Oh noes! Poor Bonesy!

 "WAAAAAAHHH!!!"
 Bonesy cried inconsolably - although Lily tried her best to do so.

"There, there poor bonesy-chops!"

"It was horrible! So horrible! I was terrified I tell you! Terrified!"

"Well, it must have been very scary for you."

Jess seemed less convinced, but then the house skellington was rather prone to exaggeration.

"I'm sure it was quite a shock." Jess tried to sympathise as best she could.

"Th-there I was, m-mi-minding my own bu-business...." Bonesy sobbed and wailed, as he tried once again to stutter the fearful story out of his mouth...

"Poor, poor Bonesy! Take your time! Deep breaths now!"

"Hmmm..."

"Oh dear." Kiko felt a little guilty. "I didn't think he'd take it so badly."

"Ah well." Eliza remarked, trying to stifle a little smile as she looked up from her book.

 Secretly, she thought that things had worked out rather well indeed...

Will we ever find out what horror was inflicted upon our usually cheerful and cheeky House Skellington? It might take Bonesy a few weeks to calm down sufficiently to explain what had turned him into a gibbering wreck, but stay tuned to Small Doll-Big World! to find out!
