SPIRIT AND DEATH

TERROR 1

I hid my face with both hands that I opened wide and I used to close my eyes while moving backwards and shouting hysterically in the darkness. I feel like I'm alone in a strange place.

"No... no. .. no.." I said non-stop.

Suddenly I felt someone pull the edge of my shirt until I fell and was dragged. Frightened, confused, I screamed non-stop. But the more I screamed loudly and hysterically I felt my body getting further and further dragged away.

It felt like the back end of my shirt was pulled so tightly that I could not control my body and I followed the pull of someone mysterious and unknown to me.

Shouting for the sake of shouting I did but it did not help me at all even when I was about to put up a fight I instead felt my body being in the middle of a huge hot paved road and was emitting smoke like a fire just got waterlogged.

"Where am I?" I asked with fear and confusion.

I'm alone here without Dad, without the shoe store employees, and without someone I just knew who Rio was. I looked around me where the left right side of the road was full of bushes while I stood in the middle of the asphalt whose groove I did not know.

My heart started to stabilize, I decided to continue my quick steps, sometimes I ran to get to the end of the road and hope to get help. Far away running, I feel tired for that I walk while balancing the rhythm of my heart.

In my mind I just want to go home quickly or quickly go back to the shoe store to meet Dad. But the stronger I run and walk, the more I get tired and I can never get out of this big, smoke-filled asphalt road.

Crat crat crat crat crat crat crat crat crat crat crat crat crat crat crat crat crat ....

From a distance not too far away, there was a sound of someone, it seemed like I was cleaning something using a loud tool. I rushed to find the source of the voice and approached him for help from him.

About 200 meters away, I saw an old man hoeing on the grassy ground (large road edges/paved) quietly and casually. Thank goodness there was someone besides me here. I said in my heart while sticking my right hand on my chest which was going up and down very quickly.

I stepped definitely towards the Grandfather. With a breath I greeted him. "Excuse me, sorry Grandpa .. Can I join you here with Grandpa for a moment? I'm alone and I feel uncomfortable."

Without getting an answer from Grandpa whom I did not recognize, I decided to stand a few steps behind him. As if ignoring me, the Grandfather continued to clean and hoe the land before him.

About 5 minutes I was behind this mysterious Grandpa. Suddenly I felt a cold night wind blow my face and stab to the bone. There was a sense of awkwardness in my heart and it made my hair stand up. Not only that, even the fur of my hands and feet reacted as well.

I kept looking at Grandpa, hoping to get the words I wanted to hear but this one old man still didn't care about me.

Feeling that there was no choice, I approached Grandpa who was busy working. But as soon as I stood in line with him, I was surprised to see several large holes the size of a tomb lined up before me. Not just one, two, or three, but there are many.

The calm that I had originally gained turned into question marks and a wastelike feeling. One of the meals is like his already filled because it is mound-shaped and there is already a tombstone on it. I read the name written there carefully, "Maharani" I said half in a whisper.

I want to ask again, for that I look towards the face of the haughty Grandpa. But when I turned to the Grandpa and said, "Grandfather .... " Suddenly my mouth stopped and my tongue seemed stiff almost locked.

This is not true, my inner words and I retreated slowly because I wanted to leave Grandpa. When I felt far enough away, I stopped to reorganize my breath.

I was very tired and weak but when I imagined Grandpa's broken face and his eyes were almost out, I didn't want to stop here for long even though I was very tired.

"I have to get out of here, right away .." I kept motivating myself who was only able to step small and slow.

This time, I tried to get back to running, but my legs were no longer strong. "No .. I have to keep moving even if it's slow!" I said as I wiped away the sweat that was lodged in my forehead.

My gaze began to twitch, but I still did not see a bright spot from the direction of my trip this time. From the left, I saw a mysterious woman with long hair, looking at me sharply.

I was sure I thought that He was not an ordinary man like me. How can there be a woman in a place like this, at this hour, I pretend not to see her and

I pushed my footsteps faster. But what I felt was that woman was following me.

About 10 minutes passed. My heart rate is irregular, my mouth feels very dry to my esophagus. It seems that woman is no longer following me. Mumbles.

I decided to look back and it turned out to be true, He no longer follows me. Right now, I decided to stop and lean my extremely weak body against a large tree.

"Service to relieve my fatigue." said as he breathed out repeatedly from my mouth.

What am I supposed to do now? I don't know where I am, I don't know what's really going on with me, I'm confused about all my situations. "Dad ..." I complained as I looked down at the large smoky asphalt road.

Looks like I'll just have to walk on the asphalt. That's right .. Maybe that's the right way and I'll find my way home soon. "Dad .. I'm so thirsty .. I'm so hungry .. help me ...!" I said because I was so tired and felt like my stomach was empty.

Seriate....
