I was feeling sick again by the time I arrived home. I didn't like this at all. I promised myself that I would go hospital for check up.
I was looking at my schedule for the next day.

I rushed to the kitchen to find something to eat. Luckily, I got some juice and some biscuits. I dunked as I ate. I was doing my assignment as well. I didn't want to start rushing doing it in the morning. Or even worse copy from a friend.

My mind drifted to Niall. I wondered how he could be doing, if he was fine or not. I decided to text him, but then I heard a loud knock on the door.
The banging continued for like two minutes.

I was afraid to open the door because no one ever knocked that loudly. I tiptoed to the window and peeped outside.

But there was no one. Could I be dreaming? I decided to go check outside if I could see them. I then thought that whoever the person was, had mistaken the door.

Out of curiosity, I slowly opened the door and looked down the street. I could only see a couple walking and laughing as they sometimes kissed. No one else was in view except them. I ruled out them because they couldn't be the one obviously.

I went back to the house and lay on my bed. I completely forgot about texting Niall so I just closed my eyes to think.
I then remembered my juice in the living room and went for it and switched on the telly.

Later, my parents arrived at around 7.30. I was happy to see them, because I was really afraid. Ever since I heard the loud knocks,I jumped at every little sound.

"You look so pale, darling are you sick", my dad asks me touching my forehead.
I shake my head and say "Earlier today , I heard loud knocks on the door."
"Did you see who was knocking?",my mom asks me shocked.
"No, I was really afraid and didn't come out for a while, when I went to check, there was no one ", I tell them remembering the knocks.

" Perhaps they were mistaken", my dad assures us.

We are ate dinner in silence, only talking when necessary. I watched my mom and I could tell that she didn't like what I had said earlier.

On my part, this whole thing was frightening. I mean who could come and knock so loudly at other people's house? I tried to focus on the fact that they might have been mistaken but still...

We finished our dinner and after telling my parents to have a good night, I went straight to my bedroom.

I was eager to go to school the following day, since we'd be starting up projects which I really loved. With that, I feel my eyelids getting heavy and I slowly drift off to sleep.
