After the demon's attack, Alex woke up with deep breaths, realizing it was all just a dream. His eyes shifted to the clock, and he saw the time—8:00 AM. He was late for college. Deciding to skip it, he stayed home to rest. After a shower, he got dressed, opened his laptop, and began finishing his assignment. Once he was done, boredom set in, so he decided to head to the park.
At the park, Alex spotted a bench and sat down, lost in thought. "Who was that boy sneaking behind the tree?" he wondered. "I know he was wearing a purple cap and jacket over a white t-shirt." The memory nagged at him. Then he thought, Maybe I should go check the cave. He hadn't visited it since his dad went missing. Just as he was about to leave the park, he noticed a boy waving at him. Alex's heart skipped a beat. That boy—I've seen him before, he thought.
He started walking towards the boy, but suddenly, someone called his name from behind. Alex spun around, only to find no one there. Confused, he turned back, but the boy was gone. The bench where the boy had been standing was now empty, as if he had vanished into thin air.
