One Late Night

by Alefia Kothambawala

One late night, a husband and wife were walking home from a party. There were said to be murders at that part of town.

Suddenly, the wife heard footsteps coming from behind. When she looked back nothing was there. She turned around and the husband was gone. By then, she was really frightened and ran all the way home.

When she got to her mansion, she saw her husband's body hanging from a tree. His face was covered in blood. On the bark of the tree in bold red letters there were words that said "Your next".
