Ahhh~ Halloween, a very exciting day where you dress-up as a frightening individual and go from house-to-house for some candy. It was almost 12:00am and we finished trick-or-treating for some candies, I was happy with my pumpkin head, for it was almost full. I invited 2 of my friends to play some video games with me while eating the candy, we were almost by the door of our house when I saw a light in the bedroom. That's weird, I thought my family was going to buy a cake. When we entered the house, I pointed to the couch and told them to wait for me while I call my Mom. I dialed Mom's number and she immediately picked-up. "Hi Momi, my friends and I are in the house, we packed up the neighborhood's candy I tell ya!" I said with a smile. "Well, well, well. Guess who's going to be hyper." she said and laughed. " Hey Momi? Is everyone in the family with you in the car?" I asked. "Yes. Why do you ask dear?" she said, worried. "Well, I saw a light on in my room, so I thought someone was playing video games in my room." I explained. "Well, I don't think anyone entered your room when you went out for some candies. In this case, it might be a ghost." Mom said jokingly. "Hmmm... I'll just let it go then." I said, shrugging the part where she said it was a ghost. "My friends is at the living room, can we play at my room?" I asked putting a hint of cute pleading in my voice. "Sure. Why not... Just be careful not to break anything in the house, okay?" she said with concern. "'Kay. You guys be careful on your way home." I said. "Okay, dear. When we get home, I'll let you and your friends eat some cake, so don't fill up ypur stomachs with candies." she said, laughing at the end. "Sure..." I said. The beep that indicates the hang-up of the phone came and I ran to the living room to get back with my waiting friends. "Hey guys, sorry about that." I said, scratching the back of my neck with a smile. "It took you long enough!" my friend said, laughing at me. "Hey! You know that I'm a Mama's girl right?" I said. I walked to the stairs and called them to my room. It was clean, simple and smelled of fresh sampaguitas... "Turn the console on, I'll get some drinks so we can eat the candies." I said. They just nodded in unison and went to the 2 PS3s...

12:00am

I got some drinks in the refrigirator and went upstairs. I never ate my candy without any beverages because sometimes, the sweetness would get stuck in your throat and you'll choke for about 3 freaking minutes, It's quite annoying really. I opened the door to see my 2 friends playing some 2 player, Resident Evil 6. "Here you go, guys! Leave some space in your stomachs for some cake, 'kay?" I said. "Do you really think our stomachs is that easy to fill?!" my friend said with a laugh. I laughed and sat down beside them.

We were playing Portal 2 now. My friends called their parents for permission for a sleep-over at my house, which was immediately granted. As I just said, we were playing Portal 2 when I hearr the doorbell ring. I ran downstairs to see if it was my family. When I opened the door, I saw our neighbor. 'He looks quite mad.' I thought to myself. " You blasted kids and your video games... Get some sleep! Your laughing echoes throughout the neighborhood you know!" he said with annoyance in his eyes. "Oh. I'm sorry sir. We'll pipe down now, I'm really sorry sir." I said with tears forming in my eyes. From the looks of it, he looked quite guilty. "I'm sorry for shouting. I just want to sleep you know." he said with a smile, patting my head. "I understand, sir. We'll be more quiet." I said. He juat nodded and smiled at me before leaving our porch. I shut and locked the door. 'Yeah. We'll be quiet, alright. For about 3 minutes.' I whispered to myself while snickering. I went upstairs and sat down, relaxing my body at the carpeted woooden floor. "Who was at the door?" my childhood friend asked. "It was the neighbor. He said we should lower our voices." I said while taking the wireless controller from my confused friend. "Oh. Okay then." he said while putting another candy in his mouth. We were quiet for a while but I noticed that our voices was getting louder and louder at the minute. The menacing laugh of my dearest friends echoed inside the room when I died at a laser from Portal 2. I noticed that our voices and laughter are getting louder by the minute, but I just shrugged it. It was a mistake not to tell my friends to lower the volume of their voices. I heard a sound downstairs. It was a soft 'Pssst'. I stood up and opened the door of the room and stood halfway the corridor. I thought it was my uncle. My uncle loves to call me with a 'Pssst' because he knows that I will come out of the room and search for what was making the sound. I called out for my family but there was no answer. 'Am I imagining stuff again? Guess I'm high because of the candy, huh?' I thought while laughing. I returned to the room and resumed playing with my dearest friends. Just then, I heard it again, but with higher volume. Like it was close by. I paused the game and listened. I heard footsteps. It sounded like it was in the stairs. I can hear the wooden stairs creaking, step-by-step. It was getting closer. I turned off the PS3 and told my friends to listen for the footsteps. They said they didn't hear anything. 'Guess I'm going crazy.' I said inside my mind. "So... Can we open the PS3 now?" my friend said breaking the silence that stopped my thinking. "Ummm... How about we tell stories just like in a campfire?" I said, trying to smile. "Sure! Sounds fun to me!" my friend said. I smiled and they started with the story telling. I wasn't actually listening to the stories they told. I wss thinking. My hearing and eyesight is actually great for an average kid. Then my thinking was paused when I heard that sound, and it wasn't only me that heard it. My friends heard it too. 'Pssst'... We went silent. But it was immediately broken when we heard running in the stairs. The footsteps were fast and frightening. Every thump sounded like it was getting closer and closer. "HIDE!" I said then ran to the cabinet. It had 3 clothes hanging, which was very pleasant for me because it had quite a big space. If it was full of hanging clothes, I don't know where else I can hide. I went inside and stopped my breathing so I can hear the footsteps. I heard shuffling outside of the cabinet. Before I entered the cabinet, I saw my friend hide beneath the bed and my other friend hide behind the bathtub. 'What on earth is happening here?!' I thought to myself with tears forming in my eyes. The worst case scenario was the footsteps I heard was of a rapist, holdapper or kidnapper. 'Thump, creak, thump, creak.' can be heard by the stairs. When I was thinking of a way out of the house, I heard the doorknob twist and the door creaked while opening slowly. I heard the footsteps just in front of me, so I was freaking out. 'They might find me! I screamed in my mind.
