She stood still for some time; then she raised her finger and
pointed towards the sky.
Everyone stopped and looked up. They could see
nothing but deep blue sky.
She shrieked and started trembling, “Its happening. Yes, it’s
happening.”
Everyone felt a scare. Everyone stood unsure of himself.
“There is something shinning in the sky, I see it over there,”
said a girl. She was behind the woman who kept repeating, “It’s happening.”
One by one people started moving away; everyone appeared apprehensive;
everyone expected something unseemly to happen.
The woman asked the girl, “Did I prove my point?”

I like the repetition in this. I'm not sure that the point is that she's proving, but I like it. (Do you need 'the' in front of 'woman' in the last line?

ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of an "I Love Lucy" episode where she and Ethel distracted people in an art gallery by staring up at the ceiling and appearing to see something amazing while Ricky and Fred put back a painting. :-) It works and not just in your story (but maybe not for Lucy!)
