Title: A Great Morning at School

_________________________

My name is Elisha Putri, like last day, I always come first at school, there is only a security guard standing guard in front of the gate who looks at me like a demon, glaring, his cheeks full of mysterious burns, he said, every time I looked at the security guard, my hair was shivering.The school was quiet and creepy like a cemetery.

Because it was too early in the morning, I still felt a little sleepy, I went to the toilet to wash my face, after I washed my face, I looked at my school warehouse which at the door of the warehouse said ‘forbidden to enter’. somehow because of what, suddenly there was passing like lightning behind me, I immediately turned my head,

“who is it?” I said, there was nobody there, there was only a board that read ‘just cleanliness’.but after I looked carefully, there was a blood splash beside the board, suddenly, suddenly, there was a black shadow passing behind me, at once I turned my head, it turned out that the security guard in front of the gate earlier, his face was creepy, I spontaneously shouted “uwaaahh!!!!”, “what are you? what are you doing in front of the warehouse?”, he asked, “no, nothing what sir. I just pass by, sorry” I replied and immediately ran to my classroom which is at 7A.

The classroom was so quiet, I took the back seat, suddenly there was a hissing sound next to the class, I looked at the window, “who is there?”, I asked who is actually no one. As I was about to return to my seat, a child stood right in front of me with long hair, wearing a green white uniform covered in blood, and holding a book. Instantly I shouted as loudly as I could and ran towards the teacher's room, in the middle of the road I collided with my guard.

Arriving at the principal's room, I started raving, “hah.. hah... hah.... what.... what exactly happened?” I muttered in my heart, I accidentally saw a strange diary book on the school corridor table, I opened it and I read it one by one, until I saw the last page read “HELP ME!”, I read it one by one, written in blood, I spontaneously stood and ran while carrying the book, but suddenly the security guard dragged me to the warehouse with a rough. “is this what he did?!”.

I fainted for a while, and woke up lying in the school shed, covered in scratches on the hands, suddenly the security guard said, “so you know everything?, so, so, uh, are you going to help her?, or are you going to catch up with her?”, as soon as I get goosebumps, “what did you do to her? what's wrong that you had to kill him?”, and then the security guard told me at length that the ghost was named Arum, he was killed because he had caught the security guard stealing money in the principal's room, he said, the student was killed two days ago tragically, then kept in the school warehouse, until it was declared missing. “so that's the reason why the warehouse can't be opened and that's why the school is haunted! you murderer!!”, “yah, even if you say so I will not let you live!” suddenly the police came breaking down the warehouse door “hands up!!” said the police who prepared while carrying a gun, finally the security guard was arrested, it turns out, who had called the police was the headmaster who saw me dragged into the warehouse. “you are fine?”, asked the principal, “ya, sir I am fine, thank you” replied me.

After the body of the student was found and immediately at the autopsy at the nearest hospital, I saw the spirit of the student from the corner of the class while saying “thank you”, “sama-sama”. then the spirit disappeared, and the school was safe again.
