His wife came back later. But there was a strange thing, she knocked at the door. Tom saw two more shapes behind her. Then he opened the door and saw there were two thieves with her. He fought with them, but he couldn't win, and then the thieves took them and put them in a closet.
The thieves stayed in the house all the night and Tom and his wife cried and shouted all the time.
The next morning the thieves killed the couple, took the valuable things, and then they went to another house. ]]> 2018-05-16 17:32:31 UTC https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/261318820 Under the Same Roof https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/261326890 One afternoon, a week ago, Tom came home after work and he was very surprised because he saw a man standing outside his home.
Tom didn't know the man, but he thought he was waiting for someone. Anyway, he came inside and waited for his wife.
His wife, Alison, came back late and Tom was waiting for her to prepare dinner. After that, they watched television as usual. He didn't mention anything about the man outside the house because he thought it wasn't important.
That night they couldn't sleep because of loud noises and Alison went downstairs while she was waiting for his husband to fall asleep.
After 30 minutes she let the man came inside the house, and then they went to another bedroom and spent the night together. Alison and her lover didn't wake up early in the morning. Tom woke up alone and started to look for his wife. He went downstairs and he discovered them sleeping together.
He asked his wife who  the man was and she told him that he was her lover and she really felt sorry, but she loved both of them. Tom understood what his wife was saying and he thought that the best idea was that the three of them moved to a bigger house. So, the next morning they all moved to a different neighborhood.]]> 2018-05-16 17:49:48 UTC https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/261326890 An Ordinary Day? https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/261396659 One day in April, in an overpopulated city in an ordinary house, an ordinary man called Tom was living a normal life with his lovely wife, until everything changed.
Tom came home after work and started his everyday routine. He started washing his hands and getting hiself comfortable. When his wife came back home, they had dinner and when they were watching television, she remembered something. She stood up and went to look for a bag and came back with a strange  book. She told him that someone had given it to her.That person had also said that she should be careful with it. Tom started laughing and tried to persuade her that nothing was going to happen. To prove that, she took the book and started reading out some sentences when, suddenly, the lights went out and strange noises came all around the house. When the lights came back, his wife was possesed by a spirit. He didn´t know what to do, so he tried to talk to her but that didn´t work. He started reading the book to try to get rid of the spirit who was inside his wife, while his wife went to search for a knife without the man noticing she had left the room, and then she came back and killed him.

We rented a small cabin in the middle of nowhere; next to it there was a lake. When we got there, the owner of the cabin told us that there was no wi-fi, or TV, or mobile phone signal, the only way of communication with the outside world was through a landline. However, he told us that the phone was out of order. When he left, my friends and I went to swim in the lake. Later, when it got dark, we decided to go back to the cabin and started a bonfire. We all sat around it, and one of my friends started telling us a story he heard about this cabin.
Apparently, a family who had spent their vacation in the cabin had been murdered by their youngest son, and right before he murdered his family, he had answered a phone call. Before my friend finished telling us the story, all of a sudden, the phone rang.

Everything was dark. I got up and walked. Feeling the wall, looking for some buttom, I touched the curtains and then...'click'. The moment I could see where I was, I started to cry because I was in my house, but everything was dirty and broken.
 I couldn't remember anything and I didn't know why! 'It must have been a hard night,' I thought.
 I was scared, memories that I didn't remember started to flood back but I knew that they had happened; I tried to forget, but they came flooding back more and more. Until someone knocked at the door, but when I opened the door, there wasn't anyone. At that moment the lights started to turn on and off.
 When I woke up, I realised that everything had been a dream. And then, the phone rang.]]> 2018-06-08 19:58:32 UTC https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/266364841 A Lucky Break https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/266374328 It was April 12th of 1847, the day had arrived. I would become the greatest physicist in the world. The day that my experimental machine would work. I had been working on this all my life. It was finished, everything was in its place. So I started it. The lever activated the ball, which rolled along the wooden plank, fell on the button, let the hamster out of its cage, which activated the electricity with its hamster wheel, charged the battery, and all these had to make the phone ring. But, regrettably, something was wrong. The last step did not work. It was so close... I was very disappointed, I had wasted my life on a stupid machine that didn't work. Feeling angry, I took my clothes and books, and went out. I slammed the door shut, with a force so great that I heard something fall into the machine which, suddenly,  continued working. I felt confused, I couldn't believe what was happening. I went back to see it, and then the phone rang.]]> 2018-06-08 21:49:19 UTC https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/266374328 Everything was normal https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/266506764 One night, John, Andrew's son, went to a party with his friends. Everything was normal, they went there by taxi. Andrew received a message from John. John was telling his dad that he had arrived at the party. Andrew didn't worry about his son because he knew that his son was at the party. He went to his bed, but he wanted to read a book, so he took a science fiction book and began to read.
Andrew fell asleep and he started to dream. In his dream, Andrew's mobile started to ring, he answered and it was the man on the mobile. That man said to Andrew that his son was being kidnapped and if he wanted to see his son again, he must pay £100 000. Andrew told the man that he didn't have that money and asked if there was another option, because he didn't want to lose his son, but the man hung up.
Later, when he had already woken up, he realized that it was only a dream. But then, the mobile rang.]]> 2018-06-10 22:23:20 UTC https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/266506764 Who is guilty? https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/266911099 Frederic moved to London from Canada to study at University. He'd been living alone for seven months. His life was very nice. He had friends, a boyfriend, a dog and he was very good at University. But strange things started to happen.  
Those strange things made Frederic feel worried and sometimes, scared: he used to hear people whispering on his ears, he used to feel that someone (a ghost probably) was looking at him at night. Frederic suffered those kinds of things for a while and then decided to call a parapsychologist to analize the phenomenon inside the house. 
This parapsychologist who specialized in weird events said to Frederic that the house was free of any ghost or demon, and that probably, Frederic was stressed out and he had imagined everything. But the man gave Frederic his phone number, and he said "just in case". Frederic promised to call him if something weird happened again.  
After three weeks, the parapsychologist hadn't received any call from Frederic, so he just decided to forget that case. While he was having breakfast, drinking coffee and reading the newspaper, he saw an entire section from the local newspaper dedicated to Frederic: the young guy had jumped into the river near his house, and he had drowned. There was no explanation. The parapsychologist was very shocked. And then the phone rang... ]]> 2018-06-12 22:46:05 UTC https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/266911099 The kid https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/267053273 In a normal day in 3018, when people only cared about money and pleasure, where no-one cared about others, a very special kid was born. We can say that this kid would be the one who decided our future.
This kid wasn't like everyone else, he was helpful, kind and hard working. His name was Jimin and he could see the future. While he was growing up, he had a lot of problems because of his powers, in spite of this, he never lost his happiness or even his kindness. 
When he became a man, the government contacted him. It was top secret information, so they asked him to go to the CIA main building to talk about it.
When he arrived, they told him that they knew about his powers and, also, they told him that they needed him, beccause something had made contact with humans, but none of them knew how to speak whit them.
So Jimin's task would be to take the alien's call and with his powers, say the correct words to avoid being killed. When they ended this conversation, they went to the call room, and then the phone rang...]]> 2018-06-13 16:50:06 UTC https://padlet.com/sbgargiulo/J5BMa2018/wish/267053273
