#7 - The White Tiger
Over the sound of my own footsteps, I realized I could hear another set, almost in time. It wasn’t unusual; this part of the city was filled with houses and there was nearly always someone else on the street. Something in the night, though, started a small cold fire of fear in my heart, caused me to walk a little faster. My footsteps echoed off the buildings nearby, and I realized that whoever was behind me was walking a little faster as well...
A standalone modern-day fantasy story. A boy goes through some mementoes with his grandfather, and discovers that someone may be watching over him. Mild spookiness.
I would love to collaborate with you! If you have short fiction that you would like me to include as a standalone episode of Pocket Fiction, drop me a line!
This episode is also available as a video on YouTube, and on the iTunes store!
Thanks for watching/listening! Ideas? Suggestions? Things you would like me to read? Please comment and subscribe!
