I went into the night
I went into the night
I went into the night
‘Can I have a light,sir?’Japanese SwordsI asked.
‘No,’he said sharply.‘No lights in my house!’ ‘Very well,sir.Are the stairs good?’
I went into the night
‘They're grand,’ said he.‘The stairs are grand.Out I went into the night.As I was feeling my way along the outside wall,there was a sudden flash of lightning,then darkness again.I found the stairs and started climbing.I was about fifteen metres above the ground,when there was another flash of lightning.That was lucky for me,because it showed me that the steps were uneven, and that I could easily fall to my death.‘These are the grand stairs!’I thought.‘Perhaps my uncle wants me to die!’Now I was very careful,and I felt each step with my hands before I put my foot on it.A few steps later my hand felt cold stone,and then nothing more.The stairs ended there,twenty metres above the ground.I felt cold with fear,when I thought of the danger that I had been in.Sending a stranger up those stairs in the dark was sending him straight to his death.
Angrily,I turned and felt my way down.There was a crash of thunder,and suddenly the rain came down.At the bottom of the stairs I looked towards the kitchen,and could see,in the next flash of lightning,a figure standing still in the doorway,listening. When the thunder sounded again,louder than before,he ran back inside,and I followed as softly as I could.I found him sitting in the kitchen,DVD Ripper,drinking whisky straight from the bottle,and shaking with fear.Quietly I came up behind him,Japanese Swordsand,putting my hands sud denly on his shoulders,cried,‘Ah!’
