One Man

The first time I saw a man who had black eyes, black clothes, and hovered by my window I was only 5 or so. I remember this day very clearly.

My mother and I were living in an apartment and I had my own room. When I was going to bed one night I saw a man hovering outside my window. So something I must mention is that I lived on the 2nd story with no fire escape or balcony. He didn't seem happy or angry just mildly irritated and observant. He didn't talk to me or do really much at all, but I did run to tell my mother about the man in the window. She didn't let me to back to my room that night, but I didn't see him again after that for a long time.

Recently he has been showing up in windows and reflections again, but never stays very long. The man looks to be about 25. I feel more like he is trying to protect me then harm me. I have tried talking to him, but he just leaves. I don't know if he is one of these "monster creatures" everyone one is talking about, but he is defiantly not harmful to me and I think of him as a silent protector.
