"How long do you plan on sleeping?"

The whisper echoed in my ear.  I could feel the cold from beside my bed. The kind of cold that brought all hairs on my body stood up. I kept my eyes closed.  I never like waking up from my sleep.  The moment i opened my eyes,  the tortures would start. 

"You should wake up and play with me."

The same female voice echoed again. I grunted loudly to express my frustration toward whatever the thing was bothering me. Then,  i felt a freezing hand grasped my right arm.  I let out a sharp gasp because the coldness was surprisingly shock me.

"Go away." I managed to muttered. I still stubbornly closed my eyes.  I didn't think i could handle the sight in front of me now.

In swift motion i was yanked off my bed and i crashed into the hard floor.  I pushed myself up and still shutting my eyes. I was on my knees when i felt something was behind me.  I knew by the coldness it gave me,  that wasn't a person. I bit my bottom lip and froze in my place. 

"You're awake!  Let's play!"

Play was wrong in many terms when it come out from the dead.  My hearbeats raising by seconds.  I slowly stood up.  I got no choice but finally opened my eyes.  I looked down on the floor still facing my back at the 'thing'. 

"Stop bothering me." I said slowly.  I was biting back my tears. No,  please i didn't want to cry.  I didn't want to satisfy them seeing how fragile i was.

"Let's play!"

I felt a grip on my leg and i was pulled backward.  My body crashed on the floor once again.  I pursed my lips to suppress the pain. I was dragged toward the door.  I couldn't scream.  I couldn't wake up my family.  I couldn't let them get hurt,  again.

As i was dragged outside my room,  i quickly grabbed the door frame.  I gritted my teeth as i tried my best to hold on.  I felt like my left ankle was squished very hardly.  I could felt the sharp nails digging through my skin.

"Let go.  Or I'll hurt you."

I shook my head.  No way  i wanted to lose this pulling and yanking thing since it involved my whole body.  The grip around my ankle finally gone but i was pulling my body at that time and i was thrown into my room.  I quickly crawled away from the door but i stopped.

"You annoyed me."

I stared at the feet that hovering in mid air in front of me.  I didn't dare to look up.  The feet itself already scary enough for me.  I bet it would be worse when i looked at its face. I tried to crawl back slowly because i was trembling furiously. My muscles became numb. 

"I just want to play with you but why are annoying me?"

The voice became harsher.  I just made it angry.  Well,  i always made this things angry.  They were things filled with anger,  hatred,  vengance and ruthless desires after all. I was suddenly lifted up into the air.  Now, i had a face to face time with the thing.  I found myself hard to breath as my cursed eyes took in the sight.

A lady with messy long white hair,  pale face with her neck was bleeding and a deep wound slashed through her throat. It was wearing a torn old dress. The pale white eyes stared at me in anger.  The stare was like gazing right into my soul. I somehow knew the emotions resides in the eyes.  Anger,  frustration,  hatred,  jealousy.

"Stop.  Let me go." I pleaded once i caught my breath again.  It smirked.  I narrowed my eyes in realization at my mistake.  Before i could utter any words i was thrown at the other side of my room.  My back hit the wall hard.  I slumped onto the floor.  I rubbed the back of my head that crashed into the wall moments ago as i tried to stand up.
