It was a rough winter night, It's 2:00 in the middle of the night. The darkness is coaly, No moon in the sky. No stars like they're bored too.
I rub my hand to warm it up a little bit, Then I took out the cigarette box out of the pocket of my coat! I ignite one perhaps to warm my chest, as well as I was in dire need of nicotin too. It'll kill me one day. But the most important now, is to keep my focus.
As usual, I didn't sleep even a little bit. Waiting for my friend in my car, In that dark street. No light but the emitted of the flaming cigardette. Shit!! He's really late. I called him. damn!! why he doesn't answer!? We're gonna be late. We've a long journey and we must arrive in the morning!.
Before the cigarette was over, and before I took my cell phone to call him again. I was surprised by the back door of the car opening up, I looked back to find my friend entering the car, I'm gonna name him here Thomas. His shape was funny. Nothing was appearing from him only his eyes. The weather was cold that he wore everything he had as it seemed.
I: why you're late and Why didn't you answer my calls?
Thomas : I wasn't next to my phone, I'm sorry.!
I : I thought you was sleeping as a polar bear, And you said you wouldn't wake up in this cold. You know, If you were late just a little bit, I'd move without you.
Thomas : Don't worry, I'm like you, I didn't sleep either. But it looks like I'm going to sleep here now.!
Thomas threw his bag in the back before he expanded in the rear chair and cower around himself from the intensity of the cold.!
I : I was counting on you so I wouldn't sleep and then you wanna sleep.!
Thomas : Only one hour.
I : …
Before I spoke, I was surprised by the snoring of Thomas. It doesn't matter. I took the earphones. a little bit of music, and a lot of nicotine will serve its purpose.
3:00 after midnight. We had left the city. the road is empty, the tranquility abound the place. I wasn't even hear the sound of the car engine with that music and the voice of that artist I adore insanely.
Dead.!! Dead.!!
I didn't hear the voice of Thomas because of the earphones.!
Dead.! Dead!. Lauder, And then I realized that Thomas is talking to me. I took the headset out of my ears and said,
I : Hi!! What you wanna!!
Thomas : Do you believe in ghosts? And Does ghosts have the ability to be formed in human shape?!
Me: Come on, Thomas. Is that a question you asking me at this time and we're in nowhere.!
Thomas : No, But I remember one time I was traveling at night. I stopped to give someone a ride. I was wakeful, but sleep was overcoming me. Then, I said to myself, why not a companion talk to me in order to don't sleep! His form was small!
Me joking : like your form. hhhh…
He didn't laugh. As if the joke didn't admire him, or didn't understand it. then he continued : the guy was a weirdo. We Meet at first, He kept quiet for a while Before he started talking about the demons, I wasn't worried about it. contrarily, I found it a fun topic. Before I turned to him and then i didn't find him. He suddenly disappeared.
I : What do you mean? You mean he wasn't a human?
Thomas : I don't mean nothing, the important thing is don't stop for anyone.
And then he went back diving in a deep sleep!.
3:30 after midnight. the music suddenly interrupted, because my phone was simply ringing. Who's that idiot calling me at this time, I took my phone to found the call was from Thomas who was sleeping in the back seat. I turned to him and he was as a bear in his winter hibernate. For sure, He forgot his phone at home, and it's look like someone of his family is calling to tell him that.
I : Thomas… Thomas, Thomas, Someone's calling from your phone!
He didn't answer me. He was in the world of dreams, apparently. So I had to respond.
I : Hi!!
Caller: Hey, where are you? Why didn't you come? I died from the cold, and I'm waiting for you!!.
I realized something then, and my hands started shaking involuntary.
And I barely caught the phone and said,
"Who's with me?"
Caller: I'm Thomas, What's wrong with you!? Where are you now!?
It was really Thomas's voice. If Thomas is the one who's calling me. Then Who's the sleeping guy in the back seat of my car? I closed the phone and i put it quietly!. The sound of Thomas snore turned into a very terrifying voice. I turned back to him again, It's really like Thomas's body. But I didn't see his face. I looked to his hands and then I realized the truth!.
He isn't Thomas!. He is not a human being too.
Do humans have claws and hairy hands !?
