Seven days of horror

Locke ran into the platform in a hurry, and jumped into the car a second before the subway doors closed, alarming a little boy in the car who was sliding the screen of his mobile phone to glance up at him.

The little boy was wearing a white shirt and blue trousers, just like ordinary middle school students, but when Locke saw him, an inexplicable ecstasy filled his heart.

It was the little boy who told the bus captain that the mysterious old woman didn't exist after he was cut on the cheek by the mysterious old woman (if there was an old woman).

He wanted to go up to ask the little boy if he still remembered him, but he felt that he had to follow the 'story', so he followed his memory to his 'day' seat, sat down, and stared at the little boy.

The little boy's scalp was numb when he saw him, so he got up and went to sit in another compartment.

He wanted to follow, but he was afraid of missing the mysterious old woman, so he had no choice but to stay where he was. He closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, thinking that he would see the mysterious old woman when he opened his eyes again.

If I can really see the old woman, it means that Hector will appear beside me, he thought to himself, and settled down to wait for the old woman to appear.

Time passed by, and he opened and closed his eyes countless times, but the mysterious old woman still disappeared.

It was almost the stop, but the old woman still didn't show up, but the little boy got up to get off.When he saw the little boy approaching the car door, he hurriedly got up and got out of the car behind him.

This move undoubtedly scared the little boy. The little boy turned around and pointed at him as if he was facing a big enemy: "Why are you following me?! What exactly do you want?!"

"I...I...I..." Locke couldn't say a word for "I" for a long time. I'm afraid he didn't know what he wanted.

After a long while, he cleared his mind, gritted his teeth and said, "Do you remember me? That day, I shouted in the subway car, which alerted the conductor to check. I said that an old woman had scratched my face. Then the bus captain asked if anyone saw the old woman. You were there at the time. You said that from the time I got on the bus to now, I was talking to myself alone, and there was no one else around... Do you remember? ?”

The little boy was confused, scratched his head, and looked at Locke with a blank face: "But, I have never seen you... What day is the 'day' you mentioned?"

Locke was stunned for a moment, should he answer that what should happen 'today'?Doesn't the absence of that old woman mean that all this is purely my own illusion?Including Hector.Thinking of this, Locke's heart ached, he pursed his lips tightly, tears glistened in his eyes.

Seeing him like this, the little boy was afraid that he would attack him suddenly, so he left quietly.

Hector, where are you?Did you just leave me alone... or is this all my hallucination?He was powerless and collapsed on the ground, his heart pierced like a knife.

As a result, Locke was still "invited" to the staff lounge of the subway station, but this time the process was less "stressful". A subway security guard saw him collapsed on the ground and thought he was uncomfortable, so he kindly helped him to the lounge rest.

He took a break in the break room, thanked the subway workers, and walked home like a walking dead.

As soon as he got home, he curled up in bed like a child and cried heart-rendingly, crying for hours.

He was not reconciled, if all these were virtual images, why would his heart be so painful?He really wanted to find someone to talk to right now.

So, he dialed a phone call to his mother, and the familiar voice in his ears made his chest feel hot, and the tears that had finally stopped burst out of his eyes again.

"Locke, are you okay?" the mother asked worriedly, alas, how could the child be fine if he called home at one o'clock in the morning?

"I'm fine...I'm fine..." The words came to his lips, but he couldn't speak them out. How could he tell his mother that he had experienced a time reversal?

"Of course, my Locke is the best, isn't it?" The mother naturally knows that the child has something to do, but when the child grows up, there are many things that he has to solve by himself, and the parents can only give support and help from the side. encourage.

"Um... of course..." Locke took a deep breath, trying to regulate his breathing, he didn't want his mother to know he was crying.

"Go take a hot shower and go to bed, nothing can't be solved, right?" Locke's mother is really optimistic by nature.

"Um... Got it... I'm going to bed now... Good night... Wait, Mom, I love you..." Locke My heart doesn't seem to hurt so much.

Maybe it was because he was too tired from crying, or maybe his mother's warm voice calmed his heart a lot, so he turned over on the bed and fell asleep.

The next day (the second day), he followed the development of the 'plot' and called his colleague Jack and his cousin Sam.He called Jack to ask for seven days off, although he could hear Jack was slightly dissatisfied, but he didn't care, at the moment all he wanted was Hector to appear by his side again.

He called his cousin purely because he wanted to "panic" according to the "plot" and ask his cousin to squeeze out a period of time for him. How did he know that this call shocked him extremely.He dialed the number of his cousin's office, and a delicate female voice he was not familiar with answered the phone, which told him that there was no psychiatrist named Sam here.

He held the receiver, his heart suddenly turned cold.
