To my left sat my lovely daughter, and to my right my handsome husband.
After a few, everyone was in front of me waiting.
"It was 1994....
———————————
"Samuel, where the fried rice are we going? In 1 AM !!!" I asked asked in confusion and frustration since i just woke up.
"Calm down" he said eyes still on the road. "I am keeping my word thats all."
'Keeping his word?' I thought to myself trying to figure out what he meant by it.
"What the flippers are you talking about?" I asked feeling more annoyed.
He sighs, "remember when we played truth or dare in that party last week?" He asked.
"Kind of yeah, why?"
"Well... Dylan dared me to go to this hunted place near the gas station, so i am doing it now." He said calmly.
"Why the flap jack am I doing here?" I asked waving my hand.
"I just.. didn't want to go alone, so the first person I thought of is my best friend, my soulma-"
"Everyone said no am I right?" I cut him off asking.
"Yeah.."
I closed my eyes for a moment only to open it again when the car stops.
"Where're here, get out" he said unbuckling his seat belt.
We got out the car, and i eyed the place from up to down.
"Okay so ill wait for you here i guess." I said resting my hand on his shoulder. " good luck" i said tapping almost pushing him to go.
"Oh no no, you are coming young lady." He said pulling me with him as hr walked towards the house.
There was no point in arguing so i just simply went in with him.
The house was dark and broken, we opened our flashlights and started walking even further.
"Okay you did it can we leave now?" I asked hoping for a yes.
.
.

"Samuel?" I looked back.
.
.
.
No one was there, i kept looking and calling out for him but got nothing in return. Until u heard footsteps from upstairs.
I freezes and stoped breathing. "S-samuel?" I whispered.
The footsteps stops. 'Oh hail no'
I started walking the same halls trying to find a way out. And then i saw him. I picked up my pace and held his hand.
"There you are! Where were you?!" I asked almost screaming.
"Where was i? Where were you? As soon as i lost you i went outside thinking you bailed on me!" He said running his hand through his hair.
"Y-you went outside?" I whispered to him
"Yeah, why?" He looked at me confused.
"Then w-who is.." i said looking up.
Right then we heard footsteps. I looked at him with panicked eyes.
"Lets go go go!" I screamed running. Samuel was running behind me still holding hands.
The footsteps got closer. Right then we kicked the door open and went straight to the car locking it.
Samuel started the engine and drove backwards. I kept my eyes on the door waiting for someone or something to get out.
We reached the road and headed to the 24/7 market near by to get some food since we both knew we wont be able to sleep.
As he drove again, i looked back. To see a man looking figure with everything black, standing in the middle of the road looking at us. The person then started to walk back in the forest.
We arrived to the market , the ride was silent.
We got in grabbing a trolley. As we went from isle to isle we were met by Jane.
"Hey! What are you two doing here?" She came greeting us with a smile.
"Oh hey Jane we were just buying food since we're gonna have a sleepover " I answered accepting her hug.
"You are having a sleepover with him?" She looked as if she didn't like the idea of me and him "sleeping" in bedroom together.
"Yeah it a tradition we have." Samuel answered. " it started when we were kids, our parents would force us to do it but now we do it cause we want to." He smiling at me.
" oh.. well i guess ill see you guys Monday in uni?" She said picking up her basket.
"Yup." I said smiling.
We took what we wanted and headed to the cashier. As we waited, I started looking around 'till i froze.
There in front of me stood a guy wearing everything in black.
I pulled Samuel sleeves and pointed at the guy with my chin.
He also froze.
We paid for our stuff and started to head out, before i got out I checked one last time to see the guy. But there was no one.
I spun around ready to walk out, but something blocked my way causing me to fall on my tushy.
"Ow, what the-" I looked up holding my back. I froze
"Oh, I'm so sorry I didn't see you there." He offered me his hand.
'Didn't see me?' It was thing for me to be scared but to call me short, indirectly.
"Didn't see me? What are you calling me short? Huh! You, you giant!!"
The guy was shocked, eyes wide open, and mouth opened a bit. "W-wha-?"
"Yeah you heard me giant! I am not short you are just really really tall okay?!" I shot back, while standing up, ignoring his hand.
"Okay?" He answered back questionably.
"Where the fuck is she?" A familiar voice behind the tall man was heard.
"There you are!" Samuel sighed.
"Yeah whatever, Samuel this giant guy just called me short" i pouted.
The giant raised his in surrender. "I swear i didn't " he claimed.
Samuel took a moment to check the guys face widening his eyes. " john?" He asked.
The guy looked at him smiling widely. "Oh my, Samuel?" He asked too.
What the- what was happing here? A drama or something
"Uh hello, i am still here" i waved my hands.
"Alex, john my closest friend back home. John, Alex my best friend since birth"
John offered his hand smiling, I accepted and shook it.
—————————————
"And ever since that day, Alex and John became close and got together, but no once did they forget what happened that day."
Finishing the story the kids were smiling still hugging each other.
"Wow grandma, how do you know all of this?" On the kids asked.
I smiled looking at my now smiling husband. "Now that's my secret to keep."
The end.
