Alyssa Carter is your average wattpadder. She's excited when Wattpad releases their new app, TAP!
She's one of the first few people to get it. There's only a f...
I made a rough estimation, the excitement inside me building up quickly. 96% done, basically.
What am I doing? I'm downloading TAP! – the new app wattpad just released less than 24 hours ago. I can't even contain my excitement as I stare at the screen of my phone. There's a sound of roaring outside so I look up and notice that it has started to get very cloudy. Good. A cozy Saturday afternoon. Just what I want. When I look back at my phone, my heart leaps.

100% complete and installed! I sit up properly against my headboard and load it up. The anticipation inside me is hard to control. I can't even begin to explain how excited I had been when I saw the ads. Wattpad's great – hella amazing, yeah. But TAP!? It's like a huge gripping story in under 2 minutes. I could read it anywhere and anytime. Plus points if I don't want to seem like a loser, I can pretend I'm texting someone when I'm out.

When the app FINALLY loaded, I felt another wave of nervousness. At this point, I didn't even know if I was excited about the app itself – or the stories I could write on it.

I scrolled down a few times, trying to decide which one to check out first when my eyes land on a chat story much different from the others. My eyes are glued to it for ages. It has a decent amount of taps and I find myself opening it.

My eyes land on the background. That's my messaging background... But a lot of people probably used it. Just a coincidence. I tapped.

Scared, I look down at my own clothes and sigh in relief. I'm in my pyjamas. Just a horror story. I'm just freaked out. It's just a coincidence – god, Alyssa, get a grip. I laugh to myself before tapping again and staring in horror.
It can't be...

Hello boys and girls! Here is my TAP! inspired visual horror story!
Now, I don't actually have access to TAP! and I realised that this month's #JustWriteIt challenge was about TAP! but guess what? I'm still stuck on iOs 7 heheh. So I actually had to ask my boyfriend to download it – who didn't seem unenthusiastic about chat stories he's looking forward to that – and send screenshots but he's busy so I had to get on to photoshopping chat logs.
Which brought me to my NEXT problem: my photoshop program didn't have the right rounded rectangle which is why the rectangle edges I made are a bit... Out of shape. But I'm focusing on the story more than visuals so I hope you can overlook that.
But I do hope you enjoy Alyssa's horror-filled thrilling days.
Do let me know what you think and/or press the little star to show your support!
