this intense stare into my eyes and replied ā€œyou wonā€™t realize until your day comes. Wait for itā€ .. I just laughed and slept.
.
This all happened in November. In December, I changed my room from first floor to second because I didnā€™t get along with other girls, they gave me the room in second floor exactly above the same room I stayed before, and my bedā€™s position was in the same place where the girlā€™s bed was, at the corner.
.
Exactly after a month, on the Same date, same day Friday, same time 2am, I came back to my room, went to bathroom and slept as I was tired. I donā€™t know how much time later, but I myself felt a very strong existence on my body, giving me the same experience that the girl described. I couldnā€™t breathe, I seriously thought this was going to kill me. I called out for two girls who were sleeping in our room, I even pushed a steel glass that was on a stool near my bed. They never woke up. I collected all my strength, opened my eyes, and there was a huge Godā€™s picture on the wall beside my bed. I silently prayed help me and screamed ā€œleave me nowā€ and that instant, I felt freeā€¦ Whatever that was pushing me down and choking me left me within seconds and I felt like floating. Other girls were still sleeping despite I screamed and made noises.
.
I drank water and intended to find out whatever that tried to kill me. I went out, checked toilets, lobby, kitchen and balcony and it was 2.45am and couldnā€™t find anything. It was all dark, except an eerie yellow light near the toilets. I couldnā€™t find anything rational.
.
I still donā€™t know if ghosts do exist, but I donā€™t argue with believers saying no which I was doing before. All I can say is thereā€™s something out there that you donā€™t want to mess up with I wanted to tell this to many girls and our hostel warden. But many girls were chickens and I didnā€™t want to scare them because few of them already feel no so good staying in our hostel. I didnā€™t want to increase the fear because warden is a good woman and she could loose business. Nothing happened after that until I stayed, however they say one experience is enough to actually change the way we think or presume things.
.
My day had come just like that girl said. Obviously not every time and everywhere you could run out of adequate oxygen, that too exactly a month after, on same date, same day and same time as if someone had previously decided my destiny. Something happened 63 years ago that's haunted me my entire life. Iā€™ve never told anyone about itā€”until now.

Itā€™s official: Iā€™m an old man.

For the last couple years, Iā€™ve comforted myself by saying Iā€™m in my ā€œearly 70s,ā€ but math is simple and unforgiving. Today is my 75th birthday, and God, the years do fly.

 

Iā€™m not here for your well wishes; this is hardly a milestone Iā€™m excited about. Iā€™m glad to still be here, of course, but I find I have less and less to live for with every passing year. My bones ache, my kids live far away, and the other side of my bed has been empty for just over eight months now. In fact, once I cast my vote against that goddamned Trump this November, I may have nothing to live for at all.

 

So spare me your ā€œhappy birthdaysā€ and your congratulations, if you please. Iā€™m here because I have a story for you, and itā€™s one Iā€™ve never told before. I used to think I kept it inside because it was silly, or maybe because nobody would believe it. Iā€™ve found, though, that the older you grow, the more exhausting it becomes to lie to yourself. If Iā€™m being perfectly honest, Iā€™ve never told anybody this story because it scares me, almost to death.

But death seems friendlier than it used to, so listen close.

 

The year was 1950; the setting a small town in Maine. I was a boy of nine, rather small for my age, with only one friend in the world to speak ofā€”and his family, seemingly on a whim, decided to move 2,000 miles away. It was shaping up to be the worst summer of my life.

 

My pop wasnā€™t around and my mom was a chore-whoreā€”boy, was I proud of myself when I came up with that oneā€”so I wasnā€™t apt to hang around the house. With some hesitation, I decided the public library was the place to be that summer. The libraryā€™s collection of books, particularly childrenā€™s books, was meager to say the least. But within the walls of that miserly structure, I would find no undone chores, no nagging mother (God rest her soul), and perhaps most importantly, no other children with whom I would be expected to associate. I was the only kid with a low enough social status to spend his precious days of freedom sulking amid the bookshelves, and that was just fine with me.

 

The first half of my summer was even more dreadful than I had imagined it would be. I would sleep in until 10, do my chores, and then ride my bike to the library (and by bike, I mean rusty log of shit attached to a pair of wheels). Once there, I would split my time between unintentionally annoying the elderly patrons and deliberately doing so. One pleasant lady actually interrupted my incessant tongue-clicking to hiss a ā€œshut the fuck up!ā€ at meā€”the first time I ever heard a grownup use The F Word. Big fuckinā€™ deal, I know, but in those days it was unheard of.

 

The dreary days turned to woeful weeks. I had actually begun praying for school to start againā€”until I discovered the basement. I could have sworn Iā€™d roamed every inch of that library, but one day, in the far corner behind the foreign language collection I stumbled across a small wooden door I had never seen before. That was where it all began.

 

The door was windowless and made from oak that looked far older than the wall in which it rested. It had a knob of black metal that quite literally looked ancientā€”I wouldnā€™t have been surprised to learn it was crafted in the 17th century. Engraved on the knob was what appeared to be a single footprint. I had the sense that whatever lay beyond this door was forbidden to me, and therefore probably the most interesting thing I would encounter all summer. I quickly glanced around to make sure nobody was watching me, then turned the heavy knob, slipped behind the door, and shut it.

 

There was nothing; only darkness. I took a couple of steps and then stopped, unnerved by the totality of the shadow which surrounded me. I waved my hands in front of me in an attempt to find a wall or a shelf or anything to hold on to. What I actually found was far more subtleā€”a small string, dangling from aboveā€”but far more useful. I grabbed it firmly and pulled it down.

 

Back in the day, lots of lightbulbs were operated with strings, and this was one of them. My surroundings were instantly illuminated. I was standing on a small, dusty platform that looked as though it hadnā€™t seen life in quite some time. To my left was a crickety-ass spiral staircase, made of wood and appearing ready to collapse at any second. The bulb was the only source of light in the room, and it was feeble, so when I peered over the railing to see what lay below, the bottom of the staircase dissolved into the darkness.

 

I was beginning to feel scared. This placeā€”wherever I wasā€”seemed to have no business in a town library. It was as though I were in a completely different building. But no nine-year-old likes to let a mystery go unsolved. Looking back, I wish I could tell my prepubescent self to turn around, go back, do anything else besides descending that staircase. ā€œYouā€™ll be spared a lot of sleepless nights,ā€ Iā€™d say. But, of course, I didnā€™t know that thenā€”and I may not have listened even if I had. So instead of turning back, I took a deep breath, gripped the railing, and glared resolutely forward as I began my descent.

 

The wood on the railing was dry and covered with splinters. I immediately let go, holding my hands out for balance as I carefully traversed the staircase. It was (or at least seemed) very long, and with only the dim glow from the string-bulb far above me, my heart pounded mercilessly in the darkness. Even kids can sense when something isnā€™t right, I thinkā€”they just donā€™t always give a shit.

 

By the time my feet reached the cement floor at the bottom, the light from the bulb above was very nearly a memory. But there was a new light source, and God, Iā€™ll never forget it. Directly in front of me was a door, massive, and a deep shade of red. The light was coming from behind the door, and it shone out in thin lines from all four sidesā€”a sinister, dimly glowing rectangle. For the second time, I took a deep breath and went through a door I shouldnā€™t have.

 

In contrast to the dank room I entered from, the room behind the door was blinding. When my eyes adjusted, what I saw nearly took my breath away.

It was a library. The most perfect library imaginable.

 

I gaped in wonder as I stepped, almost reverently, further into the room. It was beautiful. It was smaller than the library above, much smaller, but it seemed to be almost tailor-made for me. The shelves were packed with brightly colored titles, both armchairs in the middle of the room were exquisitely comfortable, and the smellā€”my God, the smellā€”was simply unbelievable. Sort of a mixture of citrus and pine. I simply canā€™t do it justice with words, so Iā€™ll suffice it to say that Iā€™ve never smelled anything better. Not in my 75 years.

 

What was this room? Why had I never heard of it before? Why was nobody else here? Those were the questions I should have been asking. But I was intoxicated. As I gazed around at all the books and basked in the smell of paradise, I could only form one thought: I will never be bored again.

In truth, boredom only hid from me for three years. It was on my 12th birthday, 63 years ago to this day, that everything changed.

Before that day, I visited my basement sanctuary as often as I couldā€”usually several times a week. I never saw another soul down there, yet strangely remained free of suspicion. I never removed a book from that room, but instead would pick up a particular volume wherever I had stopped reading during my previous visit. I sat, always in the same deep purple armchair, and always leaving its twin barren and directly across from myself. That armchair was mine, the other wasā€”well, I suppose I couldnā€™t have articulated it then much better than I can now. But it wasnā€™t mine, thatā€™s for damn sure.

On my twelfth
