Savior of the Nightfall

౨ 10 ৎ

I woke up in the living room when I heard a bone-chilling laughter. My forehead creased. It's still dark and the atmosphere's heavy. I glanced at the wall clock and saw that it was exactly three in the morning. This is one of those nightmares again and I felt like vomiting.

The noise came from afar. I got up from the sofa and decided to see what was going on. I peeped at the kitchen. This time, the dark figure had a face.

Savior was turning his back on me. Even though I couldn't see him well, I still noticed how he cleaned up his knife miraculously.

My heart dropped when I saw the photographs displayed around his kitchen, it almost made me puke! Images of dead women with their intestines out, chopped bodies, and bloody skin met my eyes. It's beyond disturbing. Morbid. Vile. I don't know what to say!

My blood turned cold.

This is a nightmare again, right?

Right...?

But no... it felt different...

It didn't feel like a dream.

It all felt so real.

Because of the uneasiness, I accidentally broke Savior's vase! The sound of the shattering glass filled the room.

Savior slowly turned around that made me froze. His eyes were cold and filled with darkness, gone was the tender stares that I know! I felt like I'm looking at a demon instead. A blank tortured soul.

He smiled and threw the knife at me, aiming for my eyes without a warning!

My eyes widened. Good thing I quickly avoided it! My body turned shaky and I suddenly wanted to cry because of the terrifying situation!

My heart bawled blood. My fear consuming me whole. Body turning in glaciers. Eyes screaming for help. I don't know what to do! I'm stuck in my spot yet my fears were eating me alive!

My hairs went up when he gave me a sinister smile, just like the killer in my nightmares! He grabbed another sharp knife as his eyes turned darker!

"Run, my little Sunshine." He smiled innocently.

I cried for help and immediately ran away from him! My tears were flowing like a scarlet waterfall because of the heaviness that I'm feeling inside my system! My fears were too much. My anxiety was too much. I couldn't breathe anymore! Everything felt suffocating!

I was relieved when I'm already near the door, but when I finally reached the doorknob, I couldn't open it! The door's locked!

I looked back and saw Savior wearing his sinister smile as he chased after me. He was laughing hysterically while running. My tears poured on its own as my body accepted defeat. I'm so exhausted.

I closed my eyes and let myself fall to the ground, crying, screaming, waiting for death to strike.

I couldn't believe it...

Savior isn't the one who'll save me from my nightmares.

Savior is my nightmare.
