After a long day of work I come home to find my dog barking and wanting to get let outside. Once I let her outside, I go to the kitchen to get something to drink. As I come back into the living room, I let her back inside. I go to sit down in my chair and turn on the TV. With my dog curled up on my lap, a glass of milk, and the TV on some stupid cooking chanel, I doze off until I was sound asleep. I jolt up from my dreams to find my dog barking at the window. I lazily rub my eyes, yawn, and look at the clock and realize it’s twelve in the morning. Angrily, I yell at my dog to be quiet. Since he didn’t shut up, I walked over to the window he was barking at. I went to go look outside to see what he was barking at. I thought maybe a tree was swaying in the wind or the neighbor’s dog was outside or something stupid like that. I look outside and actually see something; a face. I blink a couple times and rub my eyes to see if my mind was playing a trick on me, but it wasn’t. The face was still there staring blankly at me like they were trying to read my mind and convince me that this was normal, but I knew it wasn’t. I was mortified, paralyzed with utter fear. When they walked away I fell to the ground and started wailing. I was shaking with fear, hoping that the person would not find a way into my house. Luckily, he did not come inside my house. The next day I went to the store and saw the same face. He was standing in line behind me. I turn around and yell, “That man was staring at me through my window!” He just walked away like nothing happened. I was so terrified that he would come to my house and steal things or even rape me. A few days later, I heard some other women saying that this creepy man came to their house and looked through their windows at them. That night someone broke into my neighbor's house, and raped her. She was one of the many women who said they saw that creepy man; I was mortified it would be that man. I found out it was that man, and the police came and arrested him. I never found out who he was before the police took him to jail, but I feel safe now that he is in jail.
