One day, I went back home after I went to my friend's house. It was 11:00 o’clock, night had fallen down everywhere. The road leading to her house is quite long and special absent after 8:00. It was only the rustling of leaves and the creepy call of a night owl.
It made me feel really scared. After walking 10 minutes, I saw a man with an umbrella. With my self-destructive curiosity, I approached that man. Then, he turned his face to me and I saw his eyes with a lot of blood! He said: “come here, come here, girl!”. I am so scared and run away. When I run, I turn my face to watch him, I said: “He was so scary, I need to run faster!!” When I turned back, I saw him in front of me. He caught my hand, I can feel those slender fingers and those iron nails digging into my shoulder blades painfully. I can also feel a deep voice whispering close to my ear. Now, my fear has reached the point, the tears are like pearls falling down. I hope this is just a dream, a horrible illusion, but no, I can see everything so real. “Please! Don’t touch me! Forgive me!”
“Charlotte! Charlotte! Are you here?”
My...my mum's voice!
“Mum. Mum… Help, help me!!”
My mum ran to me.
“Why don’t you go home?”
“I...I just met a man”
I pointed to the place the man was standing but it was just an empty space, where is the man? He had disappeared.
“Darling, where is that man?”
“Oh. He's just here!”
“I think you’re too tired to give birth to hallucinations”
Maybe, I think so too. How can there be ghosts in the world? What's wrong with my eyes today?
“You can’t escape me”
The man who smiled to his ears was full of horror.
Half past eleven, I went to bed. About the thing that happened 30 minutes ago, I was not afraid anymore, I just thought that my eyes had a problem or it was just a trick of somebody. Sure! I curled up in the blanket and closed my eyes, I slowly fell asleep. In my dream, I was suddenly awakened by the sound of footsteps creaking on the wooden floor. I was awake but I still closed my eyes. What was that weird noise? Where was it from? Was it my mum's footsteps or some weird thing just appeared in my house? Hundreds of questions appeared in my brain. Abruptly, the blanket was pulled away.
“AA!!!!!”
The man I had met. He smiled at me, a scared smiling.
THE END!!!!!!!
