The Good Girl Katie had always been a good girl. She never complained, not even when she fell over or when kids pulled her hair. She was quiet and did what she was told. Every day, she went for a walk to the park with her Mommy. But lately, strange things were happening. Tommy Durham would run down the slide and fall face first on the concrete below. His mother would run to him and hold a tissue to his nose. But the blood always poured down his face and onto his coat. This always scared Katie and she would start to cry. Next, an ice cream truck would drive past the playground and its jingle would get stuck at the same point in the song. Its shrill tone was deafening. Finally, Millie Monahan’s mom would slip and fall into the pond, sending the ducks into a frenzy. One day, as if by clockwork, the events happened again. Except this time, Tommy Durham fell onto a sharp stone and blood poured from his head. Katie smelled a strange new smell. Next, the ice cream truck lost control and mounted the pavement, crushing Susie Griffin. Then, Millie Monahan’s mom fell into the pond, only this time the ducks raced towards her and pecked at her face rather than flying away. Katie had enough. She had to escape this nightmare. Her Mommy grabbed her hair as she was trying to flee but Katie had taken a kitchen knife with her that morning. It was the first time she had thought of that. She stabbed her mommy until she let go. Katie blinked her plastic eyelids for the first time in sunlight and saw clumps of her synthetic hair twisted around the little girl’s bloody lifeless hand.
