1. The old guy staring at us
"Rachel! Don't do that!" Rachel had just opened the curtains in Rose's bedroom. Rose and Rachel have been friends for as long as they can remember and shared an apartment in the middle of a big city.
"Close it now! I need sleep!" But she didn't close them. Instead she'd jumped on the bed and tickled Rose.
"No!... No!... Stop it!" Rose tried to say while gasping for breath. She tried to move away and finally pushed Rachel off the bed and sat on her stomach.
"Revenge is sweet!" She said happily.
"Yes, it is. Now get your fat butt off of me!" Rose stood up and went to the bathroom to change. Fully dressed she walked into the kitchen to make breakfast.
"I smell bacon!" Rachel yelled and ran into the kitchen trying to grab some bacon from the frying pan. Rose hit her hand and she pulled it away, still staring at the bacon. After five minutes of staring the bacon was done. Rachel grabbed her plate and took most of the bacon, as always. She sat at the table and took a sniff of the delicious smell. A smile appeared on her face as she ate all of her bacon in a minute. Rose hadn't even begun and put the rest of the bacon on a plate together with two fried eggs. Rachel started staring at the bacon again and Rose gave hers to Rachel.
After eating bacon with a smile on her face, Rachel picked up the plates, put them in the dishwasher and grabbed her laptop. Rose sat on an armchair near the window looking at the wonderful view of the big city. She picked up her book and began reading it. She went to the movie 'The Hobbit' last week and decided to read it. Rachel already read it twice and was constantly talking about the movie and how in love she was with the adventures the company made. Rose put the book down after reading the last sentence.
"I'm bored! Let's go outside and go shopping or something!" Rose looked up and saw Rachel sitting upside-down on the black couch. She tried to hold in her laughter as she nodded. Rachel jumped up and went to get her bag. "Well, what are you waiting for?" She said impatiently. Rose grabbed her coat and walked, arm-in-arm with Rachel, to the nearest shop.
After shopping for an hour they went to find a café. They plopped on the chairs and ordered hot chocolate. The waiter brought their chocolate and they began drinking it with small sips. They looked at each other and saw chocolate on the others upper lip. They both started laughing and pointing to the other while trying to say: "You have a chocolate mustache!" Both immediately reached for a napkin to wipe it off.
They walked home after hours of shopping and still laughing at the other. Rose felt someone looking at her. She'd felt it all day long and now it was only getting stronger.
"Don't look, but there's an old guy staring at us." Rachel whispered in Rose's ear. Curiosity took over and Rose looked over her shoulder to see an old guy with a long grey beard and long grey hair to match his beard. He wore a grey coat and had a walking stick even though he looked completely healthy. The two friends took a turn to the right, walking away from their apartment. Rachel looked over her shoulder and saw the man following them. Rose grabbed Rachel's hand and took off running. She took a turn left into a dark alley and bumped into someone with Rachel. She fell and hit the ground with her head. She saw a person with a grey beard as the darkness took over.
