Time's up
Lilly went jogging at 8:00 pm as usual. The night was beautiful and quiet. While she was jogging, she went past an old house that most people were scared of. They said it used to be the house of a mad man who had killed his wife before committing suicide. She stopped and looked at the dark and abandoned house. Lilly suddenly got goosebumps and decided to leave quickly. When she turned around, a man’s voice screamed her name. Lilly looked over her shoulder, and she saw the shadow of a person coming out of the front door of the house. She was so scared that she screamed for help. When one of the neighbors came out, he could just see a girl running away. “That house again,” he thought, and quickly got inside his own house.
