Yesterday/The Fears

I’m still… still shaken from the other night, but nothing’s happened yet. That feeling is still there, though… that something bad is going to happen. :x

Well, anyway… I got to play this song yesterday during church service. I’ve always loved playing the piano, but I’ve never gotten up in front of a crowd until yesterday, so… yeah. It was a… new experience. I’m pretty sure I did well, too – the whole place practically burst from all the clapping. :D It was… really great. A nice change, I guess you could say… And I wasn’t expecting to get anything, but someone (I’m guessing Lois or my mom) got me a bouqet of flowers. I’m… not sure what they are just yet, but they look gorgeous. (: They’re sitting in a vase on our dining table now. :D

After that, I got to talk to Arthur again (this was before I got on here and looked at the comments, by the way). It looks like his injuries from Friday weren’t too bad, but he has this… bandage around his arm that I haven’t noticed before. I asked him what happened, but he said it was nothing, just a scratch. :\

He was walking me to my car when he just stopped, looking away from me. I followed his gaze and saw that a man was standing about fifty yards away from us. When I first glanced at him, I could have sworn he was wearing a suit… But on closer inspection he appeared to be wearing a long-sleeved white t-shirt and some dark blue jeans. And… Well, it was too far away to be certain, but I’m pretty sure the guy was grinning at us.

You know, now that I think about it… I’m almost certain this was the same guy I saw a few weeks ago, right after youth group. And… the guy looks like the one in the photos that the police handed out…

Arthur was staring at him, and he looked… afraid. When I asked if he knew who it was, he just shook his head and started pushing me towards my car, telling me I should get going. And… well, I did. Said bye and left. But that guy… I don’t know, I don’t think I should have left Arthur there. :\

So, that’s what I typed up yesterday and planned on posting, but.. well, I recently got some information on my problems. :\A few people on my last post told me that the thing that is appearing as my grandfather could be something called the Archangel. It’s… some sort of creature that can look like dead people, apparently, which seems to fit what’s happening to me right now. I… I don’t know, I was skeptical at first. I mean… It seems a little far-fetched… but so does shaking hands with a ghost…

I think I… I started to believe as soon as I did some more research, and... there's this about a thing called the Smiling Man, and it matches the description of the killer in this area. :x Meaning… this thing has been active for months, maybe even a whole year. And… it was looking at me.

So, that means that I have two of these – what do you call them? Fears? – coming after me, or I have one chasing me and the other just killing people in my town. ._. I don’t know if I can trust anyone, either; someone warned me that Arthur might be the Archangel, too, but I’m not so sure. He… well… He seemed afraid yesterday when he saw the Smiling Man. I don’t think these things would be afraid of one another. :x
I don’t think I'm going to run. I… I still have a family that I need to take care of, and that’s my priority right now. I’ll start making a “Runner’s Backpack” just in case, but I’ll make that a last resort option. Also, some of you suggested I should get a weapon and not to worry, I’m not leaving the house without something to defend myself with.
