<\/figure>\n\n\n\nI didn\u2019t know what was happening while I slept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One day, I couldn\u2019t take it anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I set up a hidden camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My hands were shaking. I knew if he found out, the consequences would be unbearable. But I needed the truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That night, everything went as usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The pill. Darkness. Sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The next day, after he left, I locked the door and played the recording.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At first \u2014 nothing unusual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was lying there. Sleeping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then the door opened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He walked in slowly. Approached the bed. Sat beside me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I stared at the screen, frozen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He leaned closer\u2026 and started stroking my hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gently. Almost tenderly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But something was wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It wasn\u2019t normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He began to whisper:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Finally\u2026 now I can stay with you longer\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A chill ran through me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He wasn\u2019t talking to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He was talking to something inside me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And then\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
it happened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My body, on the recording, moved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My fingers twitched slightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I stopped breathing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I was supposed to be unconscious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He noticed it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His eyes lit up with something strange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 You can hear me\u2026 I know you can\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And in that moment\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I opened my eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But they weren\u2019t my eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They were empty. Cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lifeless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Staring straight at him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And\u2026 they smiled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I shoved the laptop away in terror. My heart was pounding so hard I could barely breathe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That wasn\u2019t me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The recording kept going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He let out a quiet laugh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 That\u2019s it\u2026 you wake up when she falls asleep\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Slowly, against all instinct, I looked back at the screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 Soon\u2026 forever\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My body sat up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The movements were unnatural, almost mechanical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As if someone else was controlling me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I raised my hand\u2026 and touched his face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then he said something that will haunt me forever:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 I\u2019ve been waiting for you\u2026 not her\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the recording, I leaned closer to him\u2026 and whispered something into his ear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The sound was barely audible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I turned up the volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And when I finally understood the words\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
my blood ran cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2014 She\u2019s starting to figure it out\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I slammed the laptop shut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Silence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Heavy. Suffocating silence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He knows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Or rather\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
something inside me does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Slowly, I lifted my eyes toward the bedroom door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was closed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the handle\u2026 moved slightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And that\u2019s when I realized something truly terrifying:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
maybe the pills don\u2019t put me to sleep\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
