Childhood superstitions

When I was 8, I stayed up late at night watching television. My mother always told me never to turn on the television exactly at 4:44 am. If you ever did, you would hear clicks and heavy breathing in the next room; If you do check, a black shadow with red eyes will glare at you.

They also told me if I wore another person's glasses, I will see that person's death. It's true. I put on my mother's glasses, and since then I've always been a little fearful of my father.
