I woke up to silence. Pure and horrible silence. Everyone was gone and I was left alone. I took in my surroundings, the electronics were there where I left them, yet I have a feeling that something's wrong, like a missing piece, out of place. And there goes the damn eyes! I got out of bed lazily and looked at the time.
10:46
'Oh well' I thought to myself, no one here to bother me at least. I got up and in an instant, my body was in autopilot, leaving me with my thoughts. I was disturbed at the thought of the game yesterday, it wasn't supposed to go like that. Once I finished my routine and gained my senses, I wanted to watch some t.v Catch up with the things I missed,
I grabbed some blankets and chips from the pantry and headed to the living room.
I stopped entrance, the t.v was on but with a blue screen. I shrugged it off and fixed it back to its original settings, a heavy weight was set in my gut, telling me I shouldn't be alone I kept watching my shows nevertheless. Up until the climax things got a bit...disturbing.... the t.v glitched in and out, viewing empty scenes or a picture that was taken underwater, the corners had 0's and 1's. The characters warped in and out at random times, I grew uneasy but something kept me from looking away. Then it appeared. My mind screamed,
Its horrible features staring right back at me, its psychotic grin sends shivers of displeasure down my spine, that damn elegy statue was back at it, then a text popped up from the t.v.'you have met with a terrible fate, haven't you?'
Everything turned off, not a single light, in panic I opened the curtains, I sought comfort in the light of day, it was calming. I looked outside and out to the woods, there was a glint coming from the corner of my right eye
'What the hell?'
I rubbed my eyes and blinked, I swore that I saw that damn elegy statue in the bushes, but as I looked closer. Nothing, absolutely nothing.
'damn eyes'
chills went down my spine again, I walked away from the window, I internally groaned when I remembered that I had chores to accomplish, but the power was out and I needed to use the vacuum.
'Think, just think, there's carpet, but no vacuum, use a broom then?'
Just as I finished that thought, the lights turned back on, I sighed in relief and got to work, I wanted to start now because I'll just get lazy, also I could have more time to myself and do my things alone without any interruptions.
Just as I finished the chores the lights blacked out once more,
'was there a storm outside?'
I went to the window once more to look outside, nothing, not a drop of rain anywhere, I sneaked a peek over at the neighbors lights, theirs were working just fine.
'do we need to replace the fuse box?'
I asked myself this question, but I then remembered we replaced it a year ago, so that meant, it should be good for another five or six years. A wave of chills were sent down.
'someone was watching me.'
I checked the time In my phone, 7:37, seems I have been pondering a lot, at least I had time for a few rounds of my games, I grabbed some chip bags and a can of soda and walked straight to my room, I stopped in the middle of the hallway with a pale face,
"plaaaay it...plaaaay it...plaaaaay it."
It was mesmerizing, I don't know what took over me, it was very quiet when I got in my room, when did I start walking? I don't know, the voice almost sounded.....soothing...but haunting at the same time, I swayed a bit, the game console was already set up, the controller on the floor in front of the tv ready to be used,
