Shadow?

    Next week Evyln would turn eighteen, she was planning to celebrate her birthday at her grandparents’ village. She felt like had something distract her to go to the village.

Thus, she told her mom that she wanted to go there. Evyln didn’t had many friend at school because they thought she was weird same as her grandparents, but that didn’t bother her to continue her studied at there.  

Evyln’s POV 

After we arrived at the village, I felt like someone were staring at me and when I looked back I didn’t saw anyone “maybe it’s just my imagination” I whispered to myself before get in the house. I heard my mom told me to stay in guest room while they stayed in my grandparents’ room.

 This house looked very neat and clean as someone had took care of this house every day to make sure this in good condition. “Mom did someone often come to clean this house?”

I asked my mom when she about to cook dinner for us. “Right sweetheart before your grandparents died they had asked someone to take care this house because this only treasure they had” she said before continue her cooked.

 While my father was talking with his phone about some project that he needed to handle at his company after we come back home. I walked near the window and looked at the street, it’s very quiet and dark because I didn’t saw any vehicle or people on the road.

Behind the tree I saw shadow of someone stood at there and it made me felt Goosebumps. I quickly closed the curtain and go to the table to eat dinner.

I didn’t planned to tell my parents what I see just now as I didn’t wanted they freak out. I finished my dinner hurriedly and quickly go to my room to sleep, as I felt very tired about this village and that shadow.

 Unfortunately the night didn’t went smoothly because the dream come again, this time I could clearly see his face. He was tall, had muscle body and blue eyes. His skin looked very pale like sick people, when I tried to get close at him I was attacked by someone and my head was head on the tree and I passed out. 

Then I woke up from my slept, I felt my head hurt and I saw my hand was bruised. I quickly jump from my bed and went to the bathroom and I saw my head also had bruised. The curiosity in myself become grew up “it’s just dreamed how was possible I get all this bruised” I talked to myself.

In the morning, I covered all my bruised with foundation because I didn’t wanted my parents saw it and they would keep asking me how I got the bruised.

I went downstairs and found my parents left a note “Sweetheart! your farther and i go to the town to buy some groceries and don’t forget to eat your breakfast. We will back home after buy some stuff” I read it with upset because they left me alone in this house. 

I mean I am not really scared but this not unfair as I also wanted to go to the town and looked around about this village. So I decided to eat the breakfast, before I could enjoy it I heard someone knock the door and with frustrated I went to open the door.

I could believe what my eyes just see as I see the same guy that appeared in my dream is standing in front of me. “WHAT THE HECK!!!” I burst out.
