but it seemed to be going backwards, by Grace S

I was sat in my house with my three sisters, we were waiting for our dad who was coming back from work as he walked in he brought us a present. We all opened it together and it was a clock. “... but it seemed to be going backwards,” I said.  

Moment later, I was getting my pjs on and the clock was in our room. As we slept we could hear the clock ticking, I picked it up and took it outside of our room and I slept in peace. But when I woke up the next morning it was gone!
