phone

The phone rang.
A cold dread clutched her heart.
This was the third consecutive night , she had been getting these blank calls. She was alone in the house with her two kids; her husband away on official tour; and someone knew.
Some one with the temerity to call her up in the middle of the night, and breathe heavily into the phone when answered.
Who could it be? and why?
She banged the receiver down and stood at the first floor window, parting the curtains just a wee bit to see the ghostly lawn awash with silvery moonlight.
A silent dark shape loomed right beneath her window, and the phone rang again………
