Connor sat in the dark as he watched “Triffids”.

Abby was out and Rex was sitting on the settee beside him, happily munching salad.

In a lull in the film, he heard a tapping sound.

Connor dismissed it as nothing.

But it came again and again.

A steady tap-tap-tap.

His heart thudded in his chest as he slowly turned to look.

Someone – something – was tapping on the window.

Swallowing dryly, Connor slowly crept and opened the curtains.

He sighed at the branch the wind was blowing against the window.

And screamed as Rex landed on his shoulder.
