you always noticed a werid shadow with orange eyes following you, stalking you from a distance

while it was creepy, you found it strangely comforting considering you didn't have a good life with no one, not even family to find comfort

one night, after arguing with your parents, you fell asleep in your bed in a rage only to awaken, seeing the monster staring over you, eyes staring into your soul

and yet... it didn't move.. nor flinch...
