 Clara and I were walking to school on Monday morning we and noticed that someone was following us so we recorded the time, date, place and what he looked like. When we got to school we looked back and he was standing across the road staring at us so we ran inside to get as far away from him as possible. All through English, Math, Science and Hpe all I could think of was how that man looked at us. It was like we were some type of meat that he was planning to cook and eat. My mind  kept flicking back to the two seconds that I saw his face he kind of had what looked like sympathy in his eyes, as if he was sorry for me, but I couldn't figure out why. I was scared I had no idea what to do. All I knew was I had to tell, someone that would help us. So I did. I told my home class teacher Miss Bluebell.  She drove us home and told us that she would pick us up in the morning just to be careful.

          That night, while I was brushing my teeth, I saw something outside in the corner of my eye. I quickly rinsed out my mouth then looked out the window. It was the same guy that was following us this morning, he still had that look in his eyes, although it was a bit harsher now. I  quickly ran downstairs and called the police. I told them that this guy had been following me since this morning and they asked me to describe what he looked like so, I looked out the front window to remind myself of what he looked like and he was gone.

           This was starting to get weird I was afraid to go to sleep because all I could think of was that look in his eyes. I called Clara and asked her whether or not she'd seen him too. She didn't. I was beginning to wonder if I was just seeing things because I was so scared. Maybe he wasn't going to follow us today, maybe it had just my mind was just playing tricks on me, maybe I was going mad.

           When Miss Bluebell came to pick me up the next day I told her what had happened last night. She had a worried look on her face. It was the same look that guy had in his eyes, except it was all over her face, like it was too hard to hide or something .Maybe there's more than one person following me and I'm just part of a big scheme. Nothing seemed to make sense anymore, it was all  too confusing .

          When I got to school he was there again, just staring at me as if we were the only two people there, but as soon as I looked away he was gone. I looked at Clara and she nodded as if she knew what I was going to ask. She had seen him too. Now I knew I wasn’t seeing things. Clara and I are the only ones that have seen this guy. Is he invisible to everyone else or something?

          I decided that I was going to walk home myself that afternoon. Well I wasn't really going to be alone, Clara was close but she would stay hidden, just for the caution that we were going to see him again. When we did Clara was going to call the police and I was going to try not to look away so that he would stay there and she could describe him.

          So, we did end up seeing him but he disappeared again. We got a good look of him, but by the time the police picked up he was gone. It was the strangest thing that had ever happened to me. I had a feeling that something was going to happen soon. That this guy was going to do something to me and Clara.
