A retail cashier is checking out an elderly couple when she notices the man's black eyes. Instantly, everything goes quiet, and she has a visceral reaction to what she is witnessing.
I received the following account:
"Hello. Thanks for reading my story. I work retail in Washington D.C. I’m checking this sweet old couple out at the register. Having a wholehearted typical retail worker speaking to customer conversation and then BOOM! I look into the husband's eyes for the first time. This man has jet-black eyes. The store goes silent. No one’s speaking. I’m overcome with an overwhelming feeling of dread. I wasn’t exactly terrified, I was more entranced. Again the whole store is DEAD silent. It’s as if I’ve been gripped from my reality and brought into this old man’s dimension.
I wish I could tell you I looked at my surroundings to see why everyone went quiet but I was just so overcome with a plethora of emotions staring into this man’s completely black eyes that I just physically couldn’t look away. And then just like that, the man leaves with his wife. I hand him his receipt, and he takes his things and leaves. I was out of breath. I had to take my break early. I’m ashamed to admit I was almost ready to cry. I’ve literally never been through ANYTHING and I mean ANYTHING like that.
I did some research when I got home and I found out a lot about black-eyed children. What was strange about this situation was that the man had to be in his late 70s. What could this mean? It’s just so hard to imagine a man casually wearing black contact lenses. And these weren’t enlarged pupils. There was not an ounce of white in his eyeballs. And that feeling of dread, the silent store, and the time that seemed to go on forever. This had to be an encounter. I KNOW what I saw. And I promise you all this story is 100% true. I’m worried no one will believe me." J
