what flavor would you like?"
"mint chocolate. "
he laughed " you always eat mint chocolate. "
I nod my head "I put a little more since you come by often." oh my God why the humans are like this? that's not fair.
"Next time, please make sure I get the exact amount I order without mistake. "
"Huh?"
"if I owe a favor, due to circumstances beyond my control I must repay the favor. " I take my ice-cream and go to set on a table. hmm I really love the ice-cream it's make me feel like I'm in heaven. I feel my phone is vibrating in my bocket so I take it out and answer the call "hello,brother"
"the number you are calling isn't available, dude."
"it's been a while. "
"why?"
"why do you think? I called because I missed you."
"what are you doing right now?"
"I'm busy. hanging up."
"oh, but you don't look busy" I panicked is he here I turn around me but he isn't here
"let's meet. "
"I refuse."
"I'm going to set your house on fire."
"six hundred years old and you acting like a child it's not cute at all."
"you will regret it."
"I won't."
"you are still waiting these days. for your dead girlfriend." I clench my jaw and wait for him to continue "I heard a really amusing rumor. should I tell you or should I not?"
I say through gritted teeth.
"Don't mess with me."
"if you are curious, come out."
he hangs up. i wonder what he wants now.
MIA'S POV:
Right now I'm in the bus station rethinking of what that boy told me "catch the bus at the location I told you about. but there's one condition."
"One condition?"
"you have to come alone." and here I'm I did as I was told I came here to the bus station alone.
there was a girl and old drunk man was sitting on the ground. I set next to the girl she is a student I knew it from her clothes.
"Hi. Are you a producer?" I noticed that she was looking at my notebook and camera.
"yes." I said smiling at her,
"My dream is to be a producer, too."
"if possible, try to think of different future plans." I look at my watch, then back at her "I have been working for the last 22 hours." then we both chuckle. after a few minutes the bus has arrived, the girl stand up and get on the bus then I grab my bag and stand up "ah, my legs!" I heard the old man screaming so I run to the old man and help him to stand up but he screams from pain again "Are you okay?" I look at his face and I see a mark on his left eye "Are you going to get on or not ?" the driver asks " We will get on. just a moment. please get up. I will take you to the hospital. sir ,I need to get on the bus!"
"Are you not getting on?"
"I'm getting on. just a second!" I take a step away from the old man but grabs my leg and didn't let go of me
"hey wait don't go." the man screams again while grabbing my legs and the driver drives off. I see him the man from the wedding the man with the umbrella he is on the bus oh my God it's him I run after it "wait" but there's no use.
"can you help me to go to my house? please."
I sigh and look at him " yeah, sure I will help you" I go to him and help him to stand up i put his arm around my neck and walk.
we walked for like 25 minutes and still his house is no where to be seen "Where did you say you live?"
"just stop at that tree over there."
"but Gramps, you're heavier than you look."
it's strange. he is strangely heavy. I don't hear breathing either. "Gramps." he didn't answer
"it hurts." then he takes his arm off neck " we are here." I let sigh with relief.
"Drink less alcohol."
"Don't try to show off from this. I have already paid you back."
"sorry."
I notice a taxi "stop please."
"where do you need to go?"
"Along the route of bus No. 1089."
I look behind me and I notice that the old man is no where to be seen.
"Sir, the elderly man that was behind me...."
"Who? I didn't see anyone besides you." I look back behind but I didn't see anything I get in the car and then we drive there.
we arrived to the bus but I gasped when I saw the sight onfront of me "hello, there was an accident here on route 155." I heard the driver calling the ambulance I look around and the place looks so familiar like I have been here before. route 155 that's the same place that the accident happened in here 20 years ago. No
I run inside the bus the door was opened "hello."
"hello? Are you awake ?" I start to cry, all the people are dead. I notice the girl that I meet in the bus station I run to her "Hey, wake up." suddenly her eyes opens I gasped and step back away from her.
"I told you not to take pictures!"
"Hey! you should have prevented them from taking pictures!"
"Mia why are you here?"
"Detective John, you almost had to recover my body today. "
"what are you talking about?"
"I almost rode it"
"what?"
"I was supposed to ride that bus"
"oh my God. Really, are you serious?
"Five deaths and one survivor."
"is that right?"
"We are missing one person."
"what?"
"there were seven people on the bus."
"Are you sure?"
"I clearly saw him. only he isn't here. No body, nothing."
"He must have gotten off."
"No, this bus didn't make a stop. there's no bus stop in here" he gives me his umbrella "Hey! there's something I need check! hurry over here."
