Kapitel 64: [Bonus chapter] The thing about the fingers

Zi Mei was following Darren as he walked towards her house. He had sniffed around her house before knocking on the door. She had initially wanted to jump on him and give him a jump scare but stopped when he started sniffing around, like a dog would sniff the air if they caught a whiff of something. So, she hid behind a lamppost to see what he does next.

He stuck a finger through the louvre of her outer wooden door and then it impossibly lengthened and snaked down inside, presumably to go under the inner door inside. The sight of this made her skin crawl.

Zi Mei shivered as fear enveloped her. Whatever that thing is, it is NOT Darren. It looked like Darren and possibly sounded like him. But no human, much less Darren, could do what this thing just did. She slowly took a few steps back from the lamppost and walked slowly backwards away from the street. Then making sure that Darren is still engrossed with his finger still through her door, she turned and ran.
