“Today was a great day. The convention was fun, met many new creators, got to meet my favorite author, and I’ve finally gotten the final part of his work. Today just couldn’t get any better.”

Just as I was saying this, the sound of some footsteps drew near. Paying no attention to it, I continued to venture towards the direction of the nearest subway, minding my own business thinking it was nothing. But as time passed and the footsteps grew eerily closer, my mind started to grow wary of it.

Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

The sounds became clearer as I took a more deserted path. The construction area was rather solitary during that time of the hour. With no one around, the steps slowly crept closer and closer, faster with each pace. Feeling a piercing gaze, paranoia struck as I stopped my tracks. Whether it was stupidity or bravery, I turned back to apprehend the stalker. With a quick turn right round corner, I crashed headfirst right into them, falling behind on the pavement as a result from the backlash. The next thing I knew, everything went black.
