"*Bang!!!*"
I hit the table as I got up from my seat.
"Shit! Someone unfollowed my novel!! What did I do wrong? Was my novel really that bad!?"
I kept on asking myself this question and in doing that I started questioning myself and my entire existence as well.
I know that the novel in its initial phase isn't all that great. To be honest, it's kinda meh in my opinion but still, I think I deserve more!
What mistake have I made!?
I started rereading my work. I know that it wasn't a very unique plot and I knew that apart from the main character Raphael, my spiritual and mental representation most of the characters weren't developed till the first 20 chapters of the novel, but still, I don't think that my novel is terrible.
Sigh...what should I do now?
I thought as I looked outside the window. It was nighttime but there was no moon in the sky, if I were a poet then I would have said that the moon is angry with me or something like that, but I know full well, that it's just a natural phenomenon. Today was New Moon, I have heard that the 'Evil' beings become stronger during the New Moon. I wonder if I will die when I go to sleep, hmm...dying peacefully in sleep...doesn't sound too bad. I should probably go to sleep now.
With this thought in mind, I went to sleep.
My bed was slightly smaller than a regular queen size bed but it seemed to fit me without any problems as if it was solely built for me to sleep on it. I layed flat on the bed then I turned left and closed my eyes.
I was about to fall asleep when suddenly my heart started beating at an abnormally fast speed.
This...this feeling!!!
I remembered this feeling. Something like this happened to me almost 3 years ago in September 2019, when I was at my uncle's house. At that time too I was in a daze before going to sleep.
As soon as my heart started beating faster I found myself being unable to move or speak, it's not like I was having any trouble breathing nor was I feeling any pain but the feeling of not being able to move my body according to my will is creepy.
When this thing happened to me for the first time in 2019, I thought that it was because of a ghost or something. My reason for thinking so was because my father faced the same situation when he was my age but after some time I dismissed the idea that it happened to me because of ghosts or anything like that.
But facing the situation again...I can't help but think that it's the work of the ghosts again. Or maybe it might be the act of God who finally heard my prayers and decided to give me a swift death. Haha. what am I thinking? This must be because of the stress or something like that.
I kept on denying the possibility of ghosts being involved until 'that' happened.
I was trying to calm myself to get out of the situation I was in when suddenly I felt someone whisper in my ears!
"@#$%^&*"
It was the whisper of a woman. She said something in a language that I didn't understand.
Huh? Who's there? I tried to look at the source of the whisper but I wasn't able to move my head. What was it? Was I overthinking things?
Then, I suddenly felt someone climbing on my bed.
When this happened I literally felt despair.
I mean I was alone in my room and I had already locked my bedroom door. No one could have entered the room, then why did I feel someone climbing my bed!?
I was completely scared shitless. I was filled with an ominous feeling in my heart, no I was actually despairing.
I tried to call out for my parents but no voice came out of my mouth.
It was then that I felt someone holding my hand trying to drag me somewhere else.
I resisted, yes I was able to resist, looks like my strength was returning back to me and now I was able to think clearly. For a moment I thought that I would win when suddenly I lost my strength. Huh? What happened?
After that, all my resistance turned futile and I fell asleep.
I woke up.
But my surroundings were different. There was no ceiling fan above my head, no mattress beneath me. I lifted my arm up in the air and looked at it. Then I was hit by a thought.
Yes, just as I expected.
I have been either reincarnated or isekaid...
