Autumn

From the corner of my eye, I see a figure, dark and buff, staring at me. I turn to face it, knowing that’s never the solution, it stares at me, watching me like a predator ready for its prey. I can’t see clearly but the light of the moon shines a bit on its glowing yellow eyes, hungry for something, for me? I think to myself that it may only be a man but what kind of man has yellow eyes that glow.

I blink and the figure is gone, vanished, as if it was never there. It had sort of an intimidating look that gave me shivers. I hadn’t even heard it leave, I start walking faster than usual. I can still feel those eyes on me, burning deep into my skull.
