'Huh? What's happening?!'
Shivers run through my spine, and my eyes suddenly pry open.
I feel a sudden chill permeate every ounce of my being, and for a second, I am paralyzed, unable to move a single muscle. Something eerie, unmistakably awry, crawls through my skin like creeping insects.
The sensation jolts me awake, and I jump to my feet instantly.
Looking around my room, and all over my body, I see nothing of the creeping kind. I'm alone in here, so what was that feeling I just had?
Perhaps it's due to instinct, or pure coincidence, but my gaze slowly travels to my window.
I see that it is ajar.
'I forgot to close it…?' My thoughts trail as I approach it with mild drowsiness, though my eyes are already wide open now.
The first thing I notice about the world outside my window is how bright it is.
'Is it dawn already? Why is it so bright out?' I wonder to myself in silence. 'But the clock clearly says it's about midnight, though…'
