Ashley's POV
i glanced at my phone, it read '4:00'. I sighed and thought, "I woke up early again." For the last few days I have been waking up early, I might sound normal to everyone but I am the kind of a person who sleeps through the alarm. I cancelled my alarm yet again and got out of my bed.
I went downstairs and found no one there. "Everyone is still sleeping. Poor me." I went in to the kitchen and prepared some pancakes hoping they would enlighten my mood. While I was having my breakfast Mom entered the kitchen, kissed my cheek and sat down beside me with her laptop doing some work. Soon everyone was up and I got ready for school. My brother wasn't feeling quite well today, so, he got to take a holiday. I checked my phone one last time before leaving, it read "8:30". I waved bye to everyone and walked out of the house. To my surprise, the road was COMPLETELY empty. By now people either leave for work or for some morning walks. As I was walking towards my bus stop, I felt my head getting heavy. Suddenly everything went black, I couldn't breath, it felt so suffocating. I felt my entire body go stiff. it was just at that moment when I heard someone calling my name. I recognized it to be my friend, Lauren's voice. I slowly opened my eyes........... Was it a dream? Maybe or maybe NOT. I tried to divert my mind, so I started talking to my friends. When we both seemed to be in a deep conversation, it happened again. My surroundings went black. But this time I felt like someone was trying to throttle me.
Suddenly I felt normal, as if I was back to reality. I slowly opened my eyes. Everything was normal again, except..... it was midnight and I didn't seem to be asleep in my bed. I felt like I was in my closet. I slowly opened the door halfway and peeked outside. I was stunned by the sight. I saw myself sleeping in my bed and a man sitting at the edge of my bed look at my sleeping figure and smiling devilishly. It felt like my worst nightmare. Then the man suddenly turned towards me and smirked. Before I could react, I heard my mom calling me, "Ashley wake up, otherwise you're gonna be late for school."
Wait.... WHAT?
I slowly closed my eyes. This is impossible. What was happening? I had to figure this out. Who was that man? I opened my eyes slowly to find myself sitting in the bedroom, the edge of the bed was still dipped proving that someone had been sitting there. I checked my phone and saw that I was getting late. I quickly got out of my bed, took a shower, got into my uniform and went downstairs. Before leaving my school I checked my phone, it read '6:30'. I was stunned.
I thought it was again one of these weird dreams but I anyways went to my brother's room and found him seeing some album u had never seen before. I sat beside him and we both started seeing the pictures. Until........... I saw the picture of the MAN with my parents.
