Tap....tap....tap...
A fuzzy haze glosses over the crust of your eyes.
Tap....tap.....
The foggy mirage clears slowly as you blink once, twice. Darkness spreads across your vision.
Tap..tap...tap tap tap...
The upstairs neighbors must be at it again. The reassurance helps you become consumed again by the dark. As you drift away a sudden piercing jolt courses through your veins. All you can hear is silence.
..............shhhhhhkkkttt....crack..
You jerk your head to the left, right. You manage to stifle out, "Who's there?"
................
Nothing..
Your eyes dart across your surroundings, searching for anything that could be out there. How could it be nothing? You heard it plain as what you wished was day. Then,
Click, click...tap.....tap...
Your body remains concrete..
...........
Nothing? This must be a dream. No, a nightmare. A flash of friendly faces waving flourished in the back of your mind. Wait..
Tap..shhk..shhk......tap
Wait wait wait...
Shhhk...crunch, crack...
A shape makes itself known as it bleeds into your memory.
Pop..gurgle..
Foam drips onto the floor. Slowly you trail the dripple of what seems to be human. Slowly, slowly..careful to count your breathes as you go.
Drip...drop...drip....
You shiver as it's revealed whats been lurking in the abyss.
.......
It's you. Not your neighbor. Not your family. Not your friends. It's you.
But if you're there....then, who is this?
