1. STORIES
I was at home with my brother; it was a dark and freezing night. We
were watching TV when we heard a voice, it came from the street "you
must die" it said. My brother and I were shaking with fear so, we
watched at the window but we didn't see anything, it must have been a
dog we said although we did not think that.
We went to bed, but at 3.00pm we heard a noise from our kitchen. I was
really frightened and I didn’t know what to do. My brother told me to
stay in my bedroom. He went downstairs, but he never came back, I was
really scared about him.
A few minutes later, I went to the kitchen, but everything looked normal.
I turned right and I looked at myself in a mirror. I was covered in blood
and next to me there was a body. "What have I done?" I said and
started crying, I couldn't remember anything, except that I had killed
him, or not?
