Title: The Invisible FriendLevel: Intermediate (B1)#Story : Emily has had an invisible friend named Felix for as long as she can remember. Her parents think he’s just a product of her imagination, but as strange things start happening around the house—objects moving, doors opening, and cold drafts—her parents become more concerned. Emily insists that Felix is real and that he’s there to protect her. One day, she tells her parents that Felix warned her about something bad in the house—something dangerous. Her father starts to investigate but soon realizes that Felix might be more than just an imaginary friend. As the strange occurrences intensify, Emily insists they leave the house. Felix stops the unseen threat, and the family moves, but they’re left wondering—was Felix real, and did he save them from something they couldn’t see?#Vocabulary :Confidant – a person with whom one shares a secret or private matter.Invisible – unable to be seen.Protect – to keep someone or something safe from harm.Figment – something imagined but not real.Whisper – to speak very softly.#Grammar Focus:Present Perfect Tense Used to describe actions that began in the past and are still relevant.
