  1. It happened last Sunday. I was walking back home from the mall when a weird stranger came up to me asking to borrow my smartphone, as his own had died. Suddenly, his phone rang, and I realised the guy cheated on me and just wanted to steal my phone. I frowned and refused to give him mine. He got mad and held up a knife threatening me and telling me to give him my wallet and all the stuff I had. Although I was absolutely terrified with the sight of the knife in his hands, I decided not to give up. I slowly took off my handbag as if I was going to give him my wallet. I put my hand into it and found a can of cola inside. I grabbed it, and then all of a sudden I threw it right into the mugger's face. He didn't expect to be confronted like that and could barely escape the hit of the can. I used this chance to dash to the nearest shop for my safety. There I called the police.

  1. It was late at night, two days before Christmas, when this happened. I had trouble sleeping then and was entertaining myself watching TV in my room upstairs. Suddenly, I heard some eerie sound from below. At first, I thought it was my imagination. It was past midnight, and I'd been watching horror movies. But the sound didn't stop. So, I pulled myself together and tiptoed downstairs to the living room. The sound grew louder. I didn't realise it was coming from the front door until it was too late. Two spooky figures suddenly blew the door open and rushed into the house. In the dim light of the Christmas tree and light strings, I saw they were wearing dark hoodies and black facemasks. I was immobilised with fear. They didn't notice me, as I was standing in the shadow. One of them started ransacking the room for anything worthy while the other one was the lookout guy. When one of them was turning upside down the stuff on the mantelpiece, they accidentally tore off one of the light strings which immediately made a harsh electric sound and exploded. The light in all of the house went off. But then it got even worse. Something suddenly flashed in the darkness, and just in no time the fire broke out. I screamed and the strangers, startled, dashed out of the house.
