"Mommy! Mommy! Can I get some ice cream?" Ellie begged, tugging on her mother's sleeve. 

Mrs. Saw looked down at her daughter and smiled. "Of course honey but one scoop only. And after you need to get ready for bed."

"Ok! I will I promise!" Ellie ran up to the truck, smiling as the man gave her her ice cream. Mrs. Saw wasn't too comfortable with the truck. The man was giving her a creepy smile and the music of the truck was a little too repetitive. 

Ellie walked up to her mother, the ice cream already close to finished. "Come on sweetie time for bed."

"Aw ok Mommy." With one last look at the truck Mrs. Saw walked back into the house with Ellie.

Ellie was finally asleep. Mrs. Saw collapsed on the couch, tired. It had been a long day. Then she heard it- a high tune that was oddly familiar. 

That's when it hit her. It was the sound from the ice cream truck. And it was coming from Ellie's bedroom.
