Fiction Writing - Is There No Turning Back?

Down a long narrow pathway, I stood there confused and frightened

feeling that there was no way out. The £10 was still in my pocket but

soaking wet. I shouldn't even be here. Why didn't I just listen for

once?

Sitting in front of the television watching Eastenders (omnibus) my

mum walks through from the kitchen, "Can you please go down to the

groceries for me?"

Excuse me; go down the groceries right in the middle of my favourite

program, ooh I do not think so. Not for you not for anyone would I

miss an episode of that!

"Why?"

"Because I said so, so go now please!"

"Forget it as if I should. You always do this to me; whenever I'm

watching something that means a lot to me you always have to

interfere. What is it with you?" Never in my life have I answered back

like that to my mum she was surprised and even I was. What the hell

was I thinking? Oh god it's started now.

"NOW YOU GET OUT OF THIS HOUSE AND DO AS I SAY! NOW!"

"FINE! But I will say this: DO NOT BLAME ME IF I DON'T COME BACK!" and

that was it. I was down that street faster than you could say HEY.

8:45 - I was almost there. Wasn't far to go now.

9:00 - I knew that I had been here once already and now the shops had

closed. Why do I get a sudden feeling that something is not right

here?

Great! I am now lost. Why didn't I just listen to my mum in the first

place? God I have to be so stubborn and childish. As it says in the

bible: 'Love thy neighbour' well looks like I ignored that one big

time.

So I decided to take a short cut back to my house just as I always do

when coming back from school. It starts to rain. I have no coat and

it's raining.
