Demon.
Runa wonder what kind of demon appeared now, and why did it have to appear here, when she was alone?
And why did the demon have to come to her? What did it want?
Runa didn't move in the room. She strained her ears, waiting. But there was no sound anymore.
Runa turned and faced the cubicle door. She pressed her hands and ears to the door so she could hear more clearly.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
Sound of footsteps?
No. It was a knock on the door. But it sounded far away.
Shortly after the slow-paced knock on the door, Runa heard the door slam open and hit the wall. The sound was so loud that she startled and jumped away from the door.
Damn.
Runa closed the toilet and went up. She crouched there, hugging her knees tightly.
Facing the darkness alone had frightened her, let alone the appearance of a terrifying creature.
In a state of trembling, Runa again heard a knock on the door. This time closer.
