Hey, HolographicLadybug. Bella here (nice to meet you). Happy Review Day!
Okay, further to what the last reviewer said, you can easily re-classify this as a script in the 'edit work' mode (I'm pretty sure). Mysterious is right, this is definitely a playscript, not a short story.
Other than that, I'm pretty impressed for such a relatively short piece. I love how casually Tommy mentions the "dead bodies" as part of a completely innocent conversation about a bedtime story. Great twist!
For me, I interpreted this story as being about trust and the impact of 'evil' on this. More after Tommy's little 'story', which was so simple, like the child, and yet so... meaningful. Whether intentional or not, I think this shows that you have great skill as a playwright.
I should be intrigued to see this developed and/or extended, for example to get a little more of the Mum's reaction, and some context (I mean... bodies!) on this conversation.
That's all from me. Keep writing!
