Horror And Mystery Stories
darkened

Every night I see him standing at my doorstep. His shadow from the bottom of the door. Just shut up, he didn't do anything. I think he's watching me from the keyhole. Seeing until I let my guard down and he would attack me was the same as what he did to my parents. I just curled up on the bed and pulled the blanket over to cover my head, awake until morning.

“ Hey, looks like you got less sleep again”

“ Yes, I did not sleep at all. Last night the creature asked me”

“ The creature again, how many times have I said all just your delusion just”

“ Is the death of my parents also just such a delusion?” My grunt is upset

“ That's not what I mean but..hey where are you going?”

I immediately left Karin walking towards the canteen. Every time I talk about that thing Karin never believes it. Who I'm going to tell. To Rama ? ah of course not. He was the only person close to me.

Tonight I went into my room at 9. I was so tired, how could I not sleep for three days in a row. That thing has made me dare not close my eyes. Mom and Dad must have felt the same way before death. I put my body down and closed my eyes. But I saw a shadow under the door. The creature came again. His heavy sighs as well as his growls were clearly heard from behind the door. Oh my God, until when will this end. I don't sleep tonight anymore. I dare not leave the room. Even just calling someone for help I can't. I was afraid he knew and got angry and attacked me. Who will believe me anyway. As usual I just froze on the bed waiting until morning came.

I have not slept for four days. My head feels so dizzy. I decided not to go to college today. Tok.tok heard the knocking of the door. With a somersault I walked down the stairs to open the door.

“ Rene, what's wrong with you? You look so messed up” Rama immediately hugged me tightly.

“ Karin says you haven't slept in the last few days, what's up baby? Rama let go of his embrace and looked at me worriedly. Rama is my girlfriend, we've been in a relationship for a month. But I don't actually have any feelings for him. I just think of him as a sister.

“ If I tell you will you believe? And don't you already know what my problem is?”

“ You didn't sleep because you felt something was asking you”

“ Not feel but it really is so!!”

“ Okay darling, if so sleep I will take care of you here”

“ You promise?” Manya make sure.

I think it's time for me to take a break. There was Rama who accompanied me here. That's enough to give me a little sense of security. Although I have to check first before going to bed if there is a shadow under the door. Actually the creature only appears at night, but still I can not sleep if in my own circumstances. The clock shows at half-five in the afternoon when I wake up. I immediately went downstairs and saw Rama watching tv.

“ Are you awake, baby? How are you doing now?”

“ Better” My answer was short and then sat next to it.

“ Why don't you get out of this house, you can make”

“ No Ram, I love this house. So many memories happened here with dad and mom”

“ Then what about the creature that often bothers you?”

“ I don't know, for sure I will try to survive here”

“ Alright, hmm.. Ren actually I really want to be with you tonight. But I still have work to finish. Later if I'm done I'll come here”

“ Nothing Ram. You've been with me enough all day. After you finish your work, rest. I'll be fine “ I know Rama loves me very much and worries about my circumstances. It was all visible from the look on his face when he was about to get out of my house.

Soon after night, a thrilling time will soon arrive after dinner, I immediately enter the room. I put my body on the bed looking under the door. It seems like the creature has not appeared yet. I kept watching and he came back. A cold chill mixed with fear enveloped me. A thought came to end all this. I took a pair of scissors in the drawer. I'm going out to kill him. 

Although I don't know what that creature is and whether it will be able to kill it with a human weapon, what's on my mind right now is that creature or I'm dead. I got out of bed slowly. I heard the sound of his growling clearer. Apparently he knew I was going to fight him. As much as I can fight that fear, however, the creature killed my parents. I hold the doorknob quickly I open the door of my room and I attack it with scissors to hold. His blood soaked both my hands. I smiled with satisfaction.

This morning the uniformed officers came to my house. They handcuffed my hands and took me to the car and they put me in a holding cell. I'm still confused as to what's wrong with me. They say I'm in jail for killing people. There was also a middle-aged woman who came to my cell and blasphemed me all out.

“ Killer base! Why did you kill my son!! Already from the beginning I forbade my son to be in contact with you and also to meet you that night.

Who killed his son, you crazy woman. The next day I saw Karin coming to see me. He was talking to one of the police. Then he looked at me. In the end I was freed from that thing. Yes at least I'm safe here. But where Rama has been here for two days I have never seen him visit me. Ah already.....
