The knocking was soft at first, almost polite, but it was enough to pull you out of sleep. Your room was still dim, morning light barely spilling through the curtains. Rubbing your eyes, you got up and made your way to the door, still half-dazed.

When you opened it, your heart skipped.

Standing there was Mrs.—the mysterious girl you’d been talking to on the dating app for weeks. Her presence was exactly as you imagined: graceful, slightly eerie, yet strangely comforting. Her eyes seemed to hold a thousand thoughts, and her faint smile was unreadable.

She tilted her head slightly, her voice calm but carrying a strange weight as she spoke

“You finally opened the door… I was beginning to think you’d never let me in.”

The air felt colder, but not in a bad way—just… different. As she stepped closer, you realized this meeting was about to change everything.
