Next Morning

Gianna
Next day morning... I'd stopped by at the supermarket from the cottage. I'd use some strong rope to keep attached to lock the doorknob, so it wouldn't let anyone in or break-in way in something like that. So... I left, was headed to town, looking for different places of supermarket or pharmacy for needing a tool.

But I couldn't stop thinking about that... things were breaking into my house. But I couldn't want to call the cop, cause if I tell them... they won't... you know... there might not go to believe me or something.

Cause it's superstition. But it kind of hard to tell... I think. I don't know what that thing was, in my head: I have seen enough.

I parked my car, walked inside the building. I looked around for a new extra doorknob of the backdoor and new paints for the kitchen and the bedroom.

"May I help you, ma'am?"

I glanced at my right shoulders by someone's spoke. It's was young boy teenage's co-worker.

"Yes, perhaps I do. Where can I get paint and a doorknob?" I've hopefully asked, then he's lightening up a smile on his face.

After I've brought the doorknob and some new paint colours I choose my favourite colour. I've chosen green paint for the bedroom, and bright grey paint for the kitchen counters and cupboard.

When I've arrived at home, my eyes start to glance over at—?!

...

SUDDENLY, I'd immediately stopped my car and gasped at figured was... standing by the tree and bushes and also he's looked right at me. Me!!!

Holy cow. I want it to drive away, but I couldn't. I didn't want to miss that creature to be going away and be gone. All I ever want to see him and try talk to him about what does he wants and so I can get fully answered from him.

Whenever I saw him in dark, panic-filled me. I'd lost count of the times I'd imagined I'd seen things from the corner of my eyes. But I'm speechless also.

Was am I'm scared or not?

I just don't know... I didn't have a choice. So I've begun to get out of my car and walked toward this creature things. All I ever did was to be braved and just want it to talk, that all.

He didn't try to move his muscles to run away this time. It seems to me like he's just stood on his ground and watched me that I'm approaching him. But he's wasn't look scared on his faces. His face turns into softening and glance all over down my body.

But me... all I want is to get a good looked at him... so when I reached him, I took a big deep, deep and deep breath and looked to... to... to...

...

I stopped on my track, by looking at these creatures again.

My heart began to panic that I'll almost approach him and was terrified by this huge creature was about five or six feet taller than me. I wasn't expected that he was much taller than I am, and I wasn't also expected that he's... he's... he's... look so real.

Am I imagining this or what?!

I didn't have any word to come out, I just froze like a statue, by looking at him. I didn't know what to do next, it seems like I'm the only one that I'm dumb and confused. Accept for one:

"Hi." I shyly said and felt deep nervous inside me.

Then he suddenly ran away from me—!

"Wait!" I yelled, and ran to him. "Mister, please don't go!"

I'd tried my best to keep up the running and running to him, but he ran faster than me. But he's headed toward the lake! I'd running right behind him.

When he approached the water started to jumped over and whole water splattered all over the place. I was so close behind him and catching up judging from my steps.

The moment my feet hit the water my breath caught in my throat and I stumbled to a stop. I'd looked up want it to see him where he go, but I missed it.

What the hell you haven't tried talked to him goddamn it!

I felt so stupid and such an idiot that I haven't had a chance to try reasoned to talked with him and talk for a moment.

Maybe I'll wait and try to work this out and want to talk with him when I see him... again.
