person A: I was so terrified last night! I heard a noise outside my bedroom that sounded like someone was tapping on the window!
person B: That must have been very scary! Did you investigate it?
person A: I did! I nervously peeked outside and found out it was just a bird that was jumping on a tree branch_comma_ which made it hit the window! I thought for sure I'd see a person when I looked out!
person B: lol yeah our minds can play tricks on us when we're nervous. I'm glad it was nothing serious though.
