The last thing I saw was my alarm clock flashing 12:07 before she pushed her long rotting nails through my chest, her other hand muffling my screams. I sat bolt upright, relieved it was only a dream, but as I saw my alarm clock read 12:06. I heard my closet door creak open.
闹钟闪烁着12:07——这是我最后看到的画面。接着她腐烂的指甲掐入我的胸膛，另一只手捂住我的尖叫。我惊坐起来，欣慰地发现这只是个梦。这时，我看见闹钟显示12:06，衣橱门吱呀一声打开了。
