"She touched the box in her pocket and smiled..." pt.2

Continuing from the previous post......

"What are you doing?!"
Jumped in fright, she looked up to see the librarian's face inches away from hers. "Nothing" as she hid the diary,"I was just..uhh.. re-shelving the books."
"Make sure they are still in good condition or you'll pay for it!"
"Yes ma'am." With that, the librarian left with a humph.
Sighing with relief, she turn her back and picked up the book and a tiny piece of paper came out of the diary. Curious, she read its contents.'Find its key and will have 3 wishes are granted. Beware, in return, the price will be great. Look for its twin.' She blinked."It's twin?" She then realized there was another diary somewhere around her. She searched around for two hours and was ready to give up, but then, she saw noticed the same diary, only in crimson with no keyhole, and a key embedded on its cover. The problem was, it was in the librarian's office, which no one except the librarian could come in. not even the principal. Glancing for anyone noticing her, she snuck in the office and snatched the book,pulled the key out of its cover, and ran out. As she was only 2 feet away from the office, she turned around to face the librarian, looking irritated.
"Just what are you doing?"
"Nothing ma'am"
"Are you finished with the books?"
"Yes ma'am"
"Are they still in good condition?"
"Yes ma'am"
"It better be or I'll make sure you will regret lying to me! Understood?!"
"Yes ma'am"for
"Well what are you still doing here? Out! You!" She pointed at the study group. "Leave as well! You have caused nothing but ruckus. OUT! OUUUUUT!!!!"
With that, she and the study group rushed to the door. When she arrived home, she immediately checked for the key and the diary. Carefully, she puts the key in the keyhole and turn it, hearing a small click, signaling it was open.
She opened the diary only to see something old, hairy..a paw! She looked at it in horror and saw another paper, only what was written was in what look like blood. 'You who have opened this earn 3 wishes, but beware.....'
Reading this, her eyes sparkled in delight."Grant people's wishes?! This looks like that monkey's paw I heard that grants wishes. This must be it." She closed and locked the diary, left it on her desk, puts the key in a box and left it in her jacket pocket.She touched the box in her pocket and smiled...


Pretty bad, right? Oh well. I edited it so it wasn't exactly everything I had wrote in the beginning. This kind of story reminds you of something, right? This actually came from the brilliant mind of the writer of "The Monkey's Paw", W.W. Jacobs.
