When doing my rounds sweeping the hallways I noticed that the locker was still open. I approached the locker as I was headed up the hall sweeping. I peeked in the locker, but there was nothing in it, but why then was it open two nights in a row? At that moment I felt a cold draft surround me, then a whisper. "Just want to keep you company while you clean for you do such a good job and you seem a little lonely." I continued down the hallway to finish up before I check classrooms for trash. Moving on....

The Crime
One night when walking down the halls of the high school I clean, I noticed an open locker. I wondered why a locker would be open now. There is a basketball game tonight, but nobody is allowed past the gate now. I walked to the gate, and it was slightly ajar. Now how did that happen for it seemed to be jimmied a little. Who would do this? I went back to the open locker and wrote the number down and also that a gate to the hall was jimmied. I took the note placed it on the principal's desk

There's A Hole in My Bucket
It’s a well-known fact that Liza Dufresne was always the brains in the family. She was the one who always came up with the brilliant schemes the Dufresne kids carried out when they were younger. Like when they tricked Mrs. Claybourn into paying for a trip to Disney World. Liza convinced her that their parents had been kidnapped and were being held for ransom for the total price of three tickets. In reality, they were away on a weekend getaway for their anniversary. When they returned, Liza told the Claybourns that they did not like to talk about the ordeal. Their parents never found out how they got the money. Mrs. Claybourn never found out that the Dufresne parents were never really in any danger.

A Quandary in Quarantine
Chapter Seventeen Eliisa had me cornered, literally. The way she sat, with her back to the door, quite effectively blocked my ability to get out without her realizing I was leaving. I felt for my phone, which was still in my back pocket. If I could just get a call through to Drew ay the police station without Eliisa noticing or overhearing, I could alert him to what I had found out. I casually pulled out my phone, and held it against my side while I kept an eye on Eliisa.

Oh, a little creepiness is happening!
I too would run and never gone back🤔😊🖊️🏆🏆🏆
I would've just left the broom or sweeper and ran. That thing, whatever it was, sounded creepy. But the braveness that I see here would've never been mine to display. I like that we get a bit of reveal through each one of these drabble. 👌🏾❤️
