Jack Staples And The Ring Of Time - Plot & Excerpts
Jack’s eyes shot open as thunder roared from somewhere outside his window. Pulling the covers up past his nose, he stared out his bedroom window at the darkening sky. Something about the boiling clouds terrified him. He wasn’t sure, but he thought it must be morning. When a second clap of thunder rattled the windows, Jack squeezed his eyes shut, pulling the covers over his head. He was much too afraid to go and look out the window. He lay under the covers feeling like a foolish child. You’re too old to be afraid of the dark! he berated himself. When he pulled the covers down from his head, he saw that outside the sky was blue and the sun shone brightly. Maybe it was a dream, he thought as he stepped from his bed and quickly dressed. Still too nervous to look out the window, Jack went in search of his mother. When he reached the bottom of the stairs, he saw her apron lying crumpled on the floor next to the open front door.
