3am Habit

"Sandy,did you had a good day?" My mom asked me. While we're eating.

"Yes mom. Also my grades are good enough." I answered as I smiled.

"So anong gusto mong regalo? Anything. I can give it for you."

"Really?!"

"Yes baby anything you want ."

"Can I think first Mom? Sasabihin ko nalang po sa inyo."

"Sige pagka tapos mong kumain. Umakyat kana sa room mo ha?"

"Opo ma." Si papa naman ay tahimik lang nakikinig.

"Saka Sandy napapansin ko na na pag sapit ng madaling araw ay nasa cr ka?" Alam niya yon?

"Ah ma naging habit ko na po kasing magising ng alas tres." Totoo yon lagi nalang akong nagigising ng alas tres para mag cr.

I'm here in my room. Scrolling in my newsfeed. When my attention caught by a post. It says that when you wake up in 3 am there's a demon or lost soul beside you. But I didn't mind it too much. First of all I didn't believe that. If you're dead. You're dead. You can't do anything to harm anybody.

I fell asleep. After an hour I woke up and it's already 3am in the morning. I'm not surprised at all. I'm used to it.

I walked in my bathroom. I washed my face. Suddenly I remembered something. I washed my face again just to keep my thoughts away. I stared at the mirror. I saw myself. No regrets after all. What i've done is done.

"What are you thinking? Thinking what you've done 3 years ago?"

"C-candy?" P-paano ? Bakit siya andito ?

I stared at the mirror all I can see is the anger from her. The smell of revenge.

"Oh did you forgot me that fast? My twin?" She said with a creepy smile plastered on her face .

I suddenly felt the fear. I didn't expect this! She's already dead!

"No! I'm just hallucinating! You're already dead!" I shouted as I  point her in the mirror. She's just smiling there like a devil.

"Oh no no no,my dear sister. Didn't you miss me?"
She said still smiling. I suddenly felt the hard of breathing. I gasp for air. I looked at her she's now laughing.

"Is it feel good? Ate ? You did that to me remember?"

"I-im s-sorry Sandy. P-please don't do this to me!."

"Sandy,so you finally call me Sandy? How's the feeling Candy?" I'm gasping for air.

"I'm just visiting you my dear sister. I'm not going to do anything. I'm just playing with you. Don't you like it? Also it's not your time for now I will give you soooo much time"

"L-let me g-go C-candy. I'm begging!"

"Begging huh? Pina kinggan mo ba ako noon Candy? Diba hindi?"

"I said let me go!" I collect all my strength to shout even I'm gasping for air.

Bigla siyang nawala. Kasabay ng pag luwag ng pag hinga ko. Napa upo nalang ako sa simento at humagulgol.

'Babalikan kitaa!'

Patuloy lang ako sa pag iyak. I know kasalanan ko lahat kung bakit niya gustong mag higanti ngayon. I killed her 3 years ago. And I'm pretending that I'm Sandy and the one who died is Candy. But it's actually Sandy. I took her identity. I took her life. I killed her with no mercy. And I know that she's going to have her revenge.
