The last person I expected to see at the funeral was my bitch ex-girlfriend, and she had the balls to bring along her new boyfriend. I wish my arms were not tied up in this kapur barus* smelling shroud, so I could choke the miserable life out of her.

My family, especially my mom, was sobbing uncontrollably around me. I wish she wouldn’t see me in this state.

Then something tingled in my muscles; I felt the rough fabric brushed against my skin. I tried moving my arms and succeeded. My mom gasped, “Allah!” and fainted.

Everyone stood up and flee, except my ex and her boyfriend. I struggled harder and freed myself.

“Come here, you bitch!” I screamed, but all I could hear was croaked moaning coming out of my throat. I grabbed my ex and an overwhelming hunger took over me. I buried my teeth into her flesh.

*Camphor. Used in Muslim funerals to wash the body.
