I got up in the room that is unfamiliar to my eyes. I was lying on the bed with the softness of the cotton. My eyesight suddenly got darken that caused me to see nothing.

Where am I?

I saw a light, I immediately got up and went into that light.

I was already out of the room but the door suddenly closed itself. I was shocked by what I saw.

666

I woke up to my nightmare, a dream I did not want to return to. It was only two weeks before I fled to Hell.

I walked towards the mirror to look at myself. I am losing my weight unlike before, my skin is pale, and the monster in my womb is growing.

"Heleana." Janine called me. "We have to leave." She reminded us that our lives are in danger because of Hudas who was looking for me.

"Do you still love him?" Janine asked, which surprised me. I did not answer her. What happened in the past, still haunts me.

"The time is near Janine, we need to hurry." I said to her.

I took a car walk around 5:00 a.m. earlier than what our plan supposed to be. 5 o' clock in the morning is a time where I can relax and feel peaceful. The air is refreshing, it is good for my child's health. I closed my eyes and suddenly I recall some of my memories in the past...

"Heleana." Manang Zelda called me. "A monster is growing inside your womb."

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"He visits you every night." Manang Zelda said. "He may just be by your side every day."

"Wait, what exactly are you talking about? I don't understand you. I am confused by what is happening Manang Zelda." I said confusedly.

"Go to Anda, Bohol. There is an Albularyo who can help you along the way but be careful not all of the people are trusted."Manang Zelda warned me. "Don't wander around right now. Your life depends on it, as well as this world." He reminded again.

My conscience was restored when Yurika suddenly spoke.

"You can't forget him, huh?" Yurika asked.

I shook my head.

"I can't forget him. His achievements hurt me, he...hurt me." I told her with a cracked tone of my voice who resist to cry. "That's why he kissed me on the lips." I said bitterly, my eyes is full of sadness every time I remember what happened then.

Yurika and Janine are my best friends, I met them in the game of demons. Our fate in Hell is also bitter.

"Come on, we are going to Bohol. The albularyo will help us there." Janine replied.

I was relieved by what she said, I seemed to be enlivened.

"Oh, here." Yurika gave me a rosary. "You also need to pray for your safety. The slave's of the kingdom of darkness is already finding you." She reminded me.

"And do not take that away from your side. That is your protection Heleana...and also for the baby is in your womb. Therefor it will not become a monster just like his/her father." Janine said and she laughed.

We are on the way to the ferry that is found in Cebu. We waited seven hours to get a ticket in Cebu. Many tourists will travel to Tagbilaran this summer, while others will return to their homes. It was twelve o'clock in the afternoon when we boarded to Tagbilaran. We waited for another two hours for the bus that offers a ride towards Tagbilaran, Bohol. My emotions and fears still dominate my feelings, because I think they might find me first. Not only my life but also my friends who are affected by my problem.

"Here you go! You drink water to stay hydrated." Yurika reminded me. "That is detrimental to the child's health."

"Thank you." I responded her and drank the water she gave me.

We are closed to Tagbilaran. The wind is blowing fresh air. At two o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived in Tagbilaran, we immediately took a tricycle to the bus station. Yurika and I waited for Janine because she paid for the ticket to Anda. It has been more than an hour but she still didn't come back.

"Yurika, how long has Janine been?" I asked, feeling nervous on what might happen to her.

"Don't be stressed out Heleana. Janine has already chatted with me. She's already coming here,they just had a little misunderstanding with the cashier." Yurika said and hugged me. "Don't worry, we will not be lost. We will help you first before we disappear."

I hugged her tightly.

"Can I join your group hug too?" Janine asked and immediately ran towards us and joined the our group hug tightly. I did not realize that I was crying, I cried because of the mixed emotions I was feeling.

Janine showed us the three tickets she bought.

"Come on, It's getting late. We'll be there by five o'clock in the afternoon. We need to hurry." Janine reminded us that we are running out of time.

We got on the bus, I put on a jacket because of the cold I felt. The bus ran fast so we got there at four thirty in the afternoon.

We got off the bus. I looked around to the surroundings, it is full of trees and plants. In the distance there is a house made of wood, it is simple. A couple came out of the house to welcome us.

"Come on Heleana." Yurika said and then held my hands.

We headed inside the house. The old woman was scared when she saw me.

"Get out of our house!" The old woman shouted.

"We can no longer help you, sorry." The old man apologized.

"But you are the only one who can help my friend. Why are you driving us away?" Janine asked in surprise.

"I cannot save you, especially you." The old man apologized again and pointed at me. "Once you give birth to that monster, you will die. Moreover, the world will be dark again." Said the old man.

"It's getting late, Hudas will be looking for you." The old woman reminded.

"How can I save my child from becoming a monster?" I asked.

"You are the woman who will give birth a son."The old lady told me. I'm understanding deeply what she said. "You're not also the only one who give birth to a son but you are also one of them. An extraordinary kind of women who only give birth to a son every thousand years ago." The old woman said.

"Why didn't you save yourself in the first place?" The old woman asked furiously. "How did you attract Hudas?" The old woman suddenly me out asked in her curiosity.

I was speechless, tears welling up in my eyes but I tried to resist it.

"You will still come back to him." The old woman whispered. I burst in the tears in my eyes that I held back earlier. I really don't know what to do, I'm lost. I'm still finding my way out of this problem.

"You can still save the child from becoming a monster but your life is at stake." The old woman told me.

"Hudas' eldest was always a woman and then he he will eat it, to give his strength and his health. He would go back to his wife to give her a second son but if the women refuses. He kills it." Said the old man. "But in your situation the man comes first. It will be stronger than his father." He looked at me. "The world will be dark again and evil will envelop the world again." He said and handed me a necklace with a cross.

"You are very different from what I see, you are alone. You taught a demon to love, you gave up your femininity, your soul, and especially your trust."The old woman said.

"His wives do not survive when they run away, especially when they are pregnant." Said the old man. "Have you seen Hudas?" He asked in astonishment.

"He doesn't show his face. But I saw his monster form." I told them.

They were silent.

"Aren't you scared?" The old woman asked.

My whole body was shaking.

I was terrified but there was a part of me that was not. Is it because we are both sad, is it because we are both looking for something or is it because we are forced to do it just to follow the agreement.

"Iha." The old man said, I was back on my senses when the old man touched me in the shoulders.

"He's looking for you." The old man said and showed me the boiling oil.

What will I do?

I do not yet fully know what is going on.
