The Sound Doesn’t Stop
step…… step……….
The sound doesn’t stop.
It was surely getting closer to Chika.
And then, in the sense of hearing of the scared Chika, who has become sensitive, an unpleasant sound is mixed in.
drip…… drip…… dripdrip……
It’s the sound of water dripping.
(No…… No, stay away……)
Contrary to Chika’s intentions, the sound was almost there.
It was only at this time that she left her door open.
(Waaaaah…… Stupid, stupid, I’m so stupiddd……)
She scolds herself for leaving the door open to cool off, but it doesn’t lead to breaking down this situation.
Then, the sound of that presence stops in front of her room. As if that was its goal from the very beginning.
(Please…… go away………… pleasee)
Her pleas are futile as the sound enters her room.
It stops in front of Chika’s bed.
The sound was at her feet.
(N…… o……)
She can’t even utter a word. Her breath was also stuck.
…………
For some reason, the origin of the sound stopped there.
Haaa…… haaa…… haaa……
Only a rough, beast-like voice can be heard in the room.
The frozen Chika, the still sound.
It must have only been a few moments but Chika feels like it has been a century.
She feels that she’ll be in danger if she moves. Chika realized instinctively.
But.
(……What’s in there?)
A 12-year old girl brimming with curiosity couldn’t win over her curiosity.
She slowly raised her face and tried to peek through the comforter.
fwap
At that moment, the origin of that sound, a black shadow jumped towards her face.
“NOOOOOOO! STOPP! DON’T KILL ME!”
Chika screamed with all her might.
The black shadow clings to Chika’s face and keeps licking it.
“No, stop it, I said stop it, you pervert!”
“Uwoof”
The black shadow barks.
……It barks?
“……Uhh, John?”
“Uwoof, awoo~”
The black shadow behaves like a spoiled child and barks. Rather, he’s not a black shadow but the dog they’re keeping at home, John.
“Geeze, don’t scare me like that, John!”
Chika pulled John off her face and smacked it on the head.
“……Kuuuun” (TN: It’s a whimper.)
The scolded John hangs its head.
“Seriously…… Where did you get in from? You were even tied with a leash……”
It was then, she noticed.
Fear isn’t fear if you don’t notice it.
It was too late.
That’s right, the sound didn’t stop.
