But, my imagination got the best of me, because of how suspicious the situation looked. First of all, I was at the supermarket buying some groceries in the afternoon on a sunny summer day. As I walked to my car outside, i saw somebody in jeans and a black hoodie. I have always been interested in mysteries, even though I have just gotten a degree

    It all began with a simple phone call one Monday night after dinner. Lorenzo, my father hollered up the stairs, “it’s for you. It’s Alex, and he sounds anxious.” As I came downstairs to pick up the phone, I was curious, I was tired and had looked forward to a nice quiet evening at home, not another stupid adventure adventure with Alex. Thirty minutes later, however, Alex’s silver Mustang convertible swung into our driveway, and Alex was leaning on the horn before the car came to a full stop. Grabbing

    The day of my sixteenth birthday was boring and uneventful. Living with my Aunt and Uncle in a farm on the outside of town, I was used to being friendless and lonely, but waking up on my special day and realising everyone had forgotten was and all time low. “ Goodmorning,” I said to my Aunt, walking into the kitchen.

She would just stop at the coffee shop, it was just down the street from the Library. Spitting in her sink, reaching out she grabbed hold of the glass that sat on the edge of the sink.

    The snow had been falling steadily since noon and it didn’t look like it was going to stop anytime soon. I gazed out the window, looking at my backyard. The beautiful snow had already been messed up by the neighborhood kids, yet it was still as white as an angel’s wings. I smiled to myself, turning away so I could check if I had everything. A car horn honked, drawing my attention to the front door. I let out a sigh, grabbing my house key as I walked outside. I waved at my grandma, locked the door
