It was almost three in the morning when you heard a noise coming from the front door. Someone was trying to break into your house.

Startled, you ran to your room and lay down, pretending to be asleep. A few seconds later, you heard the door open.

Low voices echoed through the house.

He's here. Search every room.

There were four people: three men and one woman. They hadn't gone to her house to rob it. They were looking for a man who, for some reason, was already inside.

You remained motionless, with your eyes closed, while you heard footsteps, doors opening, and furniture being moved.

Until a voice shouted:

• I thought!

There was movement in the hallway. They finally found the man they were looking for.

But after that, one of the thieves looked around the house.

— We're already here. Let's grab everything we can.

And that's exactly what they did.

You heard drawers being opened, objects being taken out, and footsteps throughout the house. You tried to remain silent, hoping that no one would enter your room.

Until the doorknob turned.

The door opened slowly.

One of the men came in and closed the door behind him. He stood there for a few seconds, watching you lying on the bed.

You continued pretending to be asleep.

Then he approached.

I know you're awake.

His heart raced.

You slowly opened your eyes and met his gaze.

"Calm down," he said in a low voice. "I'm not going to hurt you."

Outside, the others continued walking around the house.

He glanced at the door, then looked back at you.

But I need you to tell me something…
