Don't answer it

    by: Jeff
You ignore the phone, and go about your daily routine. If it's important, whoever it is will call back.

Your day continues uneventfully, until you close up the office and head for the elevator. You've just stepped on when someone else pushes in before the doors close.

It's the robber!

He pushes the emergency stop button on the elevator and turns to you.

"I tried calling this morning, but you didn't pick up."

"How did you..."

"Get out? It's not the first time I've posted bail, sweetheart. Now it's time to make good on my promise."

He moves in and you start to scream.

THE END.

You've come to the end of the story. You can:

  1. Step back to the previous chapter.
  2. Start reading the story from the beginning.
