ESL Writing 2

A Nightmare or a Reality
She suddenly woke up in a big scream. In the darkness, she felt to have a cold wind blowing to her breast. Laying her hand on the breast, she startled in a panic. Three buttons on her shirt was already opened. Quickly, she glanced at the door. It stilled was locked. Her cousin also lay on the bed and breath regularly. What happened to her? Why are the buttons taken off? Pulling the blanket up to her shoulder, she leaned against the wall. A horrible nightmare came into her mind. She remembered clearly that in the nightmare, she got lost to a strange village. When she came there, everyone closed their houses. They said that there was a ghost. She didn’t have enough time to calm before the door closed. Then, the ghost appeared. She ran, ran, and ran. The ghost chased her. Finally, it caught her and grabbed her to a cavern. She just screamed and was awaken when the ghost approach to her and opened buttons on her shirt. Was it a nightmare or a reality? She consoled herself. Maybe, it was just the nightmare. Maybe, she has watched many horror films. Now, they obsessed her. However, she still wondered who took off the buttons. She mumbled a chant in Buddha and gradually closed her eyes. She slept whenever she didn’t know. Outside, crows tragically bewailed.

  2. What an amazing story! I have never had a dream like that. Maybe, the reason is that I don't like to watch horror films.

  3. That's suspensable! I find it a little abstract, although the story is attracting. Are you using symbol to imply anything? Because I think that button is really symbolic.

  5. In my childhood, I dreamed about a strange story again and again. Years later, I told my mother my nightmare. She finally could explain me that something happened like that when I was only two years old.
