best short stories to write a paper about

As I turned a corner, I was faced with just another empty road in the middle of nowhere.

There was nothing and no-one I could see that would help me. The lane was like a river, and the water was already up to my ankles, I began to get very frightened. The only thing I could do was walk through the ferocious weather to try and find some shelter…I had no other choice. Shielding my eyes from the stinging rain, I searched the area for another car, a phone box, a house lit by friendly lights but could see nothing. Sighing, I dragged my raincoat off the back seat and stepped out into the raging storm. My heart sank when I checked my phone and saw that I had no signal. The rain began to hammer down when my car finally died, and the sky was cut by lightning. My car had been making a clanking sound for the last 10 miles and I knew it wouldn’t last much longer. The sky was black with clouds as I drove down the lonely country lane, suffocated by the high hedges on either side.
