Naina was so tired that she sanked onto the couch and panted. It was actually a sweaty evening but she had to walk all the way home after netball practices. It was her habit to scroll through tik tok before having a shower.

"Woow this one looks pretty." she muttered by looking at one of her friends tik tok video. She scrolled through all the videos and didn't forget to like those videos which gave the aesthetic sense. She loved such videos. Naina saw a follow request from a mysterious looking tik tok account. She viewed the profile and it made her feel so weird. It was a man with his mouth agape and hollow eyes opened wide staring at the viewer as if to shout out.

"Wtf is this?" she muttered and scrolled through her fyp. Several minutes passed everything seems to be unsettling.

"Am I on the dark side of tik tok.?"

They were not merely dark but creepy. Her whole fyp was ridden with hella scary videos. All of a sudden the tik tok profile pic which belongs to that account appeared endlessly throughout her fyp. This time that image was slightly in motion. She couldn't find the videos which she always favoured and she felt so traumatised as she could hear a faint moan and a giggle out of those videos.

She trembled as she remembered the fact that she was all alone at the moment. All of a sudden she could hear a loud giggle outside her window. It was too terrifying to see her neighbourhood  people making the exact same face and staring at her window.
