Writing Prompt: “I’m in trouble”, entry posted by thepavsalford
Hello, dear Freewriters!
How are you doing?
This is my entry to the Writing Prompt by @mariannewest for 26 June 2026, Freewriters Community Daily Writing Prompt Day 3146: I’m in trouble.
The man looked over his shoulder and saw a big crowd of people running towards him, screaming and yelling, and clenching their fists in the air.
“Oh, my God!”, he said in a trembling voice. “If all these people are chasing me, I think I’m in trouble. In big trouble!”.
So he started running for his life, while the mob behind him was getting closer by the minute.
He could now hear the crowd’s yells more clearly than before, and he tried to understand the mixed words of these angry people who were screaming.
“Don’t let the thief get away! Catch him and punish him!”.
The man realized that they were trying to catch a thief who wanted to escape, and that was the reason why they were so angry.
All of a sudden, he saw a another male figure a few hundred meters ahead of him who was also running and panting like mad.
And then, the man stopped, and let the crowd reach and get past him.
They didn’t even notice him, as they carried on running after the thief who was trying to escape, but in vain!
