Under The Rug

Two weeks past and it happened again. This weird figure under my rug appears, small but quick. It looks like a huge rat but I can't be sure. The lump moves, and then moves again which knocked our table over with Mum's special lamp on it. Mum passed away just before this lump under the rug appeared. I can see Dad losing his temper. He was sick of this creature! Dad grabbed a chair and whacked the lump. It squeeked then moved no more. We looked under the rug to see what was there..........but the creature was gone! :O
