Deep Dark Fears

/FEAR 15-CAPTURE/

F

I had a bestfriend named Dinah and she had a boyfriend---Gabriel. The three of us are very close since we we're kids up until now.

Pero pagkatapos ng graduation ng high school, I told them that my family is going to move in another city dahil nando'n din ang school na paglilipatan ko.

Malungkot sila sa narinig nilang balita pero sinuportahan pa rin nila ako at masaya raw sila para sa akin.

To cheer them up, I suggest to them na why don't we hang out for the last time before I leave and they easily agreed.

Our place is in the rural area, that's why it had a beautiful and perfect weather especially by night.

By 8 pm, we decided to go into the forest to set our little fiesta. Have a fire, get drunk and listen to music. To sum it all up, to get chill.

Naglakad kami papunta sa bukana ng gubat. Madilim at tanging mga tunog lang ng mga hayop ang maririnig at ang pagaspas dulot ng malakas na simoy ng hangin.

Nang makarating sa loob ay kaagad naming binuksan ang flashlight para maghanap ng magandang pwesto.

As we were walking, we finally found a perfect spot and we set blanket on the ground at nilatag ang mga pagkain at inumin doon.

We were talking, laughing and joking around as the time passes by.

I stopped talking because I feel someone's eye are staring at us. Inilibot ko ang paningin sa paligid at nakita ko ang isang pares ng headlights ng sasakyan sa hindi kalayuan.

The couple didn't seem to notice it because they're probably drunk to notice it.

I thought it was some random people parking out or their car stopped working.

Sinabi ko sa kanila ang nakita ko pero pagtingin namin doon ay wala na ito.

Wierd. I muttered.

Tinawanan nila ako at sinabing lasing na raw ako dahil kung ano-ano na lang ang nakikita ko.

But no. Eventhough I'm drunk, I see it on my two eyes. I had a weird feeling that something is going to happen.

I decided to put aside the fear that I feel so I continued to drink and ignore what I just see.

Naubos na namin ang lahat ng drinks kaya inubos na ni Gabriel ang natira then we agreed to go home.

Pinatay muna namin ang apoy at niligpit ang mga bote at nilagay sa isang lalagyanan 'saka umalis na.

Binuksan ko ang flashlight at inilawan ang daanan namin. Dinah used her flashlight too.

Nakalabas na kami mula sa loob ng gubat kaya nakarating na rin kami sa daanan. Doon, nakita ko ulit ang headlights ng sasakyan na tulad ng nakita ko kanina.

"Told you, I saw it." I said to them as we stared at it in confusion.

Sobrang liwanang ng ilaw nito at narinig na lang namin na bumukas ang makina ng sasakyan at nagsimula itong umandar papunta sa amin.
