That Night

I woke up as I heard my dog, Max whining. I drew the curtain aside and had a glimpse out at my backyard; I had sensed that was unusual as he was staring at a thorny bush. All I could see was some leather boots and a shadow of a dark, tall man. I saw that man covering his face with a hideous mask. I felt extremely perturbed and I hurriedly grabbed my inhaler from my and started hyperventilating and thought he was some kind of stalker. I don't know why but I got a peculiar feeling that he wanted to hurt me and my family.

After a few minutes I looked outside the window to find him staring right at me! I shouted at the top of my lungs so that my mom could come and I could tell her. She came running in and sat beside me. I told her that there was a stalker outside my window and that I felt very scared and insecure but when she looked outside there was no one there and max was sleeping like a baby. She told me that I was hallucinating and that I should get some sleep, so I went to sleep. I woke up again and looked at the time to see it was 3'O clock and when I looked outside the stalker was still standing there and Max was barking. I quickly jumped in my blanket. Suddenly I heard my mom shout!
