I screamed and the bus halted to a stop. "What's the matter with you, kid?" scolded the bus driver angrily. My eyes was glued outside. Alex wasn't there anymore. Diana gaped, and helped me up. The bus drove back on the road.

"What did you saw, Emily?" Diana asked. I shook my head and she gave me a look that obviously means: 'Liar'. I sighed and told her that I saw Alex. Diana frowned. "Um... hate to ask but, why didn't he forgave you? You're his sister." I bit my lower lips. How could I tell her that I was the one who pushed Alex to his death. "I...I don't know," I stuttered.

At school, I could barely concentrate with my studies. Alex would never forgive me. But what can I do to make him forgive me? Mom doesn't let me go to the graveyard all by myself. I regretted saying that he was silly for buying books. I regretted everything.

'Don't regret now yet, Em. The fun had just begun. You'll regret even more...'

I gasped. The class was empty. I must have dozed off, I thought. I quickly packed my things to go to my next class.

Diana met me at lunchtime. She was just as always, gosipping about the newest fashion trend, her crush, romantic dramas, everything.

"I had to admit that your brother is gorgeous."

I frozed. "What?" I asked. Diana pouted childishly and cupped her handa around her cheeks. "I'm saying that I had a crush on your bro, Em. Don't you notice that he was popular?" I gaped and shook my head. My hand reached to grab a water bottle. Suddenly, someone screamed.

"THERE ARE WORMS IN MY NOODLE!"

Everyone began to panic. Some had fainted and some had vomitted on the floor. I could only watch. Then my eyes caught a glimpse of white on the air. I glanced upward and screamed.

'YOU WILL NEVER ESCAPE ME, EMILY!'
