The story of my friend (Aom)

It is my friend’s story. He afraid of darkness and cannot stay alone at night. “Why are you afraid of darkness?” I asked. “I had ever seen something strange at night when I was child,” he answered. My friend told me about the story that made him didn’t want to be alone at night. “When I was child, I had my own room and I always slept alone,” My friend said. “One night I lay down in my bed and nearly fell asleep then I felt like someone stared at me.” “I opened my eyes and then saw a very old man sat below my legs near the bed.” “He is looking at me!” “What did you do?” I asked. “I didn’t know what to do just close my eyes and tried to scream out but I can’t,” he answered. “Suddenly, the old man pulled out my blanket and became closed to me.” “I screamed again with all my voice and then I was conscious when my parents came in the room,” “I told my parents everything and they said it was a dream,” my friend said. “Do you think it was a dream?” I asked him. “No, I don’t think so,” he answers with strong voiced. “I still see something strange when I stay alone at night.”
Above is the story that my friend told me. I don’t know it is a true or not, but every time someone stay with him, or he went to stay with other friends.
