Poor Maria, she probably also assumed that monsters under the bed don't exist.
A nice twist at the end, which the judges of flash fiction love. Congratulations on the win.

Congratulations on your win. It was certainly a deserving win with a twist on the "monster under the bed" story .
Here it was real and instead of eating children, it ate the mother. It's appetite was for adults.
Cleverly written.
Best wishes

Hi Brett,
This is a child's nightmare come alive. It also shows the poor mother that sometimes a child can be right.
Or, I was thinking that maybe it was a practical joke and that a family member is hiding under the bed and reaches to grab her.
Congrats on winning the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy

There's certainly something special about dribble flash fiction and your fine entry didn't disappoint.
It seems mum was in the right place at the wrong time.

Oh! That was a shock! I've never heard a monster going after mum before! That poor child, standing there while his mother was eaten. That was a great dribble fiction story, and with a real twist at the end. Well done, and good luck! :)) Sandra

The title, the picture, and the plot all amounted to a scary bedtime story. I could see no surprises but the plot covered all the bases for a flash fiction entry. Thank you for the scary feeling at the end. I wish you well in the contest!

Clever, a very good twist at the end! Not a "nice" story, but a very imaginative one. That is an excellent entry for the Dribble Flash Fiction. Sending you best wishes.

I really enjoy reading or watching stories about dinosaurs and this one is quite good, expectantly for one so short! The surprise ending was excellent.
