In a small, secluded cottage nestled deep within the woods, a young boy named Daniel lay in his bed. The night was like any other, with a calmness that whispered tranquility. His parents were absent, leaving him alone to the gentle rustling of leaves in the wind.However, the serenity was abruptly shattered by a sinister presence. Soft yet chilling footsteps tiptoed down the hallway outside Daniel's bedroom. His curiosity compelled him to squint his eyes and investigate the disturbance.Without making a sound, the bedroom door swung open, revealing a horrifying scene. A figure, cloaked in darkness, carried the lifeless bodies of Daniel's parents into the room and placed them on a pair of chairs.
Their faces were frozen in a grotesque expression of death, their vacant eyes staring ahead.The intruder wasted no time. Using the blood of Daniel's parents as a macabre ink, he began to write something on the wall. Daniel's heart raced, and a shiver ran down his spine as he observed the malevolent script taking shape. However, he couldn't decipher its meaning.With calculated stealth, the murderer slid underneath Daniel's bed.
The boy remained motionless, his breath shallow, consumed by fear. He couldn't let the intruder know that he was awake; his very life depended on it.Minutes turned into hours, and the room grew darker. As Daniel's eyes adjusted to the obscurity, he strained to decipher the ominous message written on the wall.
The words remained a mystery until, finally, he managed to make out the sentence written in his parents' blood: "I am aware of your wakefulness."A gasp of terror escaped his lips, his blood turning to ice. Suddenly, he sensed a movement beneath his bed, realizing that the murderer not only knew he was awake but was also dangerously close. In the darkness, a pair of malevolent eyes met Daniel's terrified gaze, and he understood that this nightmare might never end.
