Reflection in The Water
Now I am 16... butwhen i was 7 theres was this creek by my granpa's house... iloved to go in it... and look at my refection. but one day... itall changed. My grandpa used to always come with me. he used totell me, "never go to the creek alone!"
I just figured he didn't want me to fall in, but now i'm not sosure. i would have asked him... but i never had the courage. Butnow i do... but its too late. my gradpa's dead. After he died...i went to the creek. the creek was always deserted. but when iwent after my grandpa died... i looked in the water... and saw ashadow... it looked small and wrinkly. i was only eight so itgave me a little fright. But i got really scared when it said,"What's wrong Jami? " in a dry voice. I felt my heartshrink. I was stupid at the time, so i said sarcasticly' "ha, ha, ha aunt karen!" I turned around hysterically laughinwhen i noticed it wasnt my aunt. She was frowning. "Whydidn't you listen to your grandpa?? Dont go by the creek alone!!!"i saw her hand reach into a pocket. i had no idea what was goingto happen. then...she pulled out a knife. i ran and ran and ran.when i looked back... she was gone.
