The streetlights were dim as the mist enclosed it in its mysterious grip. She peered out of her window into the darkness, was there someone out there or was it her imagination?

Looking out of her window, she thought briefly, for a moment, she saw a shadow hidden in the darkness of the night, obscuring itself from view.

In a state of panic hiding behind the folds of her curtains. Watching for any sign of movement.

Her mind by now, racing with uncertainty she glances at her front door.
As she approaches the door her heart thumping in her chest like a speeding train.

Wondering if she doing the right thing by opening the door? But, her curiosity now aroused. As lately, as there have been a lot of break-ins in the neighbourhood.

Bravery overtook her fears as she opened her front door and quickly glanced around.

Surprisingly, all looked peaceful and quiet. As she stood there for a while, noticing nothing. Relieved, she turned around and went back in.

She couldn't help but wonder, if it was all just in her mind after all?
