"in the dark, I stand for the day has ended for a man"
I walk down the dim lit road to my house waves crash hard onto the smooth an rocky cliffs of the seaside. I sniffed the sweet palm a salty smell of the sea, as I walk to the pastel yellow house with white windows a brich hammock on the wide porch with detailed carvings I walk inside to see all the lights on but no one here. I sigh as silent tears fill my eyes making t blurry to see I always thought I was strong I looked on the walls of ower oh so perfect family an cry harder knowing no one should look through ower curtains. I hear a groan from upstairs an run to the kitchen and slide a steak knife outta the drawer as I peak upstairs an see a figure. its tall an seems almost dead the hair on the back of my neck stands up i slide an sit to hide.i get scared as goosebumps appear on my arms i grip the knife handle as I hear the stairs creak as the figure walk down I feel something on my neck I scream "GET AWAY CREEP"I hear a girl laughing an look an turn the lights on. my older sister Maggie is standing there laughing as if to kids tried to make out an ends up just embarrassing themselves
