It's already 6:00 p.m. Nothing special happened today, we just went furniture shopping and ate at some fancy restaurant.

As soon as I got home, I took a nice, long, shower. I washed my whole entire body, then my hair. Then, I wrapped a warm towel around my body. When I got out of the shower, I went to look in the mirror to hold up my hair. But then I saw a figure behind me. It wasn't some normal figure, it was like a black figure. No face. I jumped and then rubbed my eyes quickly. When I opened my eyes it was still there. It stood behind me. The bathroom was silent. I started the breathe heavily and I became paralyzed. What was happening? Who was this figure? Then after 5 minutes of just standing there, I ran out of the bathroom with my stuff. I was panting.

As soon as I changed into my pajamas, I ran to my mom and dad's room and told them what happened. They just laughed and assumed that I was just playing a trick on them. Then when I kept telling them it was real, my mom said I was only being ridiculous. Maybe it was just a vision. A strange vision. I didn't even know what to say or think anymore, so I just went back to my room and stared at the beautiful city out of my window. I thought to myself, "why would I have a strange vision about that figure? What's happening? I don't feel safe anymore." Then I undid my bed and got into it. I grabbed my MacBook Pro and texted my best friend, Lindsay, to get on Skype.

"Hey Linds, so something weird happened to me today. I feel scared." Lindsay asked me, "G, what's wrong?! Tell me what happened!" She called me G. "Okay okay but you're not gonna believe me." "Just tell me." I sighed. "So after I got out of the shower, I went to my mirror to put up my hair and then I saw a really scary, tall, black, faceless figure looking my way. I rubbed my eyes and still saw it there. So, I started to become sweaty and my heart began to beat fast and I didn't know what to do. So five minutes later I ran out and that's pretty much it." She seemed shocked. "G... are you sure that's real?" "Yes! I swear! And oh my gosh, our new neighbor came over today and told us a true story about this house." So I told her the story. She told me that this house may be haunted but she didn't want me to be scared. Well that didn't work at all because that just got me really nervous. "Okay Linds, I have to go it's getting late. I start High School tomorrow! Thanks for talking to me I miss you so much." "Okay G, I miss you more! Text me tomorrow and let me know how it goes! We start in 2 more days." I blew her a kiss. "Goodnight!" And that was pretty much my creepy day.

It was 2:00 a.m and I couldn't sleep at all. I kept thinking about the figure and High School at the same time. This got me nauseous. I turned on my light and I was feeling dizzy and hot. Then I ran to the bathroom and threw up. Afterwards, I drank lots of water. I opened my window to get fresh air and I felt better. Then I just laid in bed again and just stayed on my phone the entire time. I decided to not sleep.
