Beast from the Dark

There is a Beast living under the Boy's bed. The Boy says that the Beast shrinks in the daylight, but when his mother turns off the light at night, he swells up.

One day, the Boy, out of fear, begins to talk to him. And gradually the Beast becomes his best friend, as well as his protector, confessor, and guide. Then the Boy's father dies in the Yom Kippur War. "Beast," says the Boy, "go to your daddy and tell him that I love him and miss him." The Beast becomes a link between the living and the dead: he carries news back and forth, bringing the Boy advice and comfort. He also watches over the Boy's little sister in the womb, supports her mother during labor, and even rocks the Baby at night. And the Beast always leads the Boy to where he is destined to be, to become stronger and happier every day.
