It all started with a simple walk on the park. It was close to night time, so the sky was orangeish and it felt a little bit colder. I was with a girl I am supposed to know. We were just walking, minding our own business, when suddenly, a man appeared from behind the bush.

I saw him look at me and then I felt that I had to run. So, I did. I ran as mad fast as I can with the girl. In my head, I knew he was going to chop my head off. I didn’t even have time to look back. I felt him follow me wherever I go. Each step, each turn, felt like a million miles. I felt heavy, and panic just creeps inside my head like the plague.

I saw a convent. There were hundreds of nuns inside the chapel and it gave me an idea to wear their clothes as a disguise. One of the nuns then escorted us to the elevator so we could hide. I thought I felt hope while the elevator rises up each floor, but the feeling of fear and anxiety never left me.

2, 3, 4, 5, 6…

Elevator door opens.

He’s there!

I frantically pushed the button to close the door. I couldn’t breathe well. I wanted to push the elevator down so I could get off it faster. When the door opened at the ground floor, I made a mad dash to the exit.

I was running so fast at the back alley of the convent. When a man wearing a blue polo shirt appeared with a gun. I felt the blood rushing to my head. Then he shouted at us, “I’m a police! Just run. Run as fast as you can, and you will see a small house down the road. You’ll be safe there!”

So I ran.

I found the house. It was empty. It has one tattered bed with dirty and dusty sheets. I lied down on the bed because I felt so tired. But the house just intrigued me. I stood up to explore all the corners of the house.

The kitchen looked like no one has cooked in it for a long while. The living room’s furniture are all dusty. The chandelier have spiderwebs on it. There was a heavy feeling in that house. I went inside the bathroom

When you enter the bathroom, you’ll immediately see the shower area, walk a few steps, and there is an open area. Maybe that’s where you change your clothes. Then a few steps to the left, there is another open area, a dark open area. It looks like a storage area, but nothing is in it. The bathroom was actually cubicled. I stayed at that dark area, I don’t know why.

Then it seemed like someone turned on the shower and started to bathe. I noticed that the sound seemed like no one was there. You know, when the water was just falling from the shower head to the floor tiles? Of course, I was curious. I had to find out who is taking a shower.

I slowly peered behind the wall of the cubicle I was in. Then I saw a girl, standing, with her hair over her face. Imagine Sadako. I was so freaked out of my mind!

And then I realized…

The reflection in the mirror was ME!
