The devil under your bed By:Ritika Elenkovan



The devil under your bed
………………………………………………………………………………………………………

You know what I mean.


Getting into bed all cozy after yawning all day. The magical place where you suddenly remember everything you were supposed to do.


But there are some days which…. The temperature outside would be 85 degrees and you would be sleeping with heavy sheets thinking, tonight's the night I’ll get the best sleep. Yet at some point in time, you would wake up and you feel like you’re in The Sahara Desert. In addition to your madness, your fat cat decides to join the party and your leg starts dripping with sweat.


Blanket On: Too Hot Blanket Off: Too cold


You take off the sheets. Suddenly, you somehow get the feeling that there’s a demon under your bed. Well, you don’t want to risk your life getting butchered at 3AM so you contemplate on all safety procedures:



  • Is my sister across the hall?




  • Is my night lamp still on?




  • Do I have a hammer on my side table?


After eyeing every corner of the room, thinking that you’ll somehow spot A Translucent Figure, you slowly give in. Trusting the night lamp right next to your dresser to punch the “demon” with its light energy. Blinding the figures eyes. Eventually you’ll have….



One leg out: Perfect


You know then and there the best sleep is yet to come.


AWESOME!

  1. I like how you added questions in between some of the paragraphs. It's like you are questioning yourself.
