Erika was freshman of first year of art faculty in her college.she had came home in small city on vacation of new year vocation.but right now, she was paused in the mid of cemetery at the midnight. per se she lost in game . as condition who would loss have to spend time on graveyard all over night. that's how she ends up here.
Game condition was like that, who is unable to make a boyfriend until now ,have to propose of her own long term crush with red rose.if you haven't, you can choose randomly anyone.in swarm of damsel, five out of seven was still single. it was very joyous game for them. she said herself "you can do it, Erika. just believe yourself."
her bad luck was getting up that day. back then, she was very happy.it ends up at point, when she gives her love letter to her neighbour boy 'Jacob' who was her childhood friend . she was so demure , it takes more power of her to give him epistle .she heads back hurriedly after that without knowing his consideration. as she came back home in few minutes of moments,she gets, her crush was in front of her and reciting every sentence what she wrote with her whole sincere heart, in front of her family .
Erika feels so embarrassed around them . she started squeezing 'rose' inside of her beg in rage .as she brought to give him. but it couldn't kept her soothe. she ended up at slap him with tear up .
she was wondered 'her love was so fragile.it ends before starting. at all times,she used to think no one could understand her as he had. but he was unrepentant .
Erika inhales a deep breathe and take a glance around her .it was dreary and darken all over.she started wailing more loudly as if that way she could gets tranquil in her chasm.it took more time to stop crying .she squatted over pulpy meadow.a cold breeze was ruffling her long hair ,and touching her face and neck it was winter night. she was still shivering in her warm coat to cold.
she lies down. and looked over her . it was starry night.she mumbled"it's a shame. she was the only one who lost in this damn game." no one is here to keep her company and to give her sympathy. if she would have been her smart phone.she wouldn't be so bored. she twisted herself to her right hand side.
there was surrounded by silhouette of tree and one silhouette started to across her side. she felt twinge over her whole body.it was giving her goosebumps. she quickly, leaps to meadow straight on her feet. even though she was atheist. her notion was like that, god doesn't exist in this world as ghost .it is just fancy of our mind.
but, she was still unable to keep calm her mind.somewhere, she has no assuredness on herself. she was trembling for fear.
Erika take a glance at silhouette. at nearly ,it was kind of man's silhouette. he appears just front of her. she was appalled at this hour who could come to greet any deceased.she fixed her specs. she still couldn't see his clearly face. but she could reckoned .his hair was wavering in the flank of breeze.one bouquet was dangling in his hand. he was covered with high neck jacket.he was tall more than that she barely able to reached out his shoulder.
he says to her in bleak "can you step back to make a way."
" oh, sure."
he bends on his kneel, frontward of one flagstone for greeting and bestowed one nosegay . after that he puts out one wine bottle to his jacket.
she said in hesitation " mister, is he your any relatives or acquaintance ?"
" no" he said, without seeing her.
"then, she must be your girlfriend."she smiled.
he refuted again " no."
Erika speculated " that man might be a paranoid .otherwise, who would be come in graveyard at midnight just for an unknown person.
" he was a dotard." he spoke in mild voice. after few minutes, when she had assumed he was not going to answer.
he smirked and get on to leaned her very closed that he could have met his gaze to her . and said" miss, what about you?"
"it should have been my question. in the desert place ,one lonely damsel is staying here, for whom?"
" and i am not a mad man."
she retreats far away from him. she was confused.
"I have clairvoyance. I can see your distress."
" you have grievance to someone else . you want to throttle him with your hand."
she was appalled that how could anyone says without seeing her facial expression. it was darken all over them.in the starlit no one could have been eligible to do so.it might be his own conjecture.
he said " I can grant your wish.make a wish."
" are you an angel."she snapped
" no, I am devil." he said forthright.
she thought " how sarcastic."
" then, you should know I am atheism. "
" I know", he lets out of another wine bottle to his own jacket and filled cup to give in her hand.
" I would like to show you diabolic power." he said.
she paused.it was annoying for her.
he take a sip of his wine and grinned" what, it was just a joke. are you trembling."
after seeing him drink she was assured that it was not drugged wine.
she said " no,I am not afraid" and she swallowed whole liquor in just one sip.
his face was full of contentment. he turned to get departure . then, after few steps of his feet ,he recalled something and twisted " by the way, for acquaintance, we should know each other."
Erika was so sleepy.that she told nothing.
" I am sky." he explained while he got no response.
" have a good night."
" sky, ha.. what's good about him."
" you still haven't know my name.and you hope I would remember your name. "
" total rubbish"
once again, it filled with serenity.but, this time it was more spooky and eerie than previous time.from further away, child wailing sound was coming in her mind. a stormy wind started to swept around her.she was trembling. but, it's not happened to stop here.
abruptly, the lid of one grave budges . she recoils and stumbled to another grave.many hand sprouts around her and clamping her down. she was struggling against that abominable hand to get on.she thought even if she used to watch horror movie without tremulous.but if say,real experience, she can't hold it.
" until now,she never felt hallucination like that. damn, bastard. what have you done to me."
she saw, one woman was coming over her side without sense of any .she can see in darknes, in her sleepy mood too. that woman was wobbling and flopped over her. Erika tried to take- down her in fear with her entire force.but she couldn't. she tried another failed effort.her eye was shut down tightly and unable to open it.she started to shouting . but it trailed off. it was naught. she felt nothing except cold. one cold hand was wavering on her cheek .she was very cold all over her body. she was dozing and felt dizzy.she gets it. if that's death .it should be done quickly. that,s way she will leave that world in peace . no one would be able to mock her.
