The Addams Family: A Narrative Fiction
I was sitting at home on a rainy Saturday evening. Lightning struck while I was watching The Addams Family, the house grew quieter. My parents entered the room and told me that they were going to the bank. The door slammed shut, and silence pervaded the house. I worried as they. I had waited several days for them to come home. Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and I leaped to get the door. To my surprise, Uncle Toby stood in the darkness before me, drenched from the storm.
