'The Clown' written by Ayesha Alam.

A car was parked in the garage of a huge house on a rainy stormy night. Anna entered the house and shouted "I'm home Felix", to her brother who was busy playing video games.

She changed her clothes , took some hot coco and started to do work on her laptop.

While she was working she got a message saying ,

"I can see u".

She thought it was a prank and ignored it.

But again,she recieved the same message with a pic of her sitting on the table and doing work. When she located the pic that from where it had been taken, it was taken from

behind the curtain. Anna called out to Felix ,

"There is someone inside the house, get down here".

But her brother didn't care to bother. Anna started to advance towards the curtain. She could feel the fear rising inside her. As she opened the curtain , a clown standing behind it said , "BOO!" , and stabbed her. She screamed and scurried. Hearing the screams,Felix came down and started to fight the clown. On the otherhand , Anna had lost a lot of blood. Felix managed to stab the clown , pick his sister up and drove to the hospital.

"She has lost alot of blood but she's okay", said the doctor. As she was in the hospital , Felix went to the police station and got to know that the clown was a serial killer,he always leaves the victim dead and the police had been in search of him for a long time.

He went back to the hospital and told everything to Anna. She had coulrophobia.

Just then another doctor came in the room and told the the doctor who was checking Anna suddenly had a heart attack and that he will take care of Anna. Anna felt very strange about what the doctor had said. As Felix left the room the doctor told Anna that she had to come visit him again by tommorrow at a clinic. She asked,"Why can't I come in the hospital?". He replied that hospital will remain close due to some reason. He gave the location of the clinic. The next day, she and Felix went to the clinic. It was a strange place ,there was two-three house which were far apart from each other and only a few people were nearby. As they entered the clinic , the doctor was sitting on a chair with his back facing both of them. Anna told him to start the checkup and as he turned his face towards them , the both were shocked to see that the doctor was actually the clown. Felix and he had a fiersome fight . Meanwhile , Anna called the police just in time. At that time she was so horrified and scared that she fainted.

When the police came they saw Anna on the floor and the clown and Felix fight. They arrested the clown snd sent the sibilings to the hospital. Felix wokeup early( he had small brusises), he asked where is his sister but the doctor said nothing. He took him to a room and he was shocked to see that his sister was crying and saying that everyone is a clown.

The doctor said," She is a psycopath now, because of her fear towards clowns made her a psyco but with lot of time she will be cured". The brother cried and shreded alot of tears.

( THREE YEARS LATER)

Felix was happily married and had hired good and expert doctors to take care of Anna. Felix became a successful business man and Anna slowly recovered.

( ONE YEAR LATER)

Anna fully recovered and got married as well. Both of them were now living a happy life. And , as for the clown he was sentenced to death. What nobody knew was that he a brother who wanted to take revenge from Anna and Felix for his brother's death.

Anna's husband had been out of city for work. One night when she was sleeping a man walked towards her and had a knife and said :

"Hi Anna".🔪

"AAAAAAHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAA ..........." , Anna screamed and her brother and sister-in-law wokeup (who were there to stay for a while)

When they came inside they saw that Anna was bleeding and the window was open. They placed Anna inside the car and Felix and his wife , Samantha , went inside the house to get the car keys and some bandages. What Anna , Felix and Samantha didn't notice was that the clown2 was inside the car. As he saw that they both have gone , he stabbed Anna again. Anna screamed and hearing the screams , Felix and Samantha rushed down and threw the clown 2 outside. Felix started the car and at a high speed he drove to the hospital.

Anna was admitted in the hospital in emergency and in the mean time Samantha called Anna's husband and told everything that had happended. Felix was sitting on a bench, both , worried and cofused.

" Why are you looking so confused Felix ? ",

said Samantha. "Im wondering that the clown was sentenced to death and he was excecuted , then who is this clown that tried to kill my sister ? ", said Felix.

" Yeah who could be ? Wait is this new clown a relative or close one of the old clown who is taking revenge?", said Samantha.

"Anna's dead", said the doctor. They both burst into tears. Felix rememered all the things he did with her.
