He awoke, as he often did, in the middle of the night. His duvet was tangled from the man’s lack of sleep, and his right hand hung off the side of the bed. Groaning, he rubbed his eyes with his other hand and tried to locate the piercing red figures on his LED alarm clock. 03:03.

Love it!
I smiled!
Me too. Funny story.

Great story and loved the twist at the end.
Oh yes. Oh very much yes.
Oh my that is scary.
Definitely chilling. I want to know more!
