Counting Down! By Leah

Tick,Tick, Tick.
The noise drummed in my ears.
Tick,Tick,Tick.
It was almost as though I was transfixed. My eyes were glued to the numbers as they changed slowly.
My mind raced as there was only one minute left. Thirty seconds, inside my head my brain felt like it was about to burst.
My palms were dripping with sweat.
3, 2, 1.
I screamed out with terror. BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
"Leah get up and turn that alarm off.''
"Yes Mum."
It was the start of a brand new day.
