The Phone Call

 

Suddenly the window slammed shut. Eerie sounds came from every room echoing through the walls. Then suddenly the phone rang. Sylvia, who was all alone, slowly went to pick up the phone. An unfamiliar and creepy voice answered asking where her parents were. Sylvia actually had no idea where her parents were. She just woke up an hour ago, finding herself all alone in this gigantic mansion where her family just moved in. Her hand was trembling and she started to panic while the person on the phone was breathing loudly. She finally decided to tell the person that she didn’t know where they were, since she really didn’t know where they were.

Then all of a sudden the door slammed open and she heard someone walked in coming towards the room where she was in. Sylvia put the phone down and ran to another room hoping to find somewhere to hide. But it was too late. Something or someone was already in the room where she was and there was nowhere to hide. It seemed that her breathed was sucked out of her lungs for she was so terrified and it was hard to breathe. Someone walked towards her and talked in a creepy tone, exactly like on the phone. Now Sylvia was wondering how the person on the phone came to her house like out of nowhere. The person then grabbed her and tied her up and carried her outside through the rain. She was trying to scream and kick this stranger but she was tied up too tight that it was hard to suck in air. The person seemed to be running quick and fast that Sylvia was getting wet until they came to a car. She was thrown to the back seat and the person drove on to the road.

Sylvia saw that the person was actually a man. She expected him to look scary but he looked like the kind of guy who was made fun of because of his glasses. She wondered how this guy had a scary voice with such a face like that. Right now all she could do is think of some possibilities and why this man kidnapped her. The road seemed to go on for miles and miles so she lay down and fell asleep.

Sylvia woke up, still soaked up from the rain inside the car all by herself. She struggled to get up to look out in the window seeing that the car was going to fall over the cliff if she moved. She gasped and wished she had never slept when her parents left the mansion. She turned her head slowly and saw the man talking on his cell phone then turned to look at her. She snapped her down pretending she was still asleep. She was panicking and was hoping she would know how to get out of this situation. At that moment, she reached her fingers to open the window to hear his conversation.

 “If you don’t give me the 20 million dollars that I want I will make this car drop with your daughter inside over the cliff!” the man shouted.

Sylvia closed her eyes as the rain grew harder, shifting the weight of the car and dropping the car off the cliff…

But when she opened her eyes all she felt right now was the car bobbing up and down. She then heard sirens and saw the man handcuffed. The police untied her and so she went to look in the front to see the “cliff” only 2 to 3 feet. The man should be stupid to put me here as a threat for 20 million dollars thought Sylvia. But now all she cared about was to go to her parents and to go home.
