It was a foggy morning which darkened the souls. (Mostly is regular due me living in Britain,) It was regular, just like any Monday. I had no idea what was about to happen in the next 20 minutes.
I was on the way to refill my coffee and of course to get a breath out of my office. Suddenly Gordon appeared in the hallway with his co-worker Ramsay. I am not even sure if it had been seconds until Gordon started bragging about how his salary wasn’t enough due to the lack of economy and the price inflation. I looked at him and said: “Can’t you just stop?” “Stop what?” Replied Gordon. “Disturbing the peace.” Replied Ramsay. “Stopping being yourself” I added. He seemed unpleasant with the choice and use of our words. (Which was my entire point, knowing that only thing that can shut him off is being mean) Gordon looked at us dead in the eyes and said OK with the friendliest tone ever. It was unexpected from him to reply with such friendly tone. I quickly realised that I was going for some coffee and had a ton of paperwork to do so I walked off without an excuse, grabbed my cup of coffee and got back to working. It was solid working and studying until 1 PM. I went to the lobby of the building to use the elevator which went downstairs so I could finally have lunch. When I stepped in the elevator there were 5 people in there. I could wait for the other elevator to arrive but I hated and still hate waiting. When the elevator hit the -4th floor we suddenly got escorted out with a bunch of men in hazmat suits. Everyone was freaking out. There were rumours on a gas leak happened but I knew it just like my name that nobody was calling a hazmat team over a gas leak in the year 2077.I tried to get my stuff back but the stairs were guarded by the guys in the hazmat suits. Elevators stopped working and I was drafted by the crowd until we were in open air. I went home early that day hoping this all really was a stupid gas leak. When I took off my coat and fed my cat, I opened the TV just to learn that there were aliens on our planet! The news guy warned us about how they could mimic our voices, shapeshift and kill us. It was a quarantine just like my dad used to talk about. (It was Corn-virus or something like that which took place in late 2019 till 2023.) I was lost in memories until I got interrupted by a knock on my door. It was my neighbour and he told me that outside was really dangerous and he could stay at my place for a day to make sure I was ok. His name was Dave and I knew that he played an important role at the Health Department so I let him in to get more information. He told me not to let anyone in and to check on their teeth. If they had perfectly fine teeth that could be a sign of them being an intruder. He left me with myself in the morning. I opened the television. It was the ugly guy from the news again…He announced us to check on people’s teeth and eyes. If the eyes were red and bloody that meant they were an intruder. Also, dirty nails were a sign too. I knew I made a good decision with letting Dave in yesterday. I got a knock on my door in the next 3 minutes which seemed like a doctor. The man was kind and introduced himself as a dentist. I couldn’t remain alone forever. So, I grabbed my Remington 870 ad opened the door. I checked his teeth which was fully white and aligned so I asked about it. He told me that it was because he has implanted his teeth. Which sounded reasonable. I checked his nails and eyes which seemed normal. After some time, my bell rang and I was only there to saw a man half naked staring at my doors peeping hole. His ribs were visible as he was a skeleton and he had a huge smile which reached the top of his ears. His teeth were…Perfect. He asked me if he could come in. I replied with an instant no and informed him about my shotgun. He seemed angry and asked me if I was alone in the house. I told him I had plenty of people here and yelled out: “GET OUT OF MY PROPERTY!” He was unexpectedly calm and spoke with a small grin on his face: “I can hear the whispers from your walls…You are safe …for…now…” The next day I woke up with a rang up my door. It was a bunch of men in hazmat suits again. One of them told me that they will be taking one of the visitors in my house for investigation purposes. I told them I won’t let them in but the guy told me this wasn’t a request, was an order instead. They forcefully took the doctor and left me alone again. I went to bed until it was night time just to forget the things at least for a while. When I woke up, I heard a knock on my door. It was that creep again. He asked me if I was alone. I replied with a No but his smile even got bigger. “I know you are alone…I am in your walls…” I quickly grabbed my gun and opened the door with a kick, aiming at him with a smile on my face. I shot him 8 rounds that night. I woke up with a call at 2 am just to hear heavy breathing and a voice telling me that the god was coming which really felt similar to the intruder’s voice. I never saw the doctor ever again or a god.
Yeah, so that was about its Jordan and Jessica!
-Grandpa we all know this is a lie! Replied Jessica.
-I believe him. Said Jordan. He was calm and smiled to our character. He smiled back knowing that everything was real…
