It was a dark night, a dim light was burning in the room and everything was unusually quiet. The shadows falling on the walls were forming strange shapes as if they wanted to say something. I was sitting on the bed but an unknown restlessness was growing in my heart as if some invisible thing was present nearby.

Suddenly, it felt as if something had moved in a corner of the room. I tried to convince myself that it was just my imagination but my heart wasn't ready to accept it. Every passing moment was deepening the feeling that something wasn't right. Even the air seemed to have stopped and time felt like it had slowed down.
I tried to look away but the strange thing was that the more I ignored it the more that feeling kept growing. As if something was just waiting for me to pay a little attention. My heartbeat had quickened and my breathing had become irregular too.
Finally, I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself down. Sometimes it’s better not to see certain things because it isn’t necessary to know every reality. Some secrets feel safer when they remain secrets.
