Thud... Thud... Thud...
It was all I heard.
My own heartbeat.
Slow, yet steady.
The light in my room flickered, then I was swallowed by darkness.
Something brushed past my shoulder.
It was a mystery, I thought I was alone!
Out of the corner of my eye, I spotted a dim glow, coming from the kitchen sink.
My feet were rooted to the spot, but I forced myself forwards.
Down the stairs.
To the kitchen sink.
The glowing figure glanced at me, just for a moment, long enough for me to realise, it wasn't human.
Then, it went down the drainpipe...
Alone?
