Sounds of a camera shuttering.
The chills that she always feel whenever she walks outside.
Faint, yet slow footsteps.
She could've known.

Polaroids.
Polaroids, Polaroids, Polaroids.
Polaroids of her being everywhere. Every crook and cranny. Every corner in the room.

Oh god.
She's gonna pass out. She's gonna pass out. She's gonna pass out.
"Oh."
Black spots invaded her vision. Her sense of hearing starts to fade away.
Sickeningly, he smiled. "Sleep well."
