Day 425

The tapping came at odd intervals from your phone's screen.
At first you thought someone was trying to prank you by changing your text tone.
It was always set to bird song though... and you lived alone.

You would try to ignore the tapping but as of late it had grown louder.
Your phone would jump as the tapping progressed to pounding.
It sounded like someone was punching a brick wall.

The pounding from your phone grew worse and worse
Small cracks began to appear on the screen, growing with every hit.
You feared what would happen if the screen broke.

It generally hit in sets of eight or twelve, you had no idea why.
Last night it stopped after seven hits.
An hour later is stopped after six.
