Freddy's Buzz. Twenty-four hour short story



Source

My friend Freddy Marcano tells me that his ears were noisy and with a constant buzz.

He could not find an explanation and thought that it was the aliens who came to whisper things on his ears.

Freddy went to visit sites that investigate such things as paranormal activities, and they told him that that noisy was the way in which some phenomena began to be communicated with humans and that few people had those faculties. The last thing they said to him was that he should be happy to have those abilities!

However, he was so worried that he decided to go to a normal doctor to see the problem with the noise on his ears. The first thing they sent him was to do some blood tests to rule out any hearing disease.

With the results of these tests he was referred to the cardiologist. All the values were on order but blood pressure was very high.

According to the cardiologist, the noise that he was constantly hearing was a very common symptom in hypertensive patients.

After a while, with the cardiologist's treatment, the noise of his ears went way.

The alien hypothesis failed until a day that he was washing his face before going to sleep on his bathroom, his reflection on the mirror was blurry. “Oh well, might been the vapors of the hot water” he thought as he turn back and head to the bed. He never actually used hot water that night.

But he didn’t notice that the image was still there even though he was gone, it started to get clearer and it was his reflection, standing there, without him being in front of the mirror, the only difference were the eyes on the reflection were bright blue and his were hazel.

The reflection raised its hand and touched its side of the mirror, suddenly it began to disappear itself and when there was nothing left the part mirror that was touched by it, left some cracks visible enough to be seen by anyone, but it didn’t shatter the mirror at all.

Who knows what could have happen if that “something” that was on the other side of the mirror went through and lived amongst the humans and who can really say that it didn’t do it already?
