Late Morning Paranoia

Every morning, at exactly 3:30, I wake up. I have the feeling as if someone is staring at me through the window. This is unsettling to me. I turn my night light on to regain sanity for a couple of minutes so that I may return to my dream state. Then, I hear the door open and close loudly. The sound of footsteps down the hall to my room disturb me greatly. I put my pillow on the top of my head, as if trying to protect myself from this threat. I hear a loud pound on my door. This pounding continues for about three minutes, then it stops.

I open my door to find it was now sunny outside, as if the three minutes were hours. I walk to my bathroom, and the shower is closed. I never leave the shower curtain closed because I'm easily scared. I open it to find out what's inside before I get dressed for university. When I look beyond the curtain I see blood. It was not just a tiny drop, it was more of a copious amount of blood. My curiosity gets the best of me and I pull the curtain open quickly. I then see something that sticks with me to this day. I see my dead body. Then I wake up.
