chapter 1


Holly takes her towel and goes to her bathroom to get shower. She’s very tired because she had faced her laptop since five hours ago. Holly is a writer who loves to write horror stories. She’s always trying to find the latest story without care wherever she has to go and whoever she has to interview just to get stories that she thinks is suitable with her novel.

After she had her bath, she gets ready to sleep. The clock shows the time is already 1.00 a.m. Just after half an hour she have her sleep, she suddenly awake. She heard someone is crying. She goes to the living room and trying to find where is the voice comes from. She finally found the place. It is from one of the rooms at the downstairs. Her house has three rooms at the upstairs and two rooms at the downstairs. She walks down the stairs slowly but her heart races very fast.

When she arrives at the front of the room, she opens the door slowly.

“Arghhh!”

She is very surprise when she looks inside of the room. A little girl is crying on the bed. The girl has a long hair. Holly walks slowly into the room and tries to be brave although she scares with the situation. She sits in front of the girl and tries to stop the girl from crying.

But, when she wants to touch her, the girl suddenly stares at her and her eyes are red! Holly is in shocked. After that, the child laughs at her. She is very scares, then she runs to her room but, the child runs faster than her. At the stairs, the child catches her leg and tries to bite Holly’s it with her canine tooth. Holly screams loudly but no one can hear her voice. Moreover, she is alone in the house. The child chuckles and blood come out from her mouth.

Suddenly, Holly gets up from her bed. “Thank God!,” says Holly. She was just dreaming. But deep inside her heart, she feels that something is wrong with her leg. Her right leg is bleeding! She was surprised about that and suddenly remembered about her dream just now. Is it a reality or just a dream?.

Then, she goes to her laptop and finds that her writing was added and completed for a chapter. And more surprising is the story in the chapter is same with her dream just now. The clock now shows that now is 5.00 a.m. Holly can’t continue her sleep anymore. She goes to the bathroom and gets her bath to start a new day.

At 7.00 a.m. sharp, she’s already at the train station. She is heading to the hospital where she works as a nurse. While she’s in the train, she feels like someone is staring at her. But, when she looks around, everyone is busy doing their own business. There are some colleagues gossiping each other, a blind man holding a cup of tea, and the others just waiting for their stops. No one can be suspicious. She keeps feeling the same until she reaches her destination. When she walks out of the train, she suddenly sees the girl that appeared in her dream last night. She is frozen in front of the door before it close.

“Hey, Holly! Wow, you’re so early today. Why you look so pale?”, said Catherine.

“Urmm, nothing”

“OK. Then, let’s walk together”.

Holly just follows her friend while Catherine busy gossiping about artists and their colleagues. But Holly does not listen to her friend because she is still in shock and thinking about the girl.

In Queen’s Bay Hospital, Holly does her work as usual. She serves food for patients, gives medicine and cleans them. Then, she receives a message from her boyfriend, Dr. Lewis Sinclair. He asks her to meet him at usual place for their lunch. She just smiles when thinking of Lewis.

Holly and Lewis had known each other for five years. The first time they met was in a train.

Holly took a train as usual to go to the hospital. The train was too crowded and suddenly she was pushed by a fat woman. It makes her collapsed but luckily a guy in front of her managed to catch her before she kisses the floor. At that time, both of them had a strange feeling- that is what some of us believe, love at first sight.

Thank you to the fat lady actually.. The guy is an Irish and Arabian mixed with his very good looking face. He likes on the ball. Anyone who looks at him will be impressed with his charm. His personality suits with Holly who has long blonde hair, hazel eyes and sexy lips. Until now they are a happy couple.

Lewis brings Holly to My Mum Restaurant to get their lunch. Both of them ordered a set of spaghetti olio and a bowl of fruits salad. Holly has no appetite to eat. She is still thinking about the girl.

“What’s wrong with you Hol? Why you look moody? Is there any problem?”

“Nothing, I just thinking about my dream last night” .

“Why? Tell me,” Lewis replied.

Holly tells everything that has happened to her boyfriend. Lewis says that it was only her imagination and nothing to worry about it.

Holly feels unsatisfied with Lewis because he seems like he didn’t care and believe what she had said just now. They return to the hospital by Lewis’ Merc. She does her work as usual.

She returns home at 5.00 p.m. She takes a break, bath and has some meal. Then, she continues writing her novel. After a few seconds writing, she falls asleep in front of her laptop.

She is dreaming! In her dream, she sees an old woman with a hoe in her right hand. The woman looks like a mad woman with her long; messy hair, dirty shirt and her face looks so horrible. She stares at Holly with a scary look. Suddenly, Holly wakes up from her sleep. She smiles and talks to herself that the woman in her dream just now can be a character in her novel.

“Yes! I can add a new character for my fantastic story. I must try to create a wonderful story for my readers”, said Holly. “Everyone will be proud of me”.

In a dark night, an old woman walks around Halen’s house with a hoe in her right hand. She is evil. Everyone scares of her because she is very mystery. So many cases we can hear at Hogan Street about the woman. Her name is Maria. She is very pretty at some years ago. All guys tried to tackle her but no one can touch her heart.

Since one day, Maria had not meet people. After seven months, people in the town got shocking news. Maria is dead! But, no one knows the cause of her death. From the news by the neighbourhood, she didn’t meet people because she was pregnant and nobody wants to take the responsibility of her pregnancy. No one knew who actually the father of the baby. She had tried to go out to meet people but with her condition, no one liked her anymore and she felt so sad.

After a few months, one by one man in the town had been killed. No one knows what’s going on at that time. Then, a lot of stories explode about Maria in the neighbourhood. They said that Maria became a ghost and killed all the guys to show her revenge.

Halen is a sexy girl with a pink short hair. Actually, she is Maria’s daughter. She helps her ‘mother’ to revenge by ensnare some boys and then, she will give them to her ‘mum’ to kill them. She always sees her ‘mum’ around her house. She can feel her mum’s spirit around her.

One day, Halen brings Joe to her house. Joe likes Halen because she is quite pretty and sexy. Joe is a famous playboy in her college. Joe is always hurting girls after he got what he wants. Halen had been tackling him since a few weeks ago and she finally got him to get revenge for all his acts.

One night, they enjoyed themselves with drinks and dance. At 3.00 a.m., Halen looks out the window and she sees her mum walks around the small garden at the back of her house. Maria smiles at her daughter and shows her canine tooth.

“Time for a real enjoy!” Maria talks to herself.

Halen gets up from the bed and walk to the kitchen. Before she closed the room’s door, she looks at Joe who is still sleeping on the bed.

Halen goes to take a knife and a scythe in a small store at the downstairs. Then, she tiptoe back to her room to avoid Joe awakes from his sleep. Slowly, Halen get closer to Joe. Unfortunately, he awakes and looks at Halen suspiciously.

“Halen, what are you trying to do?”

Halen smiles “Nothing, don’t be afraid. I won’t do anything. Just want to say thanks for the beautiful night and I just wanted to make it more beautiful tonight”. Halen laughs.

Joe looks at the scary looking woman out of the window with a hoe in her right hand from a mirror in the room and a little girl beside her. The little girl’s name is Halen Junior. Joe started to worry and afraid to think about what will happen to him after this.

“Hey Halen! Are you crazy? What do you want from me? Why you do this to me? We were enjoying each other just now. Am I hurting you? Please, stop it and we can discuss about it. I love you Halen, don’t you love me? I know that you love me right. Now, stop it. It’s not funny Halen. Please!” Joe just talked out whatever comes out from his mind. He tries to make Halen calm down. Unfortunately, all of his effort can’t change anything. Moreover, Halen is holding a knife and tries to stab him. Luckily, he can avoid every stab from Halen.

Halen feels so angry. She runs to Joe and hugs him tightly and stabs him from the back. Joe can’t do anything. Halen laughs and let Joe’s body fall down. His back started bleeding. Joe is very near of his death door. Joe tried to hold Halen’s hand to get her sympathy. But, Halen just ignores him.

Then, in a second, she takes a scythe and cut Joe’s neck and Joe passed away immediately. Halen looks at Maria by the mirror and says that their mission is accomplished.

“Not yet, we must clear any proof of this murder”, said Maria.

“It’s easy mum. We can do it. Now, it’s you turn to solve it”. Halen gives a hug to her mum. She gets inside of her house to clean any proof. She burns Joe’s shirt, watch, shoes and everything.

At the garden, Maria digging a big hole with a hoe to plant the dead body inside it. Before that, she takes out a scythe and disinters the body to take his liver. She is very happy when she does it because she feels like she gets what she had missing at long time ago. Then, she puts the body inside the hole and closes it with a lot of sand. Then, she covers it with some leaves and sticks.

“Kring!kring! The phone is ringing. Holly runs to pick up the phone.

“Hello,”

“Why are you writing that kind of story?!” , said the husky voice. He sounds like an old man.

“Who are you?”

“No need to know who I am. What I want you to do is stop writing the stupid story. Understand?!” Then, he hung up.

Holly confuses when she thinks about the call just now.
