I will tell you this experience I had at the age of 36. It is one of my deepest and strangest secrets I’ve ever had. I also trust that you do not repeat this to anyone because I was threatened to keep this secret and only repeat it when you are in the same situation as I. It was the year 1898 in New York City. This was in my old and tiny apartment on Wall Street. It was a busy day, as usual, and I had decided to take the day off at my job as the editor of the Wall Street Journal. But the reason I stayed in my apartment was because Susan had just left me for another man. And so, I turned to the bottle and tried to drink my sorrows away. I remembered how the whiskey just called for him. I remember the conversation we had. We have been arguing …show more content…

and it was a gloomy day and it rained like cats and dogs and lightning danced across the sky.Susan just walked in the door.

As I was waking up, I thought to myself that that was a crazy dream I just had and everything was destroyed as in my so called dream. So, I called the police and they I told them the whole story and they thought that I was lying the whole time and they didn't even come, but I knew that it was some sort of alien. But after a week, I was prepared for the next episode that happened, if it ever came back again. I had always carried a .22 revolver with me in case it ever came back. But, it hadn’t come in about two weeks. I was eating supper and I was eating roast beef and mashed potatoes and the thing came back. So, I went for my revolver, but it was jammed so I threw the gun at the thing but missed. I grabbed a chair and swung twice, and both missed. The third time I swung as hard as I could and everything stopped. I hit it and it stopped moving. There was just wood everywhere and there was just this lump under the rug.
