Chapter 3 - ENTRY #2 – CURSE

Dear Violet,

It's been so many years and I still haven't figured out about this condition I have. Earlier when we passed by the big tree in a school lawn, I tripped! Not because of a rock or uneven cement or my stupid feet. It's because of a strange ability I have.

When that happened, my head felt lighter and my vision got a bit darker. My palm reached my head and my breathing went faster than usual. As my two besties tried to help me stand, I saw a bloody figure sitting lifelessly on the tree's roots.

His head had an axe stuck in his skull, that's where the blood came from which flowed down to his face. This person wore seniors' uniform and the other parts of his body had blood too. There were bruises in his arms and neck.

 

This guy might've tried to fight back, he unfortunately lost.

 

I lost sight of him when the two dragged me away from that area. Everything went back to normal, my surroundings were bright and vibrant again. I tried catching my breath as I stood up. Cat gave me a concerned look while Boy Rascal (Boy Loco) opened my tumbler for me.

I'm suffering from this strange condition for 5 years. Only a few people know about this. My aunt, cousin, and my two bestfriends. It's not necessary for others to know, they'll only think I'm crazy!

Auntie brought me to an old lady before, she's the known folk herbalist in the town. She mentioned three possibilities:

1. I was the one that had been cursed as a punishment for a relative's sin

2. It is a gift from God for me to give justice to those who died

3. It is a power that was passed down from my ancestors

 

While the psychologist said I was suffering from hallucinations because of the accident that happened years ago.

 

"Am I really cursed?" I mumbled

"Shut up! No, you're not!"

"Don't think that way!"

That's how our conversation goes every time this shit happens to me. The only people I can trust are my family and these two. I'm grateful to have them in my life. They didn't abandon me despite having a rare condition.

There was a time that I almost felt hopeless for this curse, until someone reached out to me. And that person was from my school! Nobody, not a single soul except us three in the campus, is aware of this curse of mine. I responded to this person and why do they know this.

 

 I learned that not one person actually, but GROUP of people were aware of this fact.

 

Oh well, this guy in black is back again. I can feel his presence in the room. Goodness, I hope I can sleep well tonight! Why won't he stop bothering me! Mind you, I caught a glimpse of him when my strange ability occurred under the tree like I mentioned here.

 

It's getting creepy in here, haha. It's... it's cold.

 

Someone, pray for me, please.

 

Creeped out,

Leela.
