*Crash!!*
A loud noise came from the kitchen.
Their fighting again..
I hold my little sister in my hands, trying to distract myself, trying not to look at the crying face of my mother.
My mother who gave all her strength to stop my father that was choking my older sister.
I can't breathe. Things get worst day by day, this house became quiet and cold, my vision blurred. The sound of screaming and crying stopped.
My father finally let go of my sister. Mother hugged her tight while father went to the bedroom.
My memory blurred. I couldnt remember what happened next, but i remember the face of my distressed sister breathing heavily on the other room, crying.
...
It was quiet and dark, i couldn't breathe.
I hid underneath the thick blankets, praying it wont get me.
The dark figure went in my room
Mommy... My seven year old self cried out, not making a noise, nor a single movement. I could feel Its eyes on me, im scared what do i do? When will it leave me alone? Why dont they see it too? Do i have to suffer alone here with it?
Hh..... Hhh......
Deep heavy breaths, i dont like this, is this a dream? Why does it feel so real.. tears ran down my redden cheeks, and i closed my eyes.
...
What..? I questioned, it was daylight, im sitting in our couch in the living room.
'But i thought i was in.. ?' i couldn't remember, what happened? I suddenly noticed my parents weren't there, i felt scared, i searched every room and couldnt find them and ended up in one more room.. i opened it
"Sis..? Are you alright?" I asked standing still, worried about my dear elder sister who was under the blankets in her room
"Mhm.." She silently hummed
...
A certain sound of a motor vehicle stopped infront of the house, i guessed they came back, i opened the locked door for them, like before nothing change, its still the same family from that night.
Before closing back the door, i noticed a slight figure in our old neighbor's house, its been abandoned for how long now.
It scared me, i didnt know why and just closed the door, forgetting what happened
...
Time goes by fast, fear comes back, i know its comming back for me again.
I took my blanket and went to my mother, she was sleeping, i didnt dare wake her up and so i just slept in a space just near her, i was with her and yet.. im still afraid.
I want to sleep so i couldn't experience it again, but fear got too much of me, i became paranoid
Every minute ticked in my head, i prayed to God while hiding and simply tugging the end of my mother's shirt.
Its in the door, i just know its there
I can feel it, im scared. Mom.
...
" ••? " Father called out my name
I didnt hear him, i was staring off into the table infront of me, i felt heavy and tired
" •• " he called out again, this time i heard it and looked at him.
"Have you been staying up? Your starting to get eyebugs, its dark. You should stop if you are, you'll get ugly" He chuckled
'he still has the audacity to joke even after what happened'
"Im not staying up, i dont know why im getting these" i pouted at that statement, i used to get sad if i were called ugly
...
School
I had alot of friends at school
I was confident
And idiotic
Kind, they say
Sweet, they say
Giving, they say
Honest, they say
Bright, they say
I was all that, atleast what they say
As far as i remember, i was a mean shitty bitch who bullied my so called 'friends'
I remember almost poking a sharp pencil at a classmates eye and blamed that classmate, i dont know how i did it, but it worked.
And, i used sharpen my pencil and put the little leds that came out, to water and making my friend drink that water.
I laughed at my classmate because he was fat, i made mean jokes about it
I can never understand why i was given all that compliments, though i probably felt happy that i didnt get into trouble of what i did.
...
I was happy i was going to school almost everyday, i used to catch simple glimpse of the dark figure, even if its daylight, it scared me. So i was glad
Until, it showed up at school, i became paranoid again, my parents wondered on what was happening with me
I kept telling myself it was just my head messing with me because i used to watch horror movies with my dad, and i stayed with that.
I hoped it was
