Personal short story

HI,
For the first assigment of the I.S.P I’m writting the short personal story. My story is about a Christmas dinner I had in my house.


It was three years ago in my house, when with all my mother’s relatives we were celebrating The Christmas dinner. It was a normal dinner; we were sitting near the big Christmas three, eating the typical food of the occasion, having a good time, sharing with the family. Suddenly while everybody was eating their dinner, it was quite, and we heard a really particular melody, it seemed to be from outside the house and it was like the sound of a couple of bells. They rang quite loud, but nobody knew exactly what they were. We really didn’t care too much about it. So the dinner continued normal.
Then when it was about to finish and everyone was saying goodbye, I was at the dining room helping my mother to clean up and I clearly saw how a little child, completely dressed with white clothes, jumped off from the fourth step of the stairs and left running. I was not the only one who saw the kid, some of my aunts and my grandmother also watched him. My relatives, and me we didn’t know who was he, we were sure about he wasn’t one of my little cousins, he looked different, he was a stranger, but I didn’t feel scared about him. It was Christmas after all. Days later I went to visit her, and she told me that she had investigated about what I told her hear a bell ringing means that and angel is coming.

So far, I don’t know who was that “child” I saw jumping off from my stairs, but this is a true story and I’m sure that I didn’t hallucinate it because other people saw him too. Maybe I will never figure out who was the kid, but I like the idea of that he was an angel.
