A Chirp: A Short Story

The evening was ominous and gray. The cold wind blew softly, and carried a heavy scent of blood through the streets. A loud intense screech pierced the ears of its listener, leaving the body trembling in fear.

Hurried footsteps could be heard just outside the door. A concerned voice could be heard, “Captain, what happened? We heard the commotion outside.”

“Okay sweetie, get some rest, and we will get there soon, just wanted to check on you.” said my Mom.

“Dr. Thomas, these past few weeks I have been terribly exhausted, I’d hate for my daughter to become ill, is there anything I can do?” Jennifer says.

As I awaken to the eerie ringing of distant church bells resonating through our humble weatherboard residence, I can’t help but feel disenchanted that the piercing pain of my arm has failed to cease overnight. Nor has the pain I feel now that I ain’t allowed to go to ol’ Tom Robinson’s funeral, that must be why the church bells are so damn loud today. How did it get to this? Me stuck in this rotting bed, with nothing to read and no one to talk to, Tom passed on, and only two Finches at his funeral. Dead, he’s dead, I still can’t rightly understand how, how them jury men convicted a mockingbird.

“I don't think I can, because this morning my mom said that I had to clean my room, I'm sorry,” I said.

“I 'm so sorry I have to be the one to tell you, but your parents are in the hospital, and I am simply their nurse.” The lady explained. Becky sat there paralyzed, not knowing what to do.

When I woke up this Halloween morning it was pouring.I thought halloween was destroyed and ruined.I played around for a while my dad said “we were going to Chimings we were going there because the kids meals were free”.

“You were out like a light. I tried to wake you up before my class and you swore that you would get up, but when I came back you were still in bed. Are you feeling alright?”

Karamatsu turned around to see the man charging towards him. The blade slashed Karamatsu’s face, he hit the ground with a thud.

“Hey, Allyson,” she called as she shook my shoulders, “it would be nice if you woke up, so I could take a nap.”

Once they reached Chibita's home, Chibita was about to reach into his pocket and take out the keys to open the door, but Karamatsu was faster and took his hand, holding onto it. Chibita was confused at first when Karamatsu began speaking. He just wanted to get inside his own house quickly, it was starting to get a little chilly outside. He rolled his eyes again when Karamatsu talked about girls fawning over him, but his eyes immediately widened once he heard the other finish his last sentence. What? Did he just say he's in love with me? Did I hear that right? Chibita didn't know what to say, he was caught off guard, and just kept silent. His thoughts were racing endlessly in his head, as he tried to think of an appropriate response.

“Why not have a nap Sweetie. I’ll wake you at lunchtime. Tomorrow the Doctor may have some news for us. In the meantime, try not to think about it. You will only stress yourself out.”
