Do not stay awake

Do Not Stay Awake
Everyone wakes up at night. A sudden sound, a flicker of light, or a phone notification.
Most people fall back asleep. Some don't.
In this town, nights follow a silent, dangerous rule:
Do not stay awake.
Those who ignore it start receiving messages-messages that know your name, your thoughts, even what you did yesterday. Some disappear. Some are never the same.
It begins as a whisper in the dark, a shadow moving just out of sight. Then it learns. It watches. And once it knows you are awake, it never forgets.
This is the story of a girl who breaks the rule. One sleepless night turns into many, and soon, the nights themselves seem alive. The line between dreams and reality shatters, friends vanish, and fear becomes a constant companion.
A town where staying awake is deadly. A presence that watches through screens and shadows. And one terrifying truth: once you know the rule, you can never ignore it.
Read carefully. Read late. But whatever you do... do not stay awake.
