Weekly Story Writing Competition - Week 3 Results and Week 4 New Challenges

Hello friends,

How are you all? I hope that by the grace of Allah, you are all well and healthy. I am also well with your prayers.

When I was writing the post last week, I was a little sad because the number of participants in the competition was very low. But this week you really surprised me! Breaking the silence of last week, you have presented great stories. I am very happy to see that the competition has come back to life again.

Many thanks to all those who took the time to share their creativity. It was quite difficult to choose the winner from so many wonderful stories. Still, according to the rules, the best three had to be chosen. So, without further delay, let's announce the results of last week and move on to the plot of this week's new exciting story.

📝 Weekly Story Writing Contest - Week 4/The Mysterious Key

Since you showed great enthusiasm last week, we want to continue that trend this week as well. This time, we've brought you something a little more mysterious. Expand your imagination a little more.

This week's topic or theme is: "The Mysterious Key."

As always, I am writing the beginning of the story; the rest is up to you to finish. Although the beginning of this time seems simple, the ending could be spooky, a fantasy, ora thriller.

The beginning of the story 👇

"It was almost 12 o'clock at night. The surroundings were quiet. Akash took the deserted road of the park to take a shortcut on his way back from the office. While walking, something suddenly touched his foot. He looked down and saw an old, rusty, and strange-looking key lying on the road. A note was attached to the key, which was written in red ink - 'Don't go home tonight.' Akash thought it might be someone's prank or joke. He smiled, put the key in his pocket, and walked towards the house. But as soon as he reached the main gate of his flat, he froze. The rusty key in his pocket suddenly started shaking..."

Wow! You have to start from here. Why was the key shaking? What was waiting in the sky flat or at the gate? Who wrote that note? You can make the whole story your own.
