Jorge's Worst Nightmare: A Tale of Unseen Terror

Jorge's Worst Nightmare

By Enes ÖzölkePublished 3 years ago 2 min read

Jorge had always been a brave man, or so he thought. He scoffed at horror movies and claimed he wasn't afraid of anything. But one fateful night, Jorge's bravado was put to the test.

Jorge had just finished working late at his office and was walking home. It was a dark and foggy night, and the streetlights flickered ominously. Jorge had an eerie feeling that someone was following him, but he dismissed it as paranoia.

As he turned the corner, he saw a figure standing in the middle of the road. The figure was dressed in black and had a face that was covered in shadows. Jorge felt his heart race as he approached the figure.

"Who are you?" Jorge asked, trying to sound brave.

The figure didn't respond. Instead, it just stood there, silently watching him.

Jorge started to back away, but the figure suddenly lunged at him. Jorge tried to run, but he felt something grab his ankle, causing him to fall to the ground.

As he lay there, struggling to get free, the figure leaned over him and whispered in his ear, "I've been waiting for you, Jorge."

Jorge was paralyzed with fear. He couldn't move or speak. The figure continued to whisper in his ear, telling him about all the terrible things that were going to happen to him.

Jorge's nightmare didn't end that night. For weeks, he would see the figure in his dreams, and he would wake up drenched in sweat, unable to shake the feeling that he was being watched.

Jorge realized that nothing was the same after that terrifying night. He struggled to go out at night and his heart raced when he saw anything moving in the shadows.

One day, a friend invited Jorge to a party. Despite his friend's insistence, Jorge hesitated to go, knowing he would have to walk in the dark again. As he walked, he heard a screeching sound like a screaming cat and hesitated for a moment. He rubbed his eyes and saw something moving in the darkness, but this time, instead of backing away, he mustered up the courage to keep moving.

At the party, he had fun and talked with his friends. But as the night wore on, the party slowly came to an end. Jorge left to go home and started walking on the dark streets again.

Once again, he felt that terrifying feeling and his heart raced. But this time, he saw a figure standing right in front of him. The figure was partially lit by the light on his face, and it stood right in the center of Jorge's heart.

Jorge was frozen with fear. He spoke in a choked voice, "W... who are you?"

The figure didn't answer, just stood still.

Jorge took a step forward nervously, and the figure took a step forward too. He stepped back, and the figure stepped back too. He panicked and started to run away, and the figure ran after him.

But the figure's legs never seemed to get closer to him. Jorge realized that the figure was on a different plane than him and turned around to watch it disappear.

Jorge ran home without fully understanding what had happened. The only question that plagued him that night was: who was that figure and why did he encounter it?
