Into the woods
#WritcoStoryChallenge
The streetlights were dim as the mist enclosed it in its mysterious grip. She peered out of her window into the darkness, was there someone out there or was it her imagination?

"That's the end of this story students, see you next day"

Bell rang. Another day passed on.

As usual I took my things and got into my car. Suddenly a phone call

"hey it's me ...your friend ....hey I have a plan, why don't you come to my house tonight?"

I was tired and so I said

" No man, I have some work"

He was excited, and said "Hey man, today is Friday and it's weekend, let's enjoy"

I was looking for excuses, however I found one and said " you know that I'm a teacher and tomorrow is Children's day and birthday of Nehru* , so I have to come to school"

He was sad " Please man , it's been a long time ...."

Anyway I agreed to him " Ok , I will come tonight"

It was night 10, I got ready and took my car .

To go to his house I has to pass through the forest. It's a beautiful long path , a straight road , covered by tress aside . There were only a few streetlights.

It was sure that it will be beautiful in night.

I reached that road .I drove my car slowly.

wow , what a feel.

As I drove my car through that forest I noticed that some of the street lights were not working and some we're dim. Anyway I drove my car.

Suddenly a man came running opposite to the car in a very high speed.

I was scared and I closed my eyes and stopped the car.

There was nobody running. As the street lights were dim it was not clear.

I peered out of the window into darkness, was there someone out there or it was my imagination?
