    IIt was the coming together of the Johnson family, as they had not seen each other in over two decades, a sense of tension could be seen round the table as the atmosphere was and grew heavy only sounds of plate could be heard as everybody remained silent, just eating their meals and waiting for someone to break the ice in this awkward dinner. And so, a life line came along, the phone rang but no body picked it up, as they were still observing the other, it rang again but still no body picked it up and as it rang for the third time the butler came up from his duties and picked the phone up, tea...Si9one door

    The New Neighbourhood

    The new neighbourhood is so damn creepy…better,creepiest.I grew up in a place with noisy neighbours,full streets and jolly children.So,shifting to a completely new locality after 18 years of staying at a place is a BIG deal.Although,it generally wouldn’t have mattered if the neighbours were noisy,uncles would have been music addicts or Mom would have been able to cope up with the talkative aunties living by or behind.This new neighbourhood is like filled with backdated people and I?-Don’t even like it one bit.

    The Best Crash Ever

    The old, beat-up black sedan cuts right in front of the silver SUV in front of our bus. The SUV slams into the back of the sedan, sending it flying off the side of the highway and smack into a huge oak tree. The SUV spins out and lands in the next lane over, facing the wrong direction.I see the whole thing from my almost-at-the-front seat.We have to stop. There's no choice, with both of the wrecked cars sitting in front of us and glass scattered across the road. Our driver, who'd told us, quite loudly, as we left the airport that his name was Charlie and he didn't stand for any shenanigans whi...Si9one door
