“Blood is really warm,
it's like drinking hot chocolate
but with more screaming.”

"Iinkk..Iinkk.."
How noisy this old printer is! Ugh! It's already 12 midnight and this noisy old printer almost asks for a rest!
I feel very sleepy. Printing is taking me so long!
Everybody is already sleeping and all the lights were off except for the room where the computer is.
I looked for a cigarette. I had smoked plenty so that I would not get sleepy.
I was about to go to the living room when I felt cold. I felt the wind that caused my hair to rise.
I know all the windows and doors are closed because I was the one who closed them.
I looked at my back and there I saw the curtains waving. I was trembling with fear when I forced myself to walk when the computer and the light went OFF!
I got so angry because I could not finish my project which is due tomorrow because of this brownout.
And to my surprise the light at the bathroom got on and I saw three lighted candles floating near the curtain.
I want to run but I couldn't because I could feel my feet were nailed to the floor.
From where I am I could see a woman in uniform being harmed by a man.
Then suddenly, I remembered something, I know the woman! It's Stephanie, the muse at our school. The image was getting blurry and the wind is getting colder. I saw how she was harmed and raped. Stephanie was fighting but the man was too strong.
Battered, raped and then killed. I have seen all but they are all in the air. I wanted to help her. I saw a book, I threw it to the man but it just fell in the air.
After that, everything got dark and silent.

To my belief, it was all a nightmare. The next day I looked for Stephanie to check nothing had happened to her.
I saw her happily talking with her friends. I came near her and made a pat in her arm to know if she is really alive.
She is alive, strong, beautiful and still have her sweet beautiful smile. I sighed. It was only a nightmare after all.
"Let's go babe, they are waiting at the mall," a voice caught my attention. It was the first time I saw him but the appearance looks familiar.
When they are getting away, I remembered, I have seen him really! The man looked back at me. He looked at me with an evil smile on his lips.
The next day, it was almost 8 morning when I saw my mother reading a newspaper, which reads, "ONE WOMAN WAS RAPED, KILLED!!"
