Michelle told him about Amanda and how it’s always foggy when she is around.
After he finished talking to her, Michelle went outside to the playground and
she began to play with a little boy named Billy. He tried to balance on a high
ledge, and then he began to tease Michelle because she is crippled. Suddenly the
fog came in and the laughing was replaced with a scream of terror and when the
fog cleared, Billy lay twisted on the ground. 23. Michelle’s father came
running when he heard Michelle calling for help, and when he found Billy, he was
still breathing. Later the family went to their neighbors home to pick up Jenny.

but Michelle said she didn’t do anything and she went back to bed. 25.

Michelle silently left the playground. Billy Evans died in the hospital. 26.
