Lily sat on her bedroom floor, surrounded by her favorite dolls. The night outside was dark and stormy, with rain tapping insistently against the window. She tried to focus on her play, making her dolls dance and talk to each other, but the sound of the storm made her uneasy.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning lit up the room, casting eerie shadows on the walls. Lily's eyes widened with fear as she clutched her dolls tighter. Moments later, a loud clap of thunder rumbled through the house, making her jump.

Lily's heart raced, and she looked around her room nervously. She pulled her favorite doll, close to her chest.
