As a kid me and my dad would always read the book popularly known as 'Peter pan', I had always dreamed of having my own independent shadow, I always told my dad I said "I'm going to have my own shadow and it's always going to follow me daddy!" That was six years ago...My dad passed away from a tumor in the head when I was eight. He read the book 'Peter Pan' to me in his hospital bed and handed me a necklace with a baby blue pendant before he passed away, then I watched his heart monitor as the line went blank and I felt the tears as they trickled down my face. I had been heart broken because I watched the first man to love me pass away, in the way he did. Fast forward to now, i'm sixteen, i'm already in college already thankfully I graduated early thanks to my college classes In high school and due to my teachers giving us all of the easy work. "Thank God" I only have my mother but sadly she's fallen ill too, she's also in the hospital as well, my friends stayed by my side and so has my boyfriend....for the most part, him and my best friend have been acting quite strange lately. I always hear "I have to go pick up my sister from school" from him or from my best friend its always "My boyfriend needs a ride home i'll be back, don't worry" the thing is I am worried. Something's going on, I don't know what it is and its bothering me. I started to walk down to my first class for my new founded career. I saw my professor and yelled out "Hello Mr. Williams" he looked back at me and proceeded on "wow he ignored me...", " I'm going to head home its no use when the only professor left for the day is ignoring me and treating me like i'm trash" I felt like I had been being followed but no matter how many times I looked I didn't see the same person following me, it had given me an unsettling feeling. I start walking faster and faster but no matter how fast or how far I go the feeling is still there. I finally get home and open the door "WHO ARE YOU DAMMIT?!" I feel a cloth move over my mouth and everything starts to go dark "I swear I saw no one there" I thought to myself
