A pearl necklace broken.
Tears of the young kid on the streets flowing with the wind away from his face.
The father calling his son from his sleep.
Sirens of Ambulances chanting with sadness and desperation as they go to the victims
It is a tragedy just like a picture in black and white.
London is burning

He was walking down the street, looking at the windows, wondering what it might be behind them...
He saw an opened one and stopped a little to see what was going on. But he could not see anything inside, as the house was empty. He wondered why was it empty and why was the window opened? He knew that the owner of the house was outside the country for business and therefore took a closer look. "Oh my god, Maybe it was burgled" he thought. "Could it be? This man lives alone, he always has parties and I guess he's rich. Maybe he came back and took his stuffs. May be he moved into another house" He saw someone moving in, and decided to knock the door... After a while, he put his hands over the handle, and quietly... He opened the door. It was unlocked. He was confused... Should he shout and see if there's anybody in, or go out to call the police and look like a completely jerk? It was hard to decide, but he chose to go in. "Any body there?" he shouted. Nobody answered but he heard some movement...

Readers, it's up to you how to continue the story. No Guidelines. Good luck.

Akhtar was standing on the bridge and looking at the horizon he said to himself:

"Will I ever come back to this wonderful town?"

It has been five years since he left the land he was born, the land of his childhood. He wanted to become a civil engineer and so he did. He can still hear his late grandfather telling him:

"Education is a great gift, take advantage of it. However little lad, never forget your roots and keep seeking wisdom"

Since day one at the University, he has been missing his parents and his old friends. Now he finds it hard to return back.

"I have made new friends and embraced new cultures. This is the place I want to live in and yet I miss my old town so much. It's so confusing."

As he watched the sun set he said to himself

"What lies ahead of the horizon for me?"
