Fictional/Made-Up

It was indoor recess, and chaos was in full swing. Kids were building questionable Lego towers, others were yelling about Uno rules, and a couple of people were sword-fighting with pencils. Just your average day.

Meanwhile, three friends—Lyla, Jace, and Bella—decided to play charades. Sounds normal, right? Wrong. It got way too real, way too fast.

Jace got the first card. It said “Tornado.” Easy peasy. He spun around like a lunatic and knocked over an entire box of crayons. Nailed it.

Then it was Lyla’s turn. Her card said “Chicken.” She started flapping her arms and clucking like she actually believed she was a chicken. People stopped what they were doing just to stare.

But then… came Bella.

Her card?

“Worm.”

Instead of just wiggling a bit and calling it a day, she legit face-planted on the rug and started inching around like a real worm. On her belly. In front of everyone. And she was COMMITTED.

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” someone yelled.

“SHHH! SHE’S A WORM!” Lyla whispered dramatically.

Bella looked up from the floor, hair all static-y, and said proudly, “I AM THE EARTH CRAWLER.”

A teacher walked over. Looked down. Blinked.

“…You good?”

Bella replied, “Worms don’t talk,” and slithered away.

The class was howling. Lyla fell over laughing. Jace looked like he was going to pass out from trying not to scream-laugh.

The game ended early because the teacher said, “We’re clearly too into this,” but Bella? She stayed worm-mode until the bell rang.

It was official: charades would never be the same again.
