Someone intruded while shouting in strange voices. They sounded like girls,

but I have no idea who they are if I can't see their faces. Or rather, there was

no way I could see their faces. There were two intruders, both carrying

baskets covered in white cloth and wearing pumpkin masks over their

heads... Pumpkins?

W-what on earth? Pumpkin Heads? Halloween costumes already?

As I continued to look bewildered, "Trick or Treat!"

"Yay!"

They made the same greeting again while flailing their arms.

Were they trying to dance?

...I needed to calm down. All right, so they're in a Halloween mood. Does

that mean I should throw beans at them? Or I should pour sweet tea at them?

No, wait, I remember now. I looked coldly at the dancing pumpkin heads and

said, "If it's candy you want, I haven't got any, so get lost."

One of the pumpkin heads gasped.

"Yikes! How mean!"

"But you are welcome to buy our anthologies."

"Not interested!"

"Who the hell are you guys anyway!?"

It was then the two pumpkin heads walked forward in synchrony and showed

me their baskets. As though trained for this, they both spoke at the same time.

"We're doing door-to-door sales for the Confectioneries Studies Club. Would

you like some cookies, biscuits and cream puffs?"
