Dream of Darkness

Let's back to the story-

I got up from bed and walked towards the window. I saw a burnt body standing there, waving hand to me.

Bullshit, I hate this type of cat-and-rat relationship. If you want me then confront me. I don't even know what you had planned for me. Suddenly someone knocked on the door as if someone was trying to break down the door. Dad slightly opened his eyes and sat up.

"Honey",

" Dad, wait here. lemme see", I forced him to sit.

"No, you can't", Dad suddenly reacted badly.

I stood there and sighed. Dad, I can handle myself now. Why can't you believe me.

Dad took a iron stick and stopped in front of the door. Slowly that guy knocking on the door very loudly. Dad asked, "who?"

But no one said a word. Dad shouted,"Who is it?"

But slowly the sound subsided. I came near him and held his dad. I blinked my eyes to say him everything is okay, I'm with him.

I extended my hand to unlock the door. but dad was stopping me to not open.

"Dad please".

I opened the door despite his prohibition. I found no one and came out immediately.

" Erin, wait don't go", Dad called out me but I ignored. Because enough is enough. I have faith in myself and believe in God. If I have really something in me then I can protect me and dad. I'm not afraid of her evil things nor her.

I shouted,"Who the f@ck is it? come out and face us."

"Erin", Dad called me.

No one answered me. Only my words, only my words echoed in my ear and the barking of some dogs and the sound of some insects.

You have to face me today or tomorrow mom.

" Erin, my baby don't be angry. I think they were our neighbour kids", Dad tried to explain to me. But I know it's not.

I knew what was that. If my illusion isn’t wrong then they exist. Dad took me inside and locked the door.

I went upstairs angrily and slammed my door. "Erin", Dad knocked my door.

" Dad, I'm okay. I want to be alone. You have an office tomorrow. Please take rest".

"But Ba-", I stopped dad because I knew what he was going to say.

"Dad, I'm not afraid. It's just kids", I uttered.

Dad didn’t say anything but he was standing there. I could feel it. And I could hear his heart beat too. I sighed and opened the door. Seeing me all of a sudden, dad became stunned.

" See, I'm okay", I gave him a careless look.

"Oh heh- " Dad tried to be normal and pretend to be cool.

"Oh I-I was about to leave but Y-you opened the door".

" Okay then Goodnight honey and please don't lock this damn door". oh my God, I sighed and nodded.

I slightly closed the door but didn’t lock. Not because of me, it's because of dad. If they hurt my dad then?

I turned off the light. Slowly Erin's room became illuminated but suddenly stopped.

Dad came again to see me so, I stopped using my power. I pretended to fall asleep. Slowly he trudged out there.

Scene shifted to outside.

......Someone maybe a shadow or a man or woman, standing under the lamp post, covered his body with a black long cloth, so tall, too skinny, have a hunchback. ......
