A Deathly Fear

One woman named Irene felt uneasy as she drove onto the High Street, seeking an ATM to withdraw funds for a plumber she recently hired. The area was desolate, with few people and boarded-up shops. As she walked to the cash machine, she noticed a group of men loitering nearby and another gathering outside a pub. Despite her fears, she decided to withdraw the cash.

Upon approaching the machine, she held her breath, fearing the worst. Suddenly, someone tapped her shoulder, sending a wave of terror through her. She screamed, dropped her purse, and shielded herself, realizing her money was spilling out. Her sister appeared and informed her that her husband had been concerned about her, urging her sister to check on her.
