(Ghost Story)

Several years have passed yet the memory of my encounter with the unknown is still fresh in my mind. I can still recall every detail.

It was year 2004 or 2005; I was 11 years old. Well I used to believe in supernatural creatures but I didn't expect to have an encounter with them. During that time I, together with my friends; we're very curious weather supernatural's really exists. We used to share our stories about ghost, something like white ladies, kapre, aswang, duwende, engkanto... You know those things which we used to hear from the elders... And maybe because of curiosity, our young minds were triggered to believe them even though we haven't seen them yet.

My first encounter with the unknown happened in our house in San Jose Del Monte Bulacan... That time there were lots of TV series which I liked to watch. It happened that when my father came home drunk he got mad because we were watching a particular show and he demanded to change the channel but we didn't oblige to his order, all of the sudden he went to the kitchen get a hammer from his tool box and without saying a thing he hit the television monitor and that's when we end up watching TV in our neighbor's house.

There were lots of cool TV series back then aired by the two biggest networks in the country. Of course I, together with my siblings haven't missed the chance to watch them everyday and so we usually used to stay late outside just to watch all of them.

It happened Monday at about 10:00-11:00 in the evening my mother was nagging because our water meter was still on, she was asking someone to turn it off but my brother and sisters were just neglecting my her order, then she warned us..." do not let me repeat my words, the second time I say it you'll be punished".

After wards my siblings started to point finger to each other, seems like nobody wants to follow. Because I am the youngest one, I was so afraid that my mom might hit all of us and I really hate the thought of it, so I decided to go up and turn off the water meter.

When I was already there where our meter was, I wasn't able to see anyone. There were just a dim light coming from the few vehicles passing by. I could feel the cool air brushing my skin... It was so cold and all of the sudden I had goose bumps. Then I decided to get rid of the obligation and started quickly to get back home. I really felt uneasy being alone outside. My mind started to create things which made my hair rise.

I was on my way back when I saw something in front of the Mother Mary child care Center, it was a nursery school nearby the big white house located in the vacant lot where we used to play.

I smiled because I came up with the conclusion that somehow someone was tricking. Then I decided to take a closer look weather the one I saw was a girl or a boy... So I went closer to the area where I saw it. To my surprise I've seen a lady in white dress; she was staring straight at me. I could clearly see the blood drenching on her body... Her long curly hair made her face creepy. I notice d that she was about 6 inches elevated from the ground. You know the feeling when you're being stuck and held still? I felt my whole body freeze; I couldn't move or even shout. The worse thing was that the lady in white was approaching even more closely. That is when I whisper "oh God help me get through this" then after wards I run as fast as I could. During that moment I was not thinking of anything but to get out of that barren place. I run as if 10 lions were after me, ready to bite me and tear me into pieces.

When I hit the door of our house I gone straight to bed without saying a thing. Covered my body with my blanket and slept. I could feel my body chilling; I was near to crying because of fear. But I was relieved at the same time because at least I have gone through that moment.

The following day I told the whole story to my brother and sisters... They were shocked, at first and they didn't seem to believe me but still they end up convinced... I told my experience to my friend as well... Good thing they believed me right away...

A month after the incident, one of my friends experienced the same thing... She saw the lady in white inside their house which is located at the back of the nursery school... And I believed her because she described the same thing...

According to the people who had been staying in that place for a long time, that woman was hit by a bus and had been fatally injured... But because the driver was afraid to spend a lot of money and might end up in jail after the due court trial he then just let the woman died and throws her corpse in the vacant lot where the lady in white used to appear... She might be seeking justice that had been buried in a long period of time...

It was not in my system to become clairvoyant and I never expect to see creatures which are beyond the imagination of normal persons... Yet it still occurs sometimes... From that day onward I started to feel something that cannot be explain by other people and see something that cannot be seen by others... Now whenever I feel something or someone that cannot be seen by our naked eye I don't react the way I reacted during my first encounter... I think, I've finally learned to live with it...

Maybe these things are meant to happen or maybe the encounter with the supernatural creatures has a certain explanation...
