Ariel kept on lying down on the sofa after her father went out of the room. When he had said that he wouldn't take long, she had imagined that he would step out for some seconds and would come right back.
However, her father didn't come back after what felt like an hour to her. In reality, it had barely been a minute.
She folded her arms and tried to stay still. She didn't want to make a sound and attract the demons to the room that she was in. She had seen her father putting a spell on the door but she didn't think that her father's magic was stronger than the demons who were lurking outside.
In her perspective, her father was just a human who could do a few magic tricks.
After waiting for some more, Ariel started to get restless. She slowly sat up on the sofa, and then slowly opened her bag.
She took out a toy bunny from her bag and smiled. She suddenly forgot about the demons and her father. And she started playing with that doll.
