He came at midnight twelve oclock

  He came at midnight twelve o'clock

  Listening to the sound of dripping water in the bathroom, looking at the portrait on the wall that was hung up by my aunt, I lay on the bed, for someone like me who has not experienced much in life, this home has given me too many puzzles and too many things that are hard to understand.

  Tick, tick, tick......

  The sound was coming from the corridor, but it sounded like it was lingering in front of my door. I stood up tensely, staring straight at the door with wide eyes, and glanced at the time out of the corner of my eye - midnight! The footsteps seemed to be keeping pace with the clock striking twelve, a sensitive moment... a ghost!

  I won't be able to, I was cheering myself up in my heart, but the hand that tightly grasped the quilt revealed my fear without a doubt.

  In the room, the air temperature began to drop sharply. I was feeling a bit stuffy just before, but now my arm hair is standing on end. Of course, I'm well aware that it's not just the temperature, but also fear in my heart that's the main reason.

  "Who!" I shouted loudly, because just now it seemed that I saw a black shadow stopping in front of my door through the gap under the door.

  Bang, bang, bang! Three knocks, as if someone had knocked three times on the door. With each knock, my whole body trembled, and I felt a chill run down my forehead. I hesitated for a moment before getting out of bed and tiptoeing towards the door. As I grasped the icy doorknob, I could even hear the chattering of my teeth.

  Knock, knock, knock! Three times, and then three more. I almost shouted as I pulled my hand back, but instead, I summoned all my courage and opened the door!

  "What's going on? It took you so long to open the door! Are you hiding a man inside?"

  I stared at Huo Xiaoqi, who was standing at the door with a strong smell of alcohol, my mind buzzing until he pushed me into my room and walked in. I suddenly came back to my senses: "What are you doing! Why are you running into my room in the middle of the night!" I shouted, trying to stop him from pouncing onto my bed.

  It's useless! I suddenly found out that he was much stronger than he looked, and even with all my might, I couldn't hold him back. I watched helplessly as he pounced onto the new bed sheet I had just put on today.

  "You, you married into the Huo family, how much money did they give? How much money?" He threw his head back and burst out laughing, as if it was a ridiculous story. In fact, I myself also find it laughable. Money? The Huo family did give some, but not to me, I didn't get a single cent!

  And this marriage itself is a huge joke, a living person actually married a man who died a month ago, what's not a joke?

  "Get out!" I bellowed, he trampled on my dignity, even if this was a huge joke, He Xiaoqi was not qualified to mock me!

  My finger pointed towards the door, for him I didn't need to put on a good face, let alone that I originally disliked this kind of man who reeked of alcohol and stank to high heaven.

  He raised his head, put the pillow next to him under his head, and stared at me with a dazed expression. He didn't speak for a long time, but I got goosebumps all over my body: "Did you hear that? Get out of here quickly!" I raised my voice.

  I originally wanted to go up and pull him out, but with that kind of eyes, I instinctively felt the danger, so I shouted even louder, not just wanting him to wake up, but also hoping that others in the house could hear! On the second day after marriage, my brother-in-law slept on my bed. If my sister-in-law knew about this, how would I spend my future days?

  I still hope to make her feel better and let me leave the Huo family!
