บท 223: Welcomed by a Monster

I should head back. It’s too late in the night now and Hayden is probably sleeping. If I knock on his door now, I’d just disturb him and wake him up from his slumber. So many reasons ran through my mind as I stood there in front of his door in silence without moving. My body wouldn’t move as my fear started taking over. Suddenly, all I wanted to do was walk away from the door and head back to the safety and sanctuary of my own bedroom.

Deep down, I knew that all those reasons that my mind was conjuring up were nothing more than convenient excuses for me to head back so that I wouldn’t have to face Hayden right now. The truth was that I was scared.
