And BOOM! The bomb went off, Layla heard deadly screams as the night fell. Her friend, best buddy, and her sister died with the explosion and a few minutes later, Layla went where the explosion was, dead people, dust, and… Wait! What she saw was so shocking that she was paralyzed for a few minutes after a guy come and call her name. That voice, it was familiar, then she looked back and saw the same, the same one that tried to kill her. That moment was the worse one of her life, she started screaming like she was being tortured, then the guy said, "Layla.. Im so sorry your sister died. I know she was kind and so nice..". Tears started running down Laylas cheek, and when she didn't even think, she was crying. Jordan, the killer, hugged her and continued, "I know you miss her, so do I.. I'm sorry for trying to kill you last year, Im so ashamed, Im sorry honey.". She pushed him away screaming, "Go away! Why are you trying to be nice to me?? You tried to kill me you.. Jordan I'm sorry, Im really really sorry, I feel so depressed right now.".
I know its not a good starting, but that was what I wanted to tell, but it happened. But really, this is a horror story, so something had to happen. Just to make it a nice starting, but alright, now I need to stop talking about why I started the story like that.
Layla hushed back to her house, she was so frustrated that she ran directly to her room, without speaking to her parents. She tried, she tried watching TV, playing games, texting her friends, but nothing helped, she couldn't take that from her head, she was too worried, thinking too much that she even heard screams from nowhere. She then took a bath and went to bed, It was late and she was still awake. She closed her eyes and all she could see was dead people in the explosion, so she opened her eyes and looked out the window, and she saw something. She looked closely, but still she couldn't guess, so she grabbed her glasses and it was clear, the police officers and firefighters were there investigating what caused the explosion and taking those who were there to the hospital with a chance of saving them. Layla heard her door opening with the wind, then a mysterious figure came, it was her mom, crying furiously. "Momma what happened?" Layla asked. "Sweetie, the firefighters took your sister to the hospital, and the doctors said there's a 80% chance that your sister will not survive," tears started coming down Laylas cheek and when she didn't even notice, she was crying. Her mom hugged her tight and said, "It will be alright honey, you don't need to be worried, she will be fine, if she die, she will be our angel.". Layla stopped crying when her dad walked in. But she couldn't hold it, she went, hugged him and them both started crying together. A few minutes later Layla fell asleep on her mom's chest. Janet, Layla's mom, gently covered Layla and went away. When morning arrived, Layla went down to eat breakfast, she went down and her grandparents where there crying with her parents. "Wha-What's going on?" Layla asked gently. "Your sister, she-she died honey," said her grandmother. Layla hushed to the bathroom to get some tissue because she knew she wouldn't be able to get over that quickly.
5 Years later, Layla was now 17, she then started hanging out with some friends all the time. Her mom needed her help so much, because when Layla was 15, they discovered that Janet had lung cancer. The bell rang and Layla knew it was Jordan so she went running downstairs with her baggage. She hugged him tight and they left to the airport, but when they arrived, Sarah was waiting for them, "Hey!! I wasnt talking to you because I knew if I did I would've ended up telling that I am going too!" Sarah told Layla excited.
