He sits in the chair. Watching as the clock hand slowly rotates around.
"Ding Dong." The clock says as it's two hands touch the top.
"Ding Dong." He says as he watches.
The shadow that sits in the corner stands and looks at the boy.
"Don't look at me." He says. It still looks at him, creeping ever closer. It's long,
needle like legs tap tap across the floor and stand behind him.
"Who are you." It speaks into his ear.
"I don't know." He replies.
"Do they like you?" It speaks into his ear.
"I don't know." He replies.
"Do you annoy them?"
"I don't know." He replies.
"Is it outside your window?" It speaks into his ear.
"I don't know." He replies.
"Then let us look." It says into his ear, it pushes himself away from him and tap taps to
the window, it looks back to the boy.
"I don't know..." He says.
"Let us." It speaks.
"Okay." He says and stands up, and walks to the window.
"Open it." It speaks into his ear.
"Okay." He opens the window and looks out. The sharp black claws reach in and
hook themselves into his face, swiftly pulling him out.
"It was." It speaks and closes the window.
