Someone Touched Me Last Night

I still can’t stop thinking about what happened last night.

I woke up in the middle of the night feeling thirsty and went to the kitchen to get some water. Everything was quiet, the apartment was dark, and nothing seemed unusual. After I drank some water, I went back to my room.

When I entered, I glanced at the mirror and noticed a shadow. At first, I thought it was just mine. But when I took a step forward… the shadow didn’t move.

For a moment I just stood there, trying to understand what I was seeing. And then I suddenly felt a light touch on my shoulder.

I immediately turned on the light.

The room was empty. No one was there.

Since then, I keep asking myself the same question: was it just a strange dream while I was half-awake… or something else entirely?

What do you think could have happened? And who — or what — could have scared me that night?
