The Elevator

Add Image

It was my last day of the school term. So we going to have a party. I arrived early that day. I was sitting in front of my class when suddenly I overheard a group of students taking.
"A Few days ago a boy killed himself by cutting his wrist in the bathroom"said a boy with a gold hair.
"Where?"he asked his friend.
"In this school"he replied.
"What a horrible news so is he gonna haunt us?"he asked his friend
"Who know?"he replied. When they pasted me, I felt really terrified. Later,my friend arrived and we started the party.

I was having fun and almost forgot about what I overheard. When I got out of class after the party ended,I saw a boy who was wearing blue shirt. He was looking down so I couldn't see his face, but I knew he looked really pale, It was looked scary. I didn't know why, but my instinct was to get away from him. I walked to the elevator.Slowly, My heart was felt like that boy followed me. Guess what I saw? I saw a wound on his wrist I thought he was the boy who died. But why is he trying to follow me? I walked faster and faster, then I broke into a run. I really afraid because there weren't any people around here.

When I reached the elevator, I looked back and I didn't see the boy. What a relief! I was alone in the elevator. Suddenly, I heard someone's phone ring. It wasn't mine so I turned back and saw that boy again. He looked straight at me. He had a knife in his hands. Blood was flowing violently from his wrist.He took a step to me.He looked as if he wanna kill me.I was horrified.I closed my eyes and shout loudly.Then I opened my eyes again I was on my bed and my alarm clock on the table was ringing.Oh my god it just a dream.Maybe It is never happen to me again.

  1. Wow, what a gruesome story! I'm glad you woke up.:)

    I like your use of dialogue, it made me feel like I was there listening to the students talk to each other. You have some visual images, like the blue shirt, and pale skin. What else? Could you add some details that you see in the school, to make us feel like we are there? What about the other senses - touch, taste, hearing, smell?

    He had a knife in my hand?

    Suggestion: Try to combine some of your short sentences. How could you combine the first three sentences? Also, the 4th sentence could begin with a participle phrase. "Sitting in class, I..."

    A scary, tense story. Thanks!

  3. This is a great read. The suspense!

    I thought the use of 'somewhat' weakened the story a little and also if you use paragraphs people are more likely to read your posts.

    I drop by at this blog looking for interesting stories and I found that with your writing, Visal.

    I'll come back looking for more!

  4. Wow, this is an excellent short story. I really was pulled into the story. I appreciate when a writer can tell a story in just a few words and really paint a picture with those words - thanks for posting this, great job!

  5. At the end you said "he had a knife in my hand" maybe you should change it to his hand
