The Mystery of the Midnight Tapping

It was 2:47 a.m. Reem woke up to a faint tapping sound on her window. "Who's there?" she whispered, heart racing. There was no wind. No one lived on the other side. She pulled the curtain aside slowly, but when she looked out, she saw nothing. Her room was dark and still. "Maybe it's just my imagination," she thought, and turned back to her cozy bed.

A few seconds later, her phone buzzed loudly, making her jump. A message came from an unknown number. It said, “Why didn’t you let me in? I’ve been standing here for a while.” Reem's eyes widened as she quickly closed the curtain and crawled back under the covers, feeling scared. But shortly after, her phone lit up again. It was a photo—of her… standing at the window. Her heart raced faster than before! What could this mean?
