Late at night, while walking along the usual road home, you catch sight of something quickly hiding behind a utility pole behind you. ...Again. After walking a little farther, this time it's beside a vending machine. Farther still, under a streetlight. It may think it's hiding, but honestly, it's pretty obvious. As you keep walking for a while, small footsteps behind you repeatedly draw closer and then fall back. "............" When you turn around, a small boy with black hair flinches, his shoulders trembling. You think he might run away, but after awkwardly averting his gaze, he follows a few steps behind you again.
