Mon intuition ne m'avait pas trompée. Parmi les ombres de la pièce, les ombres stagnantes, alourdies de silence, il y avait une ombre légère, souple comme un chat, qui se dandinait.

Mais quand l'ombre s'est penchée sur mon lit en levant un bras au bout duquel luisait quelque chose de métallique, je lui ai sauté au cou et j'ai murmuré, ma bouche contre son oreille :-Ce coup-ci, Papa, tu es fait ! Rendez-vous : la maison est cernée ! Il avait tellement envie de rire qu'il a été obligé de lâcher la cloche sur le lit, Le personnage qui raconte a peur de l'ombre.
