Episode 4
" Strange ... maybe the scent is coming from my neighbors apartment."
Well, I was so exhausted that i didn't bother thinking much about it. I quickly grabbed my book and slipped into my bed.
As soon I layed down, I opened the book. On the first page , it was written, To my beloved , but no name was mentioned.I wanted to read further , but eventually I don't exactly remember when I drifted off to sleep.
It was dark.
"What the hell is this place?"
"Lisa...Lisa"...
I turned around , trying to see who was calling me.
"Who's there ?" I said as I slowly moved forward.
Then I saw a man lying on the floor, drenched in blood.
"Hello? Excuse me, are you okay?"
Suddenly, I was startled when he slowly lifted his head and looked at me with emerald green eyes.
"Lisa...I found you.I kept my promise."
The beauty of those eyes stunned me. Suddenly, I couldn't understand what was happening to me. I felt pain and sadness at the same time, and tears rolled down my face.
Then, with the loud sound of lightning, I screamed and wokeup .
"Thank God...that was a dream".
I gazed at the window and saw rain pouring outside.I felt water covering my face, and as I rubbed my against it , I realized the water had come from my own eyes.
"What ? When did I cry? Maybe it happened in my dream..."
I froze as I looked around my room, trying to find the book I had been reading .
It was 2:30 am.,and I was searching everywhere for the book.Maybe I should check outside my room.
I walked into the living room but still couldn't find it.Suddenly, my eyes landed on the kitchen counter.
There it was.
I moved slowly toward it as questions started rushing through my mind.
"Did I place it there by mistake? or was it someone else?"
But there was no one in the apartment except me .
Finally, I whispered to myself , " I clearly remember falling asleep while reading the first page."
Strange...how did the book end up on the kitchen counter?
It definitely wasn't me.
Then who was it?
