother or sister.
