Alma sees dolls everywhere. Thinking about what will happen next. Thinking of her family, friends, about her life. Thinking about how much her brother loves touching things, especially toys. Is this how her life ends? Or is there still hope?
An hour of sitting in that exact spot, a red hair girl walked past the shop outside. Crimson looks like a 9 or 10 year old child. Not noticing the doll that looks like her. As she turns she looks at the doll shocked and surprised. Walking to the entrance of the shop she opens the door, but it wouldn’t open.
Crimson grabbed a heavy stick and smashed the door window. As she walked into the store cautiously, she held the stick thinking that something scary might jump out from the darkside of the shop. Still walking but slowly seeing dolls everywhere. She looked everywhere for the doll she saw earlier, but nothing. Then the doll appeared behind her on a shelf. Walking quickly now, but doesn’t notice the thousands of dolls just staring at her. Crimson looked back to see if anyone was about to catch her, no one was in sight. She looked back and the doll disappeared.
The doll was next to Alma. Knowing what to do, Alma got ready to terrify the girl. When Crimson was about to touch the doll that she was looking for, Alma blinked as fast as he could, moving his eyes side to side. Crimson froze in shock, looking pale, and thinking what's happening. After 10 seconds she ran away screaming. Opening the door wide and running outside. The door closed slowly, a boy on the bike rode very fast to the exit. When he was almost out, the door slammed and he got trapped.
Finally, an hour later a little boy walks across the store outside, calling out “Alma! Alma!”. Alma heard the shout, and looked to see who it was from out the window, but it wasn’t clear enough because of the thick snow. The boy looked inside every shop in that alley. When he looked in the doll shop he wasn't sure about what was inside, but he was also curios about what was inside. He opened the door and took a look around the store, and saw a toy that looked just like him. The boy lifted one arm to try and reach the doll. He looked so determined to take it, and then that's when Alma realises who the boy was. It was her brother.
