Have you ever had that creepy feeling that someone was watching you but when you turned around, no one was there? The reason is because I hide every time you look, Dear Reader. Yes, I'm watching you right now through the crack in your doorway. If you were to look back right now you wouldn't see me. Go on, test it out.

See, I'm not there.

Every time you look away, I inch closer and closer to you. Right now, I'm slowly inching my way into your room.

Now I'm at your night stand.

Still looking for me?

Each time you nervously glance my way and look away, it gives me the opportunity to come closer to you.

Like just now, how I'm scooted to the right of your bed. I'm so close to you that I can read over your shoulder.

You've searched for me four times and have failed. I'm practically breathing down your back. All you'd have to do is turn and see me once and you will be mine. Don't attempt searching for me again, or else i'll get you.

Oh! What a surprise. You've been so occupied with this that you've failed to notice me creep even closer.

Remember, don't look.
