Ever since my wife got pregnant, strange things have been happening around our house. Our bathroom was constantly swarming with spiders. And my wife’s behavior grew increasingly bizarre. She started keeping secrets, her temper flaring up at the slightest provocation.
One night, while I was asleep, she savagely bit my neck, coming terrifyingly close to severing my artery. Chloe frantically explained it was just hormones, unbalanced by the pregnancy. I stared at the thick black hair covering her legs, not entirely convinced. The next day, she secretly left for her family’s remote estate.
I discreetly hired a private investigator, only to discover she’d been hiding something from me for three whole years!Deep in the night, an urgent call of nature stirred me awake. Still groggy, I tried to get up, but something fuzzy and round was pressing down on my chest.
I couldn’t budge it. I grabbed my phone for light and nearly screamed. All grogginess vanished as I tumbled off the bed onto the floor. Right there on the bed, staring back at me, was a spider the size of a dinner tray. Its eight glowing green eyes were fixed on me, and my heart nearly stopped beating. I scrambled to my feet, desperate to escape the room.
But the next second, the world spun, and I blacked out.”David? What’s wrong, David?”Still hazy, I felt someone shaking me. My face drained of color as the memory of that horrifying spider flashed back.”A spider! A giant spider!”
“David, what spider? Did you have a nightmare?” Chloe quickly got out of bed, her face etched with worry, gently stroking my cheek.Seeing her kind, beautiful face, I slowly calmed down and immediately recounted what had just happened.”David, you must be stressed about my pregnancy, worrying about me and the baby.
It’s just a nightmare.”Her explanation made sense, and I nodded. After all, where in the world would you find a spider the size of a dinner tray? But the dream felt so incredibly real, like I was truly there. Just as I was about to drift back to sleep, I noticed Chloe’s arms were covered in thick, dark hair!Chloe caught my gaze and hastily explained, “David, it’s probably just my hormones, unbalanced because of the pregnancy.”I nodded, though her hormones seemed to be wildly out of whack.
