Today was bright, beautiful and promising. I always wonder why the nights are always creepy and cold, when the morning is busy and warm.
Everyone was going with their various business, children here and there having fun and the men where doing their works with might and main
As a detective, I always have to be moving everywhere looking for things that I will find helpful.
"Good Morning Miss Lee!" a child called towards me. Turning back I saw a male child with the widest smile
"hello there, good morning..... do I know you because from your greetings it seems like you've met me before" I made my voice as friendly as ever
"of course you do but it was a long time ago" the way he spoke so confidently made me tried to remember him, tried but failed
"don't worry miss Lee, I'm sure Williams would know me" the child didn't wait for me to say a word, rather he skipped away joining the other children to play
"strange things do happen" with a sure mind and the right mindset, I started my day with the strange kid still in my mind
Finally, evening drew faster than expected and I had lots of information in hand than expected. Especially from Jude's neighbor
After making a quick minute dinner, I sat down recalling what the neighbors had said
Quite frictional but still informative....
The neighbors I talked were quite few, a single mother but she looks more happier with only her child, a pale man who looks like he was lacking blood, an odd elderly woman, a normal looking man and also a friendly youth. But all their stories were similar to one another....
Jude was a strange man, not only did his wife died mysteriously but he was also a traumatized fellow, he always talks about demons who killed his wife, Dracula and all sorts of dark things. Every morning by around eleven, glass shattering would be heard and this makes everyone in the neighborhood scared. One day they decided to check the house but cobwebs and old stuffs and dark rooms were everywhere, not looking for trouble they left the house. Within few days, Jude went missing.
I was busy thinking about what they said, when the hair on my body stood and I felt a presence behind me. Someone was standing behind me
I wasn't wrong.
Looking back, I saw the male who always come in my dream, he was the cause of the insomnia I was battling with few days ago
Shock always full me up when I see him. His face was pure terror.....
"Lee!"
