I shot up straight. What the heck? Someone was here with me!

"Who said that?" I yelped.

"You can hear me," replied a faint and surprised voice, a feminine voice.

I walked through the downstairs rooms, peering into each corner with Knox padding alongside me. But each room remained quiet and empty.

The voice and the blue eyes faded away until all that remained were my own brown ones, and the silence of the house. For some reason, I felt unquestionably lonely.

"Hello?" I said, feeling foolish talking to my reflection.
