The hearse with the weird odor slowed to a stop before the entrance. The sound of pebbles could be heard bouncing on the ceiling. There were footsteps coming from the corridor, and there seemed to be someone sawing next door. The door knob to the room rattled slightly, and the faucet in the bathroom kept dripping even though it had been screwed shut. There was a rubber ball that rolled on its own underneath the bed. Wet footsteps started to surface one after another on the floor. At 3 am, Chen Ge held a cleaver in his hand as he hid beside the room heater. The call he was trying to make was finally answered.

Shameless Author here with a shameless review. This is my entry into the Writing Formula Practice #15 - Parenthood. I had initially not planned on joining this writing contest, but the longer the contest ran, the more my mind convinced me what a good idea it would be to participate. As such, I decided to write an entry. I hope you will give it a chance and try it out! Thank you! Tinalynge
