My Entry In The Creative Writing- Part One - Write Something And Win Some SBD by @aubreyfox ~ THEY

in aubreyswritinghub •  7 years ago  (edited)

This is my short story for the #aubreyswritinghub creativewriting competition. I’ve kept it very short and it is based on my personal experiences.

THEY

What do I do when They come for a visit? I shouldn’t be so scared after all this time. I smell the perfume or feel the slight chill. The scariest is the Energy I feel as They come too close. Many times They come when I am alone and I am still but a child. I should hide behind a chair or under the bed but They must know I am scared as I tremble with tears running down my face. I don’t know why I am so scared as They have never harmed me but yet I am. I never knew for sure who They were or why They came to visit. Maybe I feared Them from the scary stories from my older siblings. I am grown now and not so afraid. I am almost sad that I was so afraid when I was a child. I think They meant me no harm and maybe They were the grandparents I never knew as They died long before I was born!

Uh hem, where's the rest? I want to read some more. May I have some more, please?
Really caught my attention and imagination.

Lol! I think possibly I should have made it a bit longer but I'm comfortable with it. I share mostly snippets of life experiences. Don't want to scare too many people off or worse bore them to....well you know how that saying goes. Hope you are doing great?! Gonna make some rounds here on steemit so I expect I will be "checking you out" shortly = )

Nicely written. I had a feeling it was ghosts/spirits you were talking about. If you felt it was your grandparents, then I believe it probably was. :)

Thank you debralee. As I have gotten older, I believe it was. I never knew any of my grandparents so I didn't know of having grandparents but one day I will = )

Both of my grandfathers passed away when both of my parents were young. So I know a little about how that feels. I was lucky to have my grandmothers though.
