Excuse Me, Demon! 

I was horrified. Someone behind me lied. It touched my shoulder. I couldn’t see. My eyes curiously searched for the demon throughout the night. I could neither sleep nor breathe. The satan was invisible. All I could feel was the deadly presence of nefarious souls surrounding me. The illusion of the dreadful personna shadowed me and quavered my heartbeats. Each and every moment following that night seemed to be a burden enveloping my life. My soul demanded the Almighty either to narcotize me or to end my existence. But it had to be continued. The night seemed to be a millenium. The darkness exacerbated my pain. As the moments passed, I found my heart trapped between chimerical fantasy and reality. Somehow, I foregathered my courage and shouted, “Excuse Me, Demon”. I was left aghast and completely bewildered when I found my alter egos in such a villainous demeanour.

  1. Thank God, my English is neutral and yours is amazing.
    It would have been very hard for me to read and understand if I had known every word’s meaning. But thankfully I don’t. Yayyyyy…. I won. 😅😅😅

    I read it without even got scared. I loved the presentation though. You’re the only person I have seen who knows and learns Vocabulary this deeply. I really appreciate that Shreyu. Keep it up. 😇😊

    1. That’s the most beautiful compliment I have got on this story, Cezane. Thank you so much. What more does a writer want from his/her reader to feel what he/she has written. 🙂 ❤
