Example of promising story introduction.

 

I was all alone. The time sped by. I didn’t know what was the time-neither did I care. I sat waiting in the waiting room of the train station. The guard came and went, asked me several times of my train time. When I didn’t respond—he took me for a deaf person. The trains came and went. But none of them were the one I was waiting for. Though I knew that train would never come, I sat waiting like a mad person.  Soon all the seats were empty and the waiting room was abandoned and along with the crowd went my hope of ever seeing my brother again.
