The Half Dead
In a quiet village, people spoke in hushed tones about the Half Dead—villagers who wandered back from the forest after being presumed dead. They looked the same but didn’t talk much and never seemed fully… alive.
One stormy night, Ada’s brother, Kunle, who had vanished years ago, appeared at her door. His face was pale, eyes hollow, and he moved slowly, like someone learning how to walk again. Ada’s heart pounded, but she hugged him, grateful to see him again.
As days passed, Kunle never ate or slept. He just sat, staring into the darkness, with a strange, haunted smile. When Ada asked him where he’d been, he only muttered, “Between worlds, waiting.”
One night, she found him standing over her bed, his cold hands reaching for her. His hollow voice whispered, “I came back to bring you with me.” Before she could scream, he vanished, leaving only a chill in the air.
Since then, Ada’s neighbors say she’s been acting strange—half here, half somewhere else.
