Fable

At the school carnival, Mia spotted a giant stuffed bear at the prize booth.

All she had to do was toss a ring onto a bottle to win it.

She tried — once, twice, three times — but missed every time.

Mia scowled and said loudly,

"That bear looks cheap anyway. I didn’t really want it."

But as she walked away, she couldn’t help glancing back over her shoulder.
