Answer:

THE NIGHTMARE

I woke up with a start, sweating profusely, my heart pounding erratically against my chest. My hands were shaking uncontrollably and I held my pillow close to my chest to clam my nerves. I had heard it. There was no doubt in it. A loud, high-pitched shriek, which sounded nothing like a human cry. It was surreal, making a shiver to creep up my spine. I twisted my hands together in nervousness, and murmured a prayer to god. The ghostly sound had resonated from beneath my bed. I had read way too many horror stories to not be scared by now. My throat felt dry and parched and I longed for a sip of water. But I had to go downstairs to fetch the jug. That meant I had to get down from my bed. And there was no way I would do that. Not now, when I was literally scared to death. I swallowed hard. My breathing had slowed down a bit but my heartbeat was still erratic. I perked up my ears and waited to see if the shrieks continued. I badly wanted to cover myself with my blanket but I was too scared to move an inch. I waited for about a minute and could hear no sound. This eased me a bit. Just when I mustered the courage to lie back down and go back to sleep, I felt a shadow whisk past me, sending the curtains flying. I brought my hands to my mouth to stop myself from crying out in terror. It was the silhouette of a girl, a tall, slender figure that I was sure by now was somewhere around me. I felt my eyes brimming with tears but I held my cries back. It was when the shadow reappeared, this time closer to me, near my nightstand. And before I could register what was happening or cry out loud for help, the figure advanced towards me, and all of a sudden, held me in a death grip. I felt myself being choked so tightly that no sound was escaping my mouth, black dots swimming in my vision. Soon enough, I plunged into darkness. After what felt like hours, I opened my eyes to be greeted with the golden rays of the sun streaming in through the window near my bed. I had a slightly blurry memory of yesterday night. I felt around my surroundings, and was met by relief when I could feel the blankets and my pillow beside me. Overjoyed by the fact that I was safe, and that it all had been just a silly nightmare, I thanked God and got out of bed to start my day.
