"I don't know why did I wake up so late today," Jensei said to himself.

Jensei is 30 years old. He is the manager of Ackermans inc. He goes for jogging every morning.

But that day he woke up late. However, he went for jogging like usual.

It was a gloomy day. It felt like the dark grey sky was about to cry any moment. He looked at his watch. It was 7:30 AM.

"Ughh..I shouldn't have come here. Seems like it's going to rain."

He kept running along the path around the park like always. All of a sudden, he felt a push from behind, causing him to trip and fall on the ground. He looked back but there was no one or nothing that could make him fall. The park was empty.

That moment, a harsh wind passed through him. Now he got scared. He started to tremble.

"Who's there?"

He asked. No one replied. The silence was unbearable. It started to feel like the whole Earth got shut down.

His eyes fell on an alley nearby the park. He had been visiting this park for years, how come he never noticed that alley before?

He could feel the sweat trickle down his forehead. Something wasn't right.

He again looked at his watch. It was 7:45 a.m.
He remembered his office started around 10:00 a.m. He had to go back home now or he'd be late for work. When he tried to walk back he was shocked.

He was unable to move. He couldn't move a muscle. He started sweating, trembling with fear.

"What the hell is happening with me?"

It started to rain with claps of thunder. He was getting wet, standing on the same spot, unable to move.

He noticed that a figure from the alley was calling him, gesturing towards him to come over. He wasn't able see that person's face. He just saw a dark, shadowy figure.

He went near to the figure inthe alley, as if sleepwalking.

Then something snapped him out of his reverie. He looked at his watch. It was 7:55 a.m.

'Damn! I'm gonna be late!'

He about to walk out of the alley when he saw a little boy across the street, who was trying to cross the road by himself. A woman held him back and scolded him. She seemed to be his mother. She hold him tighter than before and the boy pouted.

Jensei giggled when he looked at the child and forgot about the strange happenings in the park.

The next moment, the boy somehow got rid of his mother's grip and tried to run across the road. A loaded truck came from the opposite direction with a blaring horn.

It ran over the boy.

The child became a lump of flesh in a puddle of blood. Blood splattered across the road, it looked like a little crimson playground. His mother screamed.

"NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! KARMAAAAA!!!!"

It all happened so fast Jensei didn't understand what happened for a moment.

He started to tremble again. He had never seen so much blood. The whole road got crowded with people. The mother was still screaming. Jensei's head was reeling , he collapsed in the alley.

He didn't know for how long he had been unconscious. But when woke up he found himself on the bench of the park. He looked at his watch it was 7:50AM. He looked around him. His eyes travelled towards where he saw the alley before. But this time, it was gone.

"No, There's not any alley like before!"

He sighed as he convinced himself that it was just a bad dream. More like a nightmare, a nightmare in morning. He went out from the park.

He noticed that it was 7:55 AM, and heard a woman across the street scolding a boy for trying to cross the road by himself and held him tightly. Jensei started sweating again. He saw that the boy was the same from the earlier. The boy was trying to get rid of the woman's hand .

When he freed himself from his mother's grip, he ran across the road, a loaded truck was coming from the opposite direction...

I just forgot to add her name.... someone please kill me...
