The Girl in the Photograph
A boy was walking home from school one day. He was walking along the side of a road when all of a sudden a photo flutters in front of him. He picks it up and is automatically enchanted. In the photograph is a beautiful girl about the same age. She was holding up her hand in a cute little peace sign. He walked the rest of the way home staring at the photo, smiling to himself.
He tells all his friends about the girl in the photograph. They all begin to tease him and refuse to believe him, but no matter what, he doesn't let anyone else see the photograph. He becomes completely obsessed. He starts to skip meals to stare at the girl and even goes so far as to ditch classes to look for her. Eventually, he starts to see her. Sometimes he'll be walking home and he'll see her turn a corner, or he'll be at school and he'll see her walk down a hall. His yearning for her only worsens.
One night, he's sleeping in his bed when he jolts awake because he feels like someone's watching him. Sure enough, when he wakes up, there's the girl. She's standing right at the edge of his bed. She smiles that beautiful smile at him.
"Do you want to stay with me forever?" She asks. The boy nods.
"More than anything in the world," he says. She smiles again. She slowly reaches towards him and puts one of her hands over his mouth. Her features begin to distort and her limbs begin to grow. Before he knows it, she turns into a horrific monster and kills him. His mother finds him the next morning dead. Nobody knew what happened to him.
A few days later, another boy is walking home from school. As he's turning the corner, a picture flutters into the path in front of him. He picks it up and is immediately enchanted. In the photograph is a beautiful girl his age. The girl is holding up three fingers.
