Bewitched!

The following is a stand-alone story. 

But, if you do wish to know the background, do read the previous 100 words story, the Part-1- Are You There?


Peter looked at the mannequin that resembled his daughter Anna.

It stood motionless while Anna's phone was ringing on the table right in front of it.

He was convinced that Anna had turned into a mannequin.

He remembered the fairy-tales he had read when he was small.

Princesses came under magical spells, the effect of which wore off later.

Who or what had triggered this in the first place?

Peter started investigating.

A queer-shaped glass perfume-bottle stood on the table.

On it, it was written in bold letters- "BEWITCHED!"

In italics, it was written- "Floral smell that casts a spell."


100 words story for Friday Fictioneers.

Do you believe in magical spells? What do you think happened? 
Does Peter succeed in reviving Anna? How does Anna come to life again?
