Chapter: BEAUTIFUL DISTRACTIONSFor the first time in some days, nothing strange happened, no whispers, no moving shadows, and there were no weird calls.There was no woman dressed in white and standing behind my bed. The fact that my apartment was completely quiet all night after the message appeared on my wall. And somehow, it scared me even more, because silence frightens more than fear itself. When everywhere becomes quiet, you’ll start overthinking too much. At that point you’ll start asking yourself questions, you’ll start doubting yourself, you’ll start wondering if you’re going crazy.I could barely sleep after the woman disappeared. Every tiny sound in my room made my heart beat faster.The sound of footsteps outside my apartment would make me fear and seat up quickly. At some point I kept staring in the darkness, expecting something terrifying to appear there.But morning finally arrived, peacefully, no wet footprints on the ground. It was so calm like nothing strange happened.I slowly turned my head t

Chapter: THE MORNING AFTERThe sigh from under my bed should have made me wake, it should have made me scream.But fear had drained every bit of strength out of me, I was too tired to think, too tired to panic, too tired to move. My body gave up before my mind could.Sleep pulled me harder.I remember waking up in the night, and the lamp beside my bed was still on, the room was quiet and calm, then sleep dragged me down again.When I woke up the next time, sunlight was shining through the edges of my curtains, and warm gold light spread across the room.For a few seconds, I lay confused.Then everything came back fresh in my brain.I sat up so fast, my hand flew to my wrist the cut was still there.I grabbed my phone from the socket where I was charging.11:37 AM.My heart nearly stopped.“No!” I screamed.I had missed work completely.The manager was going to deduct my salary.I jumped out of bed, I nearly fell over my own feet, and I rushed towards the living room.I stopped.I noticed something strange.The

Chapter: The Thing in the Dark“You should have answered the door.”His voice came from the darkness, not from outside, not from the hallway, but it came from inside my apartment very close to me.It was so close that I could feel the words near my skin.I screamed without thinking, I threw the metal candle as hard as I could, but it hit nothing.With only empty air, the room stayed quiet, except for my fast breathing.The lights were still off, and thunder shook the window. The rain hit the glasses so hard.I could hardly breathe, “Stay away from me!” I shouted.There was no answer.My hands were shaking so bad, I stepped backward not knowing where I was going until my legs hit the couch and I fell into it.Then something cold touched my ankle, cold fingers.I screamed again and kicked my leg widely but nothing was there.I pulled both legs onto the couch like a little child hiding from a monster.“Elena.”The whisper came from the kitchen down to the hallway and then right behind me. I turned around so fast that

Chapter: The voice behind the door“Elena.”My name sounded so strange from the other side of the apartment.It didn't sound like a real person called me.It sounded as if something was trying to copy a human voice.I couldn't move, I stood still My phone was still in my hand, but the screen had gone black and I kept staring at it like it had all of the answers I needed.The woman's whispers stayed in my head.Don't let him inside.Her voice sounded scared but real.But the hallway was empty, and I had lived here for years. I knew every sound that came from this building.But this sound was extremely different.Knock.Knock.Knock.Slow and careful knocks like someone knew I was scared and enjoyed it.“Elena,” the voice said again.I stepped back quickly, and I hit my back on the wall. It was so cold.“This is not real,” I whispered to myself.“I'm tired. I'm stressed, that's all.”I looked at the door. The white roses were still on the floor beside it looking beautiful, fresh, and the white handkerchief was still tie

Chapter: The Man in the RainThat night the rain was falling heavily, the gutters were overflooded and the street light blurred, the thunderstorms sounded so heavy on rooftops, within minutes the road was overflowing like a river not a place where cars normally pass.I stood under the bus stop covering myself with a cardigan, water kept dripping from the leaked ceiling landing on my shoulder every second.It's almost midnight, no cars are passing, my shoes were completely soaked by the rain, and my stomach was empty after hours of smiling at strangers in the bookstore cafe where I work.And in my purse, I had 500 naira. I laughed.I laughed not because it was funny, but I knew that if I didn't laugh I would break down there crying under the rain. At twenty-four I used to think about my life in a different way.I taught love would stay.My hard work would pay off, I do think that hope belongs to anyone who fights for it. But love always finds a way to leave.Money never stayed long enough to even matter. And ho
