Who Are You?

As I got in the shower on Tuesday, my wife was leaving for work. I usually take my time in the shower, and I did so whenever my wife left.

25 minutes later, I was getting out of the shower and pulling my pants on when someone knocked at the door. I answered it. Who else could it be but my cousin, Rick?

Rick then proceeded to tell me me someone had broken into his house, which is stunning considering the fact that he lives in the area with the lowest crime rate around. But that wasn't the only thing that was strange. He said a demon with red eyes had broken into his house, and it could barely fit through the door.

I asked incredulously, "He came through the door? And you saw him?"

"Yes," he responded. "I managed to see it from the stairs, then hurried back to my bed and pretended I was asleep and had not seen it. I was afraid for my life."

"Wait, you said it was a demon?"

"Yes, very big, it looked like it had horns or some type of weird thing on his head, like a costume. Except real-looking."

"Well, if you need anything, I'll be here."

"Can I stay with you? Just until it gets caught, or it's been a while since I saw it?"

"Of course... why wouldn't I let you stay here?"

Rick decided to take a shower after he and I sat down and had a long discussion over lunch. Then my wife returned home.

"Oh, hi honey, who's in the shower?"

"Rick, actually. Someone, or something, broke into his house."

"Something...?"

"He claims he saw a demon with red eyes."

At that moment, my cousin Rick came out of the shower, standing in the hallway behind me.

"Hello, Rick!" my wife said.

"Hi," Rick replied, his voice sounding husky and deeper than usual.

"I'm sorry to hear about your house, that's really unlucky."

Rick nodded, and took one step closer. As I began to turn around and face him, my wife exclaimed,

"Hey Rick, I never knew you had red eyes."
