A short story – The tranquil night wind

The tranquil night wind whistled gently, puffing though the strands of my hair as I slept. The luminous amber streetlights let outside twitched as they projected a silhouette of tall, lofty trees prancing in the serene wind through my windows onto me. The sky was clear and the stars were easily evident as they twinkled through the night. After a day of unbearable heat and hard work done, I was in a very satisfying peace hardly had awoken through instinct where I had felt that something was irritating me. I felt like I had forgotten to do something and my brain wouldnt pinch reminding, but what was it reminding me? Thats the question. I tried to ignore it but my mind wouldnt stop sensing a opinion of discomfort.I finally mulish to get up and try to resolve the matter and investigate what was going on. I approached my door and just before I went to grasp the door enshroud I felt a slight shock run through the palm of my right hand. I abruptly pulled away and froze for a minute . It was dark and naughty in my room so I decided to turn on the lights. With caution I flicked on the light switch and was surprised to not feel any more shocks. the luminous light bulb from the ceiling of my room glistened so luminously that I went blind for a few seconds and I just stood on that point rubbing my eyelids as they couldnt cope with the sudden illumination of the room. Feel quite dizzy, I continued to attempt to open the door.I vigilantly stretched out to reach for the door handle again and this time I successfully held it firmly without any shocks. Maybe it was just my mind playing up with me? I mean, it was 3am in the morning and I wasnt feeling too bothered as I investigated what felt wrong. I twisted the door handle but it didnt open. I tried to twist it open again but it didnt seem to open. At this point I was furious I took a deep breath and pinched myself to make sure this wasnt just another horrid dream, unfortunately it wasnt. I took a big step butt away from my door and charged towards it whilst I firmly clutched the handle and dragged it mightily. It still didnt open. I roared in fury. I screamed for my parents but I got no reply. I repeated but this time for my siblings but I stood there without a response. No words could explain the rage I was in. I shrieked formerly more and I irately jolted my door which countered with a massive bruise to my foot. I fell to my feet with my head on the ground, tears recklessly silklike down my face. This wasnt the day for someone to mess with me, not at all.I got back up on my feet and as I loomed towards the window, I perceive a whisper which said its just you and me in a sonorous demonic voice followed by an clunky cackle. I brusquely stop and jumped with fear. I hastily dived under my bed and snatched the broad metal pole I had hidden under there. I got back up and spent 2 or so minutes inspecting my room looking to see if by any chance it was anyone. Was it my conscience? Was it somethi ng outside? Or was it really some variety of spectre really talking to me? I scuttled to my open window and took a pro longed gaze outside to see if anyone was outthere was nobody. It was an opaque, pitch cruddy night with the white stars twinkling above. The roads were ever so quiet.Who would be out at this time? I guess I did hear something later on all, 3am in the morning and my mind seems to be playing with me I couldnt even open the door to go and get some water or anything else refreshing. I turned away from the window to retry the door againand I heard a really deafening thump. I jerked in consternation and my sum was thumping so hard that I could see it beating out of my t shirt. I gradually rotated myself towards the direction of the noise with my heart in my hands. All four windows in my room had pounded shut. Coincidence? Im starting not to think so. I stood there in awkward silence for a good 5 minutes. Why me? I stepped foot to approach the windows and the lights f licked off. I squealed worse than those in an intense horror movie this wasnt no movie this was reality and I dont know what was happening. I couldnt see anything but a slight shadow of something cigaret me, shortly after that I felt a cold, icy hand on my shoulder. As I turned around, my vision instantly went blurry and I couldnt see much but I could see something similar to a white spirit with gleaming red eyes. I fainted.
