My biggest surprise ever
It was nearly mid night; I was sitting alone in my room where I usually did all my writing. I knew if I threw down my pen and paper I had taken up to write the story, I would not be able to touch them again till this time tomorrow. Silence lay deep around me... the light from the lamp on the table crept out through the window and threw fearful shadow on the thick darkness outside. I must confess, I’ m a coward by nature. I closed and bolted the windows...
That night I was all alone in the house, everyone went out for some or the other work. Nobody bothered that I was scared of darkness. I heard weird sounds and I got very scared. I removed the curtain and I saw huge shadow. I ran in the other parts of the house and closed all the other window’s and curtained them. I then went to the kitchen to bring some water as I was going I heard a sound as if something broke, I was in dilemma I was sweating , I thought that the person would be inside the house or may be behind me, I just turned around and what I saw was a glass fallen which made me scared. I picked up the glass pieces and threw them in the dustbin.
I went out of the kitchen and passed through the drawing room and as I walked through the stairs for my room I thought as if somebody was following me but as I turned around I found no one there. I really got scared now, I just wanted to get inside my room and bold till the time sun comes so that I can get out of the house. I ran to my room and closed my door I heard the ticking of the watch and I saw it was 11 40. I moved little bit of the curtain and I saw darkness outside. I thought of talking to my friend, I took my phone and what I saw was again a horror the charge was too low and the charger was in the drawing room where I had no courage to go again. I then thought of chatting with
After some time the door bell rang, I got more scared as no one was expected so late night; my parents were coming back a day later. I decided not to open the door at any cost, the bell rang 5 to 6 times and it finally stopped. After it stopped I rushed down the stairs to call my parents and let them know about all this. As I came down I thought as if some tree fell off on the roof or our garden I tried looking for it through the window, I found the world’s deadliest creature, a snake on our garden chair. I got much scared by now, I again heard the ticking of the clock it was 11:55 now, that day my own house was the unsafe place for me on the earth.
I called my parents and they rejected my call, I called my brother he could not receive my call, probably this was not the right time to call either. I had no other option but to get back to my room. I ran towards my room picking up the charger from the drawing room so that I could talk to my friend. I went to my room again bolted it, and went on my bed, I called my friend and even he dint pick up my call may be he slept early today. But why only today? I thought of calling my other friend and by the time I could do that I again heard door bell. Now it rang couple of times and I had to go down to open the door. I took torch with a long bamboo stick to be safe. I passed my drawing room and it was going to be 12:00, I asked on the door, who it was, I saw through the hole and could see no one. I had no choice but to open the door, my hands were shivering and I somehow managed to open the door.
I saw no one at the door, I came little forward and someone from back closed my eyes. My hands almost became chill I was sweating. I heard some noises of people around, but I couldn’t recognise them. They made me sit on the chair. I heard the screeching sound of the table. I smelled the chocolate around me and the pungent smell of the match stick. Finally when they opened my eyes and I saw bright setting with people gathered around me, I saw a huge chocolate cake in front of me. As it was 16th march my birthday. This was the scariest day and the best birthday for me ever.
