A Super Halloween
The store was filled with the new costumes for Halloween. John’s eyes widened. So many choices! He loved Spiderman. But he loved Batman, too. Or he could be Iron Man. Oh! The Hulk lit up! “Mom! Come look!” John stared, mesmerized by the flashing lights. “Mom! I want this one.” He held up the costume so Mom could see the lights.
She turned the tag over. “Forty bucks?” Her scrunched her nose. “No way.”
“But why?” John hugged the costume. “I want it!”
“I’m not spending that kind of money on something you’re only going to wear once.” She hung it back up and walked away. The lights flashed again.
“But I need a costume for Halloween,” John trotted to catch up.
“We’ll make yours at home like we always do.” John groaned. Homemade costumes were for babies. His friends would laugh at him if he showed up for trick-or-treating in some old rags from home.
That’s exactly what Mom did. Wrapped him up in rags. The rags were cut from an old white tablecloth that had tons of coffee-stains that wouldn’t come clean. She wrapped him up from head to toe, and even wrapped one over his nose. He was completely covered. He looked in the mirror. It wasn’t a super hero, but it was kinda cool. And to top it off, he wore a plastic bone necklace that lit up.
When Halloween came, John met up with his friends. The group looked like the Justice League and the Avengers met up and multiplied. Each one of his friends wore a super hero costume. Two of his friends wore the exact costume he wanted to buy. He tilted his head. They looked like twins.
“Hey, John!” Spiderman called. Superman waved.
“Cool costume,” one of The Hulks nodded. “I like it!”
“I want my mummy!” Batman punched him on the shoulder. “Neat.” John’s chest swelled. It wasn’t a hero, but his homemade mummy costume was certainly super.
