The girl

Here’s a short scary story in English: ⸻ I woke up at 3:17

a.m. to the sound of someone breathing in my room.

I held my breath and listened. Slow… heavy… right beside

my bed. Thinking it was my imagination, I turned on my

phone’s flashlight. Nothing. Relieved, I lay back down.

That’s when I felt it—warm breath on my neck.

And a whisper:

"You shouldn’t have looked."
