Here's Your Answer
I looked out of the window and was horrified to see a creepy shadow behind the trees. I checked twice and still couldn't believe what my eyes were showing me.
The shadow looked like a man-like tall figure. That man or whatever that thing was, wasn't looking like a Human at all. It had big bulging eyes with dark circles around them with which, it was staring at me. He didn't have a nose or maybe, that's what I had seen.
I thought that it's just my eyes playing a trick on me. But, it wasn't long before I realized, they weren't.
The shadow started to move up the trunks of the tree. It was going towards the 3rd floor, that's where my sister's room was. She was 5 years old and was silently asleep. I started thinking of her. But then, I acted on my instincts, and got out of bed and ran towards her room.
I got inside of her room and checked if the window was latched. And thank God it was. I pulled the curtains and while doing this I saw that thing looking at me, looking as if, it was angry at me for some reason.
After that, I tugged my sister properly and called mom out. She checked our rooms and looked out of the window to find nothing scary looking at her.
She didn't believe me that night and told me that I had seen a nightmare.
The next day, we got up to the sound of a police man knocking at our door. My mother was the first one to get up and open the door.
I went down stairs and saw a grave look on my mother's face. Later on, I got to know that a kid had been murdered in our neighborhood, just 7 blocks away from where we lived.
I told the police man what I had seen last night.
Many other kids had told the police that they had seen a slender figure which looked like a man looking at them from out of there window.
Now my mother believed whatever I had told her about that man.
And was grateful that we were safe.
I too, thank God everyday for providing me and my sister protection that night.
