My Bed

I am an Indian living in Saudi Arabia. Since my childhood, I've been living in KSA. Now, it's been 12 years in my house and I hadn't experienced anything strange until last month. But since then something creepy has been disturbing me and my younger sister. It's been my bed in which I'm sleeping. Last month I was allowed a room for myself, the room was devoid of any furniture. So my parents had to get new furniture and a cot for me. They finally managed to get a metal cot to satisfy me for the present. Then it all started.

Everyday I began to wake up sweating and panting. Scary dreams became customary in my sleep. I study at a table which is situated opposite the bed. Whenever I sit at the table, I hear the metal cot creaking with no reason to cause such a thing. I first thought it was because of the slight breeze. I must sound crazy but I've experienced it all. So as an attempt to find out the reason for the creaking, one day I shut all the windows and the door. I sat at the table with my ears alert. Then again, I heard it creak. Even my sister has experienced this creaking noise. Then one day, I made my sister sleep in the room all alone just to know her experience. The next day, she told me she didn't get sleep until 3'O clock in the morning. And she woke up sweating and panting. She also told me that she too had had a scary dream.

But when we told this to our parents, as most parents do, they too didn't buy our words.

But we insisted and my father agreed to sleep a night in that bed. But the strangest thing is that he didn't experience anything scary. So, he didn't pay any attention to what my sister and I had said. So, I guess it's targeting us kids, whatever it is. What shall I do now? I'm still sleeping in the same bed.
