Nightly Visitor

finding out

[author’s pov]

                Every night Kris would visit her and they would talk the night through. She never questioned why he would always enter through the window. Actually she found it romantic. Somehow like Romeo and Juliet. She started falling for him and so did he.

I came back the next night to find her sleeping. She looked so tired. Her work must be really stressful. She had bags under her eyes but she still looked beautiful in my eyes. I silently watched her sleep. I lay beside her. I still can’t believe that I’ll see her again. I kissed her forehead. “don’t go… please… don’t leave me.” She said as she snuggled beside me. She talks in her sleep. I wonder what she’s dreaming about. I chuckled.

I had a really weird dream. I see myself in the car crash 10 years ago. It was like I was watching a movie. I saw Kris. He was trying to pull me out of the car. I hear glass breaking and then everything went black. I woke up sweating. He was sitting on the chair. “I know who you are.” I told him “you saved me.” I ran to him and hugged him. I started to cry. He was the one I’ve been looking for. It was him. My saviour.  “thank you for saving me.”

“thank you for saving me.” She said. She finally remembers me. I hugged her tight. I didn’t want to let her go. I just let her cry in my arms. She kept on whispering thank you until she fell asleep in my arms.  I slowly deposited her back to her bed and left.

                It was closing time. Ahjumma decide to close later than usual because there were a lot of customers. It was already 11 in the evening when we closed. The roads were already deserted. No one was out this time of the night. I hurriedly walked home. I wasn’t paying much attention to where I was going so I missed a turn and hit a dead end. When I turned around, two men blocked my way. I immediately got scared. “what’s a pretty little thing like you doing at this time of the night?” a tall fat man said. “are you looking for some fun?” the small bulky man said.

You started to shake. The tall fat guy grasped your shoulder while the other pushed you to the wall. You started to scream for help. The small bulky man started to kiss your neck when suddenly you heard a loud thud. The small bulky man suddenly went flying across you. The tall fat man was thrown against the wall. You curled into a fetal position, too scared to move. When you looked up you saw Kris. But he was different. His eyes were blood red, he had claws and sharp teeth. He was looking at you. When he was about to get closer to you. You screamed and fainted.

                You woke up in bed and your clothes were changed. You sat up and saw Kris sitting across from you. He was observing you.

[reader’s pov]

                “don’t come any closer.” I whispered when I noticed him trying to get close to my bed “get out!” I shouted. “please li-” I cut him off “I don’t want to hear your explanation. I’m still not ready to know the truth. Please get out.” I sobbed.

                I was walking near the restaurant where she works to check on her because she still wasn’t home. I could sense there was something wrong. I heard her scream. I immediately went to where I heard her scream and saw two men trying to harass her. My vision immediately turned red and lunged to man who was kissing her. I threw the man across the alley and threw the other one to the wall where they laid unconscious. I immediately turned to her. I forgot to change back. The fear in her eyes broke my heart. When I came near her, she screamed and fainted.

                I immediately carried her to her house. I changed her clothes and cleaned her body with warm water and a soft towel. I don’t want other men touching her. She’s mine. I hated the fact that I didn’t tell her what I feel for her. I’m afraid she might not love me back. I don’t want to be rejected by her.

                I slowly walked to the window to leave. I turned to look at her. I can hear my heart shattering. I don’t like seeing her crying. I don’t want to hurt her. I love her. “get out!” she shouted. I turned around and left. When I looked up to her room, I saw her lock the window and close the curtains. Tears started to well up my eyes. I have recently found out I love her. She was now my world. I would die if she’d leave me.
