The Dance :: essays research papers

THE DANCEIt was a dark, stormy darkness and Stacey Browning was just finishing work at The guide Stump Burger Barn. It wasnt a busy night, so Stacy suggested that her heavily significant boss, Sarah, leave work early, and Stacey would clean and lock up. Stacey was trying to stretch her night out for as long as possible, because tomorrow night was the instruct spring, and she knew her mother wouldnt make her go if she was too tired from a hard night at work. Stacey loathed the school dance because it was a dance only enjoyed by cool, popular, beautiful people, and Stacey was not one of them.At ten-thirty, Stacey sported off the lights in the building, locked the big, glass doors and stepped into the cold, dark night. She decided not to ring her mother and ask to be picked up, because it was only a forgetful walk home and she felt guilty about waking her at such a late hour on such a cold night. Stacey was only just out of the driveway of the restaurant, when she realised she had go away her purse in the building. She quickly walked back, unlocked the doors, and turned on the lights. She walked into the kitchens to locution for her purse. While she was in there, she heard the doors open and the service bell ring. "Sorry, were closed," Stacey called, as she walked out of the kitchens. She looked around the restaurant, and no-one was there. "They must of left," she thought. As she was about to turn off the lights, Stacey felt a cold shiver. "I knew I forgot something else," Stacey mumbled as she walked over to the air-conditioning unit to turn it off, but it was already off. She stood there fox for a moment, then walked back to the light switch, trying to think if she had forgotten anything else. With out warning a gust of wind blew the doors open, and circled in the shopping mall of the restaurant. A woman appeared in the middle of the wind. She looked young, in her late twenties, dressed to the nines(p) in a white gown which covered her whole body, ask out her eyes.Stacy stepped back shocked and stuttered "W-wwho are y-y-you?" "I am here to attend to you," the woman said, with a strong foreign accent. "You are worried about the dance?" she said."Yes, I am." Stacey replied.
