_________________________________________

I "woke" up sleeping on the ground, I saw my mom and my two sisters together on the bed.

I tried to talk but I couldn't, I yelled at my mom but nothing came out. My jaw was dislocated and I looked around and saw a vampire doll?

Kind of like the doll at goosebumps staring at me. At the same time I heard my mom say

"Bat di pa kayo natutulog?"

To my sisters but she didn't look at me. Then all of a sudden...

I got teleported to a dark place, like a void. I fixed my dislocated jaw and screamed.

"Ma! Ma! Ate?! Nasan kayo??!!"

Silence.

Then the doll from earlier jumped on me!

I woke up and fell on the floor, my auntie looked at me, worried.

"Anyare sayo? Bat ka nahulog??"

She said.

'Buti naman di totoo.'

I thought.

"Ah meron lang po ako napaginipan."

I said.

4 years- no. 5 years ago, and I still remember it.
