The night of Halloween, people surrounding the streets with costumes on. Going house to house's, just like every year of Halloween.
The year of the DEAD.
† please to make myself clear.. This series has a different timeline and a different scene, if...
The light of the sun shines from the curtains, the room lit up. But still a bit dark, making you groan in an annoying manner "its morning already?" you sat up and looked at the time. It was 7:15 am, still have time to get dressed up furthermore get ready for the next appointment session that you'll be having.
Your a therapist, an licensed mental health professional. At the age of 29, you got a promotion because of making your client's reduced symptoms of mental illness. Some of your clients complain about your behavior, yet you were still trying to process stuff in your own way. Tho you left from another town to earn some more money to treat your mother's hospital bill, your mother suffered from an illness called cancer. Even tho she's in the worse condition,but she can still manage to stay alive.
You put on your fuzzy slippers on, taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly then going to the bathroom, now starting to do your usual routine. Brushing your teeth, fixing your hair and taking a bath.
"dang.. Im out of shampoo" you complained as you dropped the empty bottle of shampoo in the trashcan "guess ill be showering without any shampoo" you said in a funny and pissed way.
A few minutes have passed, you finally got out of the shower. You kneeled down to get something inside of a drawer, a hair dryer. Now standing up to plug it on, adjusting the heat furthermore drying up your hair. Giving it a few secs to dry up fully, now putting the hair dryer to where it was taken.
"only got 15 more mins.." you then said in a hurry, for more then 8 minutes. You finally got dressed up and all prepared, giving yourself a pat on the shoulder "ah, i almost forgot." you then grabbed your purse, checking if its all in there. You signed in relief, now wearing your boots. It was starting to drizzle outside so you grabbed your umbrella, getting down the stairs and getting the keys from the key holder. Now making your way outside, locking the door.
Few hours have passed, you were taking dozen of clients. Doing the usual things, listening to the clients problems. Then you speak with the solutions, some of the clients had depression, drug addiction, family problems and especially couple problems. You didn't have much experience of love, but still can manage to put an solution to it. even at the age of 29 you still haven't had a boyfriend or husband.
You sign exhaustedly, looking at the paper work. "there will be more appointments tomorrow" you standed up and went to your desk, putting all of the paper works inside of an drawer. You looked at the calendar, taking off your glasses then putting it down on the desktop.
"Halloween will be in a few days, i should have a break on this appointments" you stretched both of your arms, lifting it up at the air while yawning then putting it both down. Now looking at the your watch to see whats the time. It was 3:32 pm, you were relief. You get your purse and left your office, your office was top of a building. So you have to take an elevator to take you down, you then pressed the down button of the elevator. While looking for something inside of your purse, your phone.
You went in the moment when the elevator opened, you were the only one in then pressed the down button again. As the door of the elevator was about to close, an big and red hand stopped it. You got surprised at that moment, but a person went in with you. It seems like he was wearing a devil costume, there was something weird with he's costume. Its like it was, attached to he's skin. Maybe thats just in your mind, you looked at the person's face. He is wearing a red sweater with a turtleneck, isn't Halloween going to be in a few days? Why was he wearing a costume now? He was smiling, hes smile is creepy, its like hes smile doesn't even flinch a bit. You got shivers down your spine, some of the hairs on your neck went up. You tried to ignore him as the elevator door closed, you both can feel that it was going down.
The person then bent a lil to see your face, you can feel a sweat coming down from your forehead. "did you know" he said in a very much deep and yet gentle voice "if you cook a human flesh, the aroma is similar to beef?" he said confidently, yet you were terrified. Like, a random stranger said that human flesh can smell the same as beef!? You said to yourself, this is fine.
"w-wow, i never knew that" you said nervously, looking at him while smiling awkwardly at him. Is he flirting with you? If thats the way he's flirting, he is trying hes best to do so.
For some reason, he smiled back at you. Closing he's eyes while he smiled at you; But now, not in a creepy way. It was more like a happy smile, just like those couples who were smiling together. That was your thought, its like he didn't have any negative thoughts anymore. Like it disappeared from the moment he smiled like that, you felt warm.

At the moment the elevator door opened again, he opened hes eyes. You looked at him at shock, you thought to yourself. Wasn't he's eye's dull black earlier? Why is it, cyan.. But, something felt different for you towards him. He's cyan eyes were warm to look at, it was still weird but. Something really changed, something change about him.
"I'll be seeing you later, darlin'." he then went out of the elevator after saying those words to you, you stood there paralyze. Did you just hear what he said? That's.. Strange, you said to yourself. You hope that this day wont get any better, you hoped.
