The Coat

It was cold; I was walking to the lame store I worked at. My ex-girlfriend was recently murdered and I couldn't help wonder who killed her. As I walked, I saw the bridge my father and I used to walk across. It was really misty, but I swear I saw a shadow on that broken-down bridge. I passed it off as my crazy imagination.

As I got to the store, I noticed a coat. It was beaten, torn up, and ragged. I picked it up and worked at that terrible store, dealing with customers and the usual tedious stuff. My shift ended at 8:00 and it was 7:45, so I clocked out early. I put on the coat since it was still cold and misty.

I really don't have much of a life, just play video games and screw around. I loved resident evil as a kid, I still remember my mom freaking out as I shot and decapitated a zombie. I still own my PS1 (PlayStation), so I popped it in and had a grand old time. I heard a knock at the door, as I opened it, no one was there. Oh well, I just played more of my game and another knock came, so again, I got up and opened it. I was getting pissed. I played for maybe two hours and beat it. The coat I was wearing was getting warm, so I took it off. It was at least 1:00 AM, so I went to bed.

I woke up to a large bang, so I shot out of and looked to see what it could've been. My girlfriend, Kate, was bleeding, "Whoa! What the hell happened to you?" She said it was a body shape; I grabbed my gun my grandpa gave to me, the colt python. I saw a body shape, I shot it, but it just knocked me down as it went for my girlfriend. I shot the figure in the head, and what I saw on the bridge finally made sense.

The shadow on the bridge was my dead ex-girlfriend.
