A Winter's Evening.......
I was just walking recently (Jeddah has gotten a chilling weather recently) and wind was whooshing onto me. I decided that why not write a short story about it? It's winter, so it fits perfectly!
A WINTER'S EVENING............
_________________________________________________________________________________
"Rumaysa, can you please give this envelope to Mrs. Hope?" called my mother. "Okay!" I replied, full of enthusiasm for this. I knew that walking in the cold, harsh winds would be freezing, but I hadn't been out for a bit of a while and actually wanted to taste the icy winds. I fetched the envelope, slipped my feet into my boots and decided to not wear my jacket, since I thought that it wouldn't be that cold outside. I opened the door and shut it behind me, slowly climbing down the stairs that were in the small apartment which had only four houses. I opened the door, and closed it quietly. I ran to get my bike, and mounted it. Just then, whoosh! A slashing wind swept by, leaving me chittering in the cold. Slowly, I worked the pedals and rode down the street, leaving my home behind me. I felt as if it was going to snow any minute! But it wasn't too cold for that. Finally, I reached my destination. As I left, the winds had grown at their speed. I pedaled home as fast as I could, in a desperate attempt to escape from the cold winds. Wrong move. The speed of my bike practically helped me to catch up with the stormy gale. But I didn't need to slow down, because my home was already here. I dismounted my bicycle. The wind blew even more. It hit me straight in the face, and blew my hair upwards, messing my careful brushing. My dress blew so hard that a tiny spot tore. I ran home, the wind pulling me backwards all the way. It was so cold now, a few icicles were forming on rooftops and a few stones of hail were dropping down. I ran all the more, and reached my home. I opened the door and went for a cup of hot cocoa. I sat by the fire, so it warmed me. I felt almost happy that it was so cold. I don't know why, but I did feel happy because of that. And then I ran to my diary to write what had happened.....................
