An energetic boy was busy tidying up his colorful bedroom when he heard a tiny, shaky sneeze. He looked under his big wooden bed and found a surprising new friend hiding there. It was Gus, a small ghost who looked very nervous and quite wiggly. An energetic boy realized that Gus was not trying to be spooky at all; he was actually shivering with worry. 'Why are you hiding?' asked An energetic boy with a curious tilt of his head. Gus whispered that the room was getting much too dark for him to feel comfortable.

Gus explained that even though he was a ghost, he was actually quite afraid of the dark. He missed the bright sunshine and the cheerful glow of the daytime. An energetic boy nodded because he knew exactly how it felt to want a little bit of light during the night. 'Do not worry, Gus,' An energetic boy said bravely while patting his chest. He decided right then and there to help his ghostly friend find the perfect way to feel safe. Together, they started a grand quest to find the best light in the whole house.

The pair climbed up the creaky stairs to the dusty attic to search for a solution. They found old, heavy lamps and dim lanterns that flickered with a weak, tired flame. Gus hovered near the ceiling, looking down at the long, dancing shadows with big, round eyes. None of these old lights felt warm or friendly enough to chase away the spooky gloom. An energetic boy noticed Gus was still shivering, so he reached out to hold the ghost's chilly, misty hand. They needed something much more special than a dusty old lantern from the attic.

An energetic boy plugged it into the wall, and the room instantly filled with a gentle, golden glow. Gus the Ghost stopped shivering and began to float in happy little circles around the star. The light was soft like a cozy blanket and didn't create any scary shadows at all. Gus let out a joyful sigh, feeling his ghost heart fill with wonderful courage.
