THAT WINDOW

POV - DRISTI

-----------------

Why can't I sleep now? Is there something wrong? I'll just take a look at that window... Oh no, I didn't close it! Yes... I'm really afraid to go near this window! Because... I saw a murderer standing near my window! He lifted his hand! I saw his axe cutting through human flesh... Yes... If I remember correctly, I was 17 years old. My new neighbor had just arrived here. He was a middle-aged man with a beautiful wife. It had been one month, but his behavior was so creepy. He loved to kill anything, even dogs or cats. He loved to kill them and use his axe to cut them into pieces. I'm the only one who knows about this because his room window is near my bedroom. I can see everything from here. After that, he started targeting human victims. Missing people were reported in our village, and that day I witnessed it too. He killed his own wife and enjoyed cutting her flesh into pieces. Then, I was the one who put him in jail. While the police were arresting him, he just smiled towards me. That smile became my nightmare. That's why I'm still afraid to go near that window. I can't sleep now, but after all these years... Why can't I sleep now? Why do I remember that man? The clock ticks at 12:00 am. I hear something! But this sound is familiar. It's coming from that window! I slowly wake up and get closer to the window. Then, I see a man with an axe standing near that window in the moonlight. I see his smile...
