This is a piece from a chapter of one of my stories!!!

Sofia went to a hostel where she rented a room, when she entered she looked at it as a cozy room, a big bed well made with white sheets. He took a few steps looking at an old wooden desk that looked out on a window, the dim lights, a bathroom with a tub and shower. The decoration very old but beautiful, to see the bed felt it was time to rest, she left her luggage on a table, preparing to sleep. While she was sitting between both pillows, she wrote in a diary all the details that Malena gave her, the notes said how to find Rebeca, the address of the sanatorium, she devised a way to approach Laura without destabilizing her. Within minutes of writing down her ideas, her eyes became heavy and the dream won her the battle. From one moment to the next, she fell asleep with the diary, the pen and her cell phone in her hands. When the silence enveloped her from one moment to another, she felt cold, moved to open her eyes for to take the blanket, placing her things beside her, looking to the right of the bed. She was startled to see a man inside her room looking out the window as if he were taking care of her from external danger, when Sofia was going to scream, she could not, her voice did not come out. He sat on the bed trying to get away, watching for the exit and his cell phone, because the man approached his side stealthily. She closed her eyes to see that he raised his right hand to stroke her hair, touched her face, her shoulder, her hand, he was mesmerized looking at the engagement ring in Sofi's hand. -I gave Laura one, very similar to this one-, Sofia opened her eyes while tears came from her eyes. She could not say a word, she was shaking, her pulse was rapid, she felt a horrible chill. The silhouette approached her as if to kiss her, but when he touched her lips Sofia woke up as if it had been a dream, she touched her breast with her hand to feel her pulse, it was very real she told herself.
