It's five in the evening, it's been hours since my parent went out for their anniversary  date.

I'm just watching television to fight off this boredom.

*Ring*

"Hello?"

"Honey, We'll be late today, we left some food at the kitchen, whenever you feel hungry."

After the phonecall I went to the kitchen to get some snacks and have a horror marathon.

It's been hours since the last phonecall, It's raining outside, I think my parents will be really late because of this heavy rain.

When I was dozing off, I saw something move at the corner of my eye.

I glanced at our balcony just beside our television, and there I saw....

There was a guy looking at me outside the balcony, I can't really see him clearly because it was so dark outside.

I was terrified so I quickly dialed and called the police.

I was crying because I'm too terrified, the police arrived after a few minutes.

I was just standing beside the table while watching the police inspects the place.

I was really terrified from the fact that I saw someone outside our balcony looking at me, those look, it feels like it was piercing my soul.

While I was lost in thought the police signals me to come over near the couch I was seating on earlier.

"Lady, the guy you saw at the balcony is not here."

I really don't get what he meant.

"But, I saw him there a while ago."

He pointed something behind the couch I was seating earlier.

There I saw a wet footprint.

"I think you saw the reflection of the guy you saw at the balcony, He was behind you all along."
