My friend had an imaginary friend when she was younger, named Julie. One day her parents told her she was too old to play with Julie, and that it was time to play with other girls. Then, a few weeks later, she came in to dinner and her little sister said: "Don't sit there! That's where Julie sits!"
Imagine her shock! Her little sister had stolen Julie.
