First Night
It was like I was following a tunnel towards the light. This noise was coming from down this dark long tunnel. The light was reality. The tunnel was my deep deep deep safe world of sleep. There, I heard it again. Was that a doorbell? Was that someone pounding on my front door? In my confused state of slumber I navigated my dark new bedroom full of boxes. I made it to the loft window and looked down to see a woman staring up towards me. She couldn't see me but I could see her because the lights shined on her face. I thought "who the hell...am I dreaming?" It was 11:30 pm on a Saturday night. I was going to ignore her and go back to bed.... I was probably still asleep. But she was relentless she kept ringing the doorbell and pounding on the front door. Did she have the wrong address? Did she leave her husband? It wasn't the woman who moved out, maybe a friend? What the hell...... I better go tell her the sellers moved yesterday. I again navigated my dark stairwell. All the while this strange woman is still ringing the doorbell and pounding on the door. I was about to grasp the doorknob when I had this thought. What if there are two large men with her and I can't see them? They watched me move in and now my worst nightmare a Home Invasion. I have been having home invasion nightmares for about 2 years. I turned and walked back up the stairs to the loft window. There I could see this strange woman now walking away from my new home and towards her car. And I heard her drive away. It has been a full week in my new home and she hasn't returned.
