What is the first scary story about?
He lived with his Aunt Margaret, who seemed very strict to my eyes. He would make light of how she was tough on him, giving him curfews as if he were some little kid. But he was in his twenties. He would laugh about it, but I could tell it got to him. Margaret made him be home by 9pm every night, and she wasn't playing around.
What happened to Alex and his Aunt Margaret?
alex said that if he wasn't home on time she would either lock him out or threaten to call the police honestly sometimes it was hard to believe how can one be that strict with a full-grown man but then again alex was never in a mood to discuss that and neither did emily urge him to do so We just accepted it as one of those weird parts of his life.
How did Emily react to Alex's confession?
Even so, Alex spent a lot of time at Emily's place, and I was there most nights too. We had a good laugh together. We'd play cards, drink cheap beer, and make fun of each other. It was pretty much normal, and before long, Alex was pretty much a part of our little group. But every now and then, I would catch something.
What unsettling events occurred after Alex's confession?
Like how he'd suddenly go silent when anyone even mentioned Margaret's name, or how he always checked the clock, even if we were just lounging. I convinced myself it probably was nothing at all. Still, a small voice at the back of my head, I've since discovered, always asked, what if? Then came that one night. Emily and I were just beginning a new round of cards when Alex charged into the room It was like 9.30, way past when he was supposed to be home He looked rough, all messed up in the hair and kind of dirty in his clothes He had that look in his eyes, like he'd just gone through something He said he had gotten into a fight on the way over I do not know whether to believe him or not, but he was always getting into some kind of trouble, so we just shrugged it off. We started playing cards again, but it wasn't the same. Alex was acting weird. He laughed at things that weren't funny too loudly, and his hands wouldn't stop shaking when he picked up his cards. I tried to brush it off, but it was hard to ignore.
What was the second story's main theme?
I remember looking over at Emily, and she gave me this look back, like she was wondering the same thing I was. What was going on with Alex? Around midnight, Emily asked him about Margaret. She wanted to know if she was going to freak out since he wasn't home. Alex hesitated, then said Margaret was asleep. He said he'd snuck out, and she probably wouldn't even notice he was gone until morning. It made sense, I guess, so we didn't press it. We just kept playing, but the air felt heavy, like there was something none of us were saying. the rest of the night seemed to drag on forever i kept watching alex trying to figure out what was wrong with him he would smile but it never reached his eyes he kept looking at the door as if he was waiting for something to happen it made me feel on edge but i didn't say anything I just played my cards, laughed when everyone else did, and tried to ignore the knot in my stomach.
In retrospect, I wish I had trusted that feeling. Things might have been different if I had done so. The next day I went home, exhausted from staying late up with Emily and Alex. It had been a weird night, and something about Alex was gnawing at me no matter how much I was trying to shake it from my head. I did not really have much time to ponder it because my phone was ringing off the hook around noon. It was Emily. She sounded like she was falling apart. Jamie, you have to check the news. Now, she said, her voice shaking and thick with tears. I could hardly understand her, but the panic in her voice made me sit up straight. My hands fumbled as I pulled up the local news website.
