whispers

"Shhhh, have you heard about ... " A whisper slipped into my ear, causing it to twitch. I scanned my surroundings, but the source of the sound remained elusive. Soon, the same voice chuckled, "Heh, looking for me?" I jumped as I felt someone leaning against my back, but when I turned to look, there was no one there.

Have you ever had that feeling that someone was right in front of your face, silently judging your every move, even though you couldn't see them? It was precisely like that. The air in front of me felt like it had eyes, watching me, scrutinizing my every action.

I sensed the presence right in front of me, lingering for a moment before I felt it right next to my face. It was as though something was breathing near my ear. My mind spun, cycling through explanations from a draft to an invisible figure. "Shhhh, have you heard about how mad Leo has become?" The voice sent shivers down my spine, and I struggled to catch my breath. My heart raced, and I stammered, "I... I..." The voice laughed and continued, "Have you heard how he's in your city? Hiding, waiting, observing?"

My legs gave way, and I collapsed onto the ground. The presence remained unrelenting, bending down once more, bringing its lips near my ear. I couldn't move; I could hardly control my trembling. "Don't worry, if you haven't, you have now. So, what are you going to do?" The voice sang the last part with a hint of sadistic pleasure. "How about you ask for forgiveness? Maybe things won't be as difficult for you then." It paused to gauge my reaction. "We both know how this game is going to end, right?" The mocking tone persisted as it laughed once more, then grew serious. It whispered one last time, "Shhhhhh, have you heard that even the birds are shifting their homes closer to the dragon and away from its prey? What a wonderful sight, isn't it? What a wonderful..." It paused for dramatic effect. "Sight~."

After that, the whispers ceased, and the invisible presence vanished. It took some time for me to calm down. I rushed home, locked the door behind me, and checked every window and room before settling on the living room sofa.

I felt utterly hopeless and miserable. I didn't even notice when I fell asleep on that sofa.
