The Man
I just finished putting Carlos (her little brother) to bed and I went to sleep because I was pretty tired too. It was 10 in the night and my parents still weren't home from work so I was stuck babysitting him all afternoon. In my room, I was on my phone going through Instagram when the door opened and I looked above my covers to see Carlos in tears! I asked him what had happened and he said, "The Man picked me up!" I was shook and was blank for a second but managed to say, "What man?" He pointed to the end of the hall, dark and scary. I managed to see a slight blackened figure just standing there. I was startled and blinked and the figure was gone. "Carlos, there's no one there! Why don't you sleep with me tonight?" Still sobbing, he nodded and crawled next to me. I held him tight and told him, "It's alright." I was scared myself so I was a still a bit shaken. When I looked back at Carlos to see him soundly asleep, I looked back across the wall the figure was there again! My heart was POUNDING and it pointed to Carlos and then vanished. I called my parents in fear and they hurried home in 10 minutes. They said that I was hallucinating and Carlos was probably just having a nightmare. They're telling me to take therapy classes and now I have a session tomorrow. Help me (my name here). I'm scared for my little brother.
