Untraceable Footsteps

PROLOGUE

Sorry for the redundant usage of words that I used in here. I'm not good at English, my friend actually helped me with my grammars. This Prologue is whole English, but the rest are Taglish.

Enjoy reading!

THE rain clattered and hit the ground, creating the sounds of a thousand claps. The lightning fractured the milky-gray sky, full of tearful clouds. The lightning made the sky light up for a second, which caused the drenched trees to cast their shadows.

I want to go somewhere, because it's my happy pill, but it's raining so I just decided to read my book.

I sat at the window of my room, removed the curtain to see the view in the backyard. After that I stood up to get my book - to read it while it was raining.

The raindrops settled themselves on the window and polka-dotted the glass.

I sat there in silence, complete silence. Just me, my book, and the sound of the rain.

Until I felt like someone is watching me. I looked at the door of my room, but nobody was there, maybe I'm just imagining things.

I focused on reading again, until I felt it again. I am very certain that someone is watching me, so I looked down to see who it was, only to see a young man, in our backyard.

I can't clearly see his face, because the window was blurred - caused by the rain. So I opened the window to see him.

He is standing with his hands in his pockets while looking directly at me, he looked stunned, maybe because he wasn't expecting that I will catch him watching me.

He's wearing a white shoes, denim jeans, a black mask, and a pink hoodie. His clothes are all wet because of the rain. I can only see his eyes because of the hood and the mask that covered his face.

The moment our eyes met, the same time my heartbeat raced.
It's like the rain and the time stopped, and it's just the two of us staring at each other.

His eyes - it's mismatched eyes.

Blue on the left, Green on the right.

We stared at each other for a couple of seconds until he was the first to look away. I decided to go down, to ask why is he watching me.

I stood up and left the room. I walked towards the stairs and go down. I went to the back door of our house and opened it, but no one was there.

I went out to look for him, but no one, I witnessed no one. I took a walk for a couple of minutes in our backyard and decided to go up. I went to the window again and finished the book I was reading.

FEW days have passed and I still felt like someone is always watching me, even in school, mall, and restaurants, but every time I looked to see who it was, none, no one was always there.

Until one day, I couldn't felt it. I don't know why, but I love the feeling that someone is always watching me. I keep asking to myself why? Why I want his presence? Why I want to see him again?

I don't want to jump into conclusions. It's not possible to have a feelings to someone that I just saw. And I'm just 13 years old, so I ignored it.

I'm in the window of my room again, my favorite spot. It's just me, my book, and music that comes from my Cellphone.

I'm in the middle of reading when I felt again like someone is staring at me, I looked down to be sure, but no one. I'm certain that someone is watching me, because I felt the feeling of contentment - again.
