Today I Walked Through a Hallway

It was well lit for a very cloudy day. The hallway was fairly empty since students were having their classes. Occasionally I would hear laughter from a certain classroom, then the muffled room noise from another. When the silence settled in, it prompted me to find a spot for me to settle down and do my work.

Just then, I stared at the empty hallway and noticed another hallway turning to one side. It made me think; I said to myself that today, I might see a kid peeking behind the wall. Or a cat coming out from the hallway. Or a dirty woman with messy clothes limping towards me. Or maybe,  an old man, probably a war veteran, asking for help. Anything could come out from there, I thought.

I wondered what I'd do if I'd actually see those kinds of things.  Would I just stare? Would I scream? Run away? One thing's for sure; I didn't see them that day.

I wonder what would happen if I passed another hallway.
