shawdow (Andy's pov)
I looked at the clock, it was half past six, my stressful and hectic day had already begun. my life have being filled with work and all that .
"perfect timing "I said quietly, my body had already gotten use to waking up early so the there was no need for alarm clock again.
I walked down the stairs of my office, I had forgotten a file on the secretary desk ,I walked hastily to get the files I was in no condition for jokes because I had a lot of works and paperwork waiting in my office ,while in haste my office pen fell From my pant pocket .i bent to pick it up when I suddenly felt like I was being watched or something ,I stood up making sure the pen was in my hand, I leap suddenly when a saw a shadow more like a human shawdow
"hello, who's there "
no answer , I just choose to ignore until I heard something, it sounded like my name
"Andy"
the voice seemed to drift away quickly, again I said loudly
"hello"
still no answer ,I stared in the shadows area, wondering why they had not fix the lights in that other part of the office, it was a bank ,everything ought to be bright. still looking at the dark stair ways I heard a voice coming from my back I almost leapt when a hand touched me
"sir.... is...everything okay"
it was Beatrice my co-worker
"am fine... mmmmmm just wondering why there is no light inthe other part of the stair case " ,I noticed her surprise and wondering look ,then turned and saw that there was light there and it was not dark at all..
"are sure you are alright " Beatrice asked why looking at me, a confused look...
"am good, nothing seems to be the problem, everything is just strange I guess"
she gave me okay let me you leave look, I turn back to stair ways I was sure that that place was dark, strange indeed I thought to myself .i quickly rushed down to get the files from the secretary table while choosing to ignore what had happened earlier, it might just be one of my imagination.
immediately I got to the streets of my house, I decided that I was going to get something to eat because I was in no mood to cook anything ,I am bachelor, it can be fun sometimes to be a bachelor and sometimes it can be very annoying. I remember the night I tried baking pie ,that night I was craving for a hot delicious pie, so I tried mixing some ingredients sure enough to form a pie shape, it formed a pie shape after all but trust me the taste was terrible.
"give me some potatoes chip and peanut butter " I needed the peanut butter to eat with my fresh baked bread. while the potato chips was to keep me awake in the night in order to finish off my half done office work.
I parked my car carefully, I didn't want to be disturbed by the neighbors and I needed my rest.
walking to my door step I noticed a note hanging on the door, I turned around suspiciously, my mail box was outside, it might be one of the neighbors. it had no address or telegram ,it also showed no post stamp...
I opened the note, It wasn't even sealed
the words were written in either red paint or probably blood
Andy Andy!! remember
it was a short note, I stared at the notes wondering who had deliberately left the notes just to piss me off. I just choose not to be angry ,I stuffed the note at the back of pants pocket, hoping to understand the note more ,but today was all strange, first the shadow ,the name and now a note. I laughed slightly and then turn the door knob to enter my house.
