The Midnight Man

I groaned while getting out of bed. Who would be knocking on my door at this time of night? The sun had just set!

Making my way downstairs, I pulled on a hoodie, keeping myself warm against the cold winter's night.

I unlocked the door and yanked it open. I loved in ancient house and almost everything was stiff and needed replacing.

I was angry at being woken up at such an ungodly time, and I was prepared to show this person my wrath.

"Do you know what ti-" I stopped myself from finishing. I was bewildered by the person standing before me.

He was... old? No, he was ancient. And very wrinkly. His fraying grey hair framed his face and his hooked nose almost distracted me from his crooked teeth embedded in his mouth. His thick eyebrows almost covered the wicked emerald eyes he had. Almost.

Then he spoke.

"May I come in please?"

I hope everyone is dealing well with quarantine and hopefully it won't be long until we can continue normal life.

Stay distanced.
