Then, I heard a gruff voice asked “Who’s there?” I looked up and saw two tall men in dark coat standing in my bedroom. Each wore a dark mask and a hat. Then I saw my babysitter sitting on a chair with my baby, screaming “HELP!!!!!”
I stammered “Ple......Please don’t kill......kill me.” A man with a pistol said “You’d better give me all your money, or it will be time for you, and your baby, and your babysitter to say goodbye to the world!” What could I do? I took out my purse and handed in all my money. “Don’t ha......harm us......” The robbers grinned, and then they bursted into laughter. So did the babysitter! How strange!
The two men took off their masks and cheered “Happy April Fools!” It was my brother and my husband! I was stunned. “But......Why......Wh......” “I bet you forget what today is, Jane.”
So it was just an awful joke! Then, my brother said “I’ll take the money away since you’ve given it to me.” “But......” “Two thousand dollars! That’s a lot!” And they laughed.
“No, that’s mine!” I was fuming. Then......
My alarm clock rang. I looked around. Where were they? My husband was snoring loudly in the other room. Well, though it’s annoying, I’m glad it’s only a dream.
