School was out and Jerrick walked to the gate. He didn’t see his mother anywhere, but a strange woman came his way.
“Hi, Jerrick” Meg sagte charming when she reached the eight Jahr old. Jerrick took a few steps back. “Don’t be afraid. I know Du don’t know me, but do Du remember being sick and a man made Du feel better?”
Jerrick nodded heavily.
“I’m a very good friend of that man. He’s visiting your mom and I was so kind to come and pick Du up” Meg explained.
Jerrick’s teacher walked towards them.
“Is there a problem?” she asked suspicious.
“No, I’m just picking the boy up” Meg responded.
“Who are you? I’ve never seen Du around before. I can’t give my pupils to a strangers” the teacher said.
“Oh, right, hang on” Meg sagte and she searched her pockets. She conjured the note and gave it to the teacher, who opened it and read it.
“Seems alright” the teacher said. “My apologies, Miss Masters. I hope Du understand. We can’t take any chances”
“Of course” Meg replied sweet. She reached her hand out. “Are Du coming?” Jerrick reluctantly accepted her hand and let her drag him along.
Ten Minuten later they were back at Mrs. Jones house. Meg entered and pushed Jerrick inside. “Go upstairs. Your mom is talking” she ordered and she forced Jerrick to walk upstairs. He walked to his bedroom and sank down on the bed.
“Now, Du stay here, until it’s dark. Then Du can come out” she said, before walking out of the room.
