Memories

I woke up feeling cold and sweaty, when I lifted my head from bed I rolled my eyes.

I could barely close my eyes, my head hurt too. I kicked my bed because I couldn’t be bothered with what was there that seemed wet or what.

“Wait, why am I wet?”

Fucky!

Am I having wet dreams again?

It’s really lustful then because my bed is wet!

My femininity is felt over the clothes.

Wet…

All are wet!

I immediately rolled my eyes. Then sit down. Not only my femininity is wet as well as my whole body.

Fucky!

I look like I’m swimming now, my hair has moved wet as well as the clothes I’m wearing, I’m even wearing wet shoes.

What happened?

What am I doing? Why am I soaking wet? Did I swim last night? We didn’t have a pool so it was impossible for me to swim. The sea here is also far from us. At the end of the forest there is. In that forest far away, in the forest …

The headache again caused me to close my eyes and hold my head.

It was as if the memory of what had happened to me last night came back to my brain.

I was in the woods last night to prove that the vampire was real. I saw them again … Because of my madness we were blocked by that. I also remember a vampire jumping on me causing me to fall into the abyss.

Fucky! How did we even get at the edge of the cliff?

I opened my eyes then got up from the bed. I might catch a cold because I slept with wet clothes. How did I get home here?

All I remember is that I fell into the abyss, if I did fall… I must have drowned because I couldn’t swim. So how did it happen that I came home here?

“Adra!” It’s Mom!

My door spat on him when I opened it. My forehead is furrowed, my door is not closed?

I always keep the door closed so why is it open?

Fucky!

Maybe I just forgot the idea last night!

I turned to Mom, did she know I left the house last night? Didn’t he notice me coming home? My memory of last night is until I just fell into the abyss. I want to ask Mom.

“It’s good that you got up, Alta is downstairs. Do you have a walk?”

Is there? I can not remember. I can’t answer Mom’s question.

I took a deep breath.

“M-mom… How did I get home last night?” I ask.

“How did you get home last night? Just like you do every day, you go home after class, you came home early yesterday.” I rested deeply again. Mama didn’t seem to know that I left at night because what she was telling me was that I was coming home at four o’clock yesterday.

“Why are you wet?” Fucky!

“What did you do? Look at your bed, it’s soaking wet too!”

Fucky! What will I say? I don’t want him to know that I ran away last night and I almost died, because I might really die when he finds out!

“Uh-uh …”

Think, Adrasteia!

“It’s in the shower, Ma! I’m still drowsy so I turned around in the bathroom wrong.”

Her eyes narrowed.

“Hmm… It’s okay to get dressed so I can pick up the foam.”

Its face cleared. “Hurry up and Alta has been there for a while, our granddaughter of our manang leticia is already being picked up.” Mom laughed.

Fucky! This is really Alta, as well as manang’s grandson, that’s our age!

I just smiled. “All right, I’ll hurry up with the pinched Alta.”

I took a quick shower, along with the flow of water in my body was also the flow of questions in my brain. Until I got dressed my mind did not stop me.

“Why did you come down so soon? Manang’s grandson would have talked to me!”

He was kind to me when I could get close to him. Now the person he was talking to, Manang’s grandson, has left the kitchen. Too bad I didn’t even see it!

He only visits manang here once, it’s true that every time he goes, I’m not there either. Manang always tells him stories. He said his grandson is handsome, I hope it’s true even if I don’t like you that much like manang in men.

“Why is it my fault that I let my guest down?”

“I’m going to talk to him or I’m not? I don’t know the name of the ugly guy, it’s hard to talk!” She complained.

“So it only went once because of you!”

His right eyebrow was raised. “What’s because of me? Maybe that day is not because of me!”

“What every day? You can just say it’s hard to talk, you don’t even know the name.”

“Why? Do you know?” I was shaken by hee question.

“I haven’t seen it!” I laughed.

Instead of answering me, she turned to Mom who had just entered the kitchen.

“Hello, Aunty!”

It made her smile. “Did you know the name?” Alta snorted.

“Not Aunty, I’m such a naughty girl! I’m not paying attention.”

“That scared you! You have a fang, he thought maybe you would bite him, you look like a vampire because of those crooked teeth.” I teased.

That’s also true, there are two protruding teeth in Alta, at the friend’s end of the upper tooth. He always looks like a vampire, he had that when he was young so he was also tempted, a reason for us to be friends.

We were both tempted then, he was the one who fought with my former classmates, he seemed to bite their necks one by one. Since then we have become friends, she is always here at home so Mama treats her like a child, because even the men she likes are told to mama.

“Tsk! I’ll brace it for it to trim! Wait a minute!”

“I heard that, Alta. Our classmates just got tired of teasing you during your braces phase.”

She took a deep breath. “We have money … in case Dad doesn’t want it… This is the only thing I inherited from Mom.” She said promise.

Alta’s mother died after she was born so she was never seen or seen again. Even in the photo, he can’t see the mother because the father is not showing anything. It is said that the former residence was set on fire.

“With the amount of things your mother will bequeath to you, it’s really sungki! Maybe you were conceived by a vampire.” Mama laughed and promised to ease her feelings because she seemed to remember the mother who was not with her again.

His face brightened. “Maybe, Tita! That’s why I love them! I’m not really a vampire?” He made a serious promise.

Mom and I laughed because of that. He just laughed at what was said.

Gone are the weekends and I have done nothing but read. It’s Monday and school again.

It crossed my mind how to convince Vlad and Bernadette’s group that what I saw was true?

I’m sure they’ll just tease me again. Who would have thought that in the town of Colmillos there lived a vampire. No one will believe me if I have no evidence. Yes, I have confirmed that there is but I have not yet fully confirmed that.

“Why are you taking so long, Alta ?!” I moaned when I saw him.

Holding it to his knee, he catches his breath. What happened here? My forehead furrowed as I stared at him. The chest rises even lower. She turned to me.

“A-adra, you know that?” She sighed questioningly.

My right eyebrow rose at his question. I turned to the students who were gathering around his place and talking. There is something they are staring at on their cellphones. My eyes were fixed on a group, there was a woman vomiting. He insisted on handing the cellphone to one of them. When the friend reached for it, he was almost angry as well.

Fucky! What’s happening?

I looked back at Alta, she was not out of breath now, she was also standing properly in front of me.

“What do I know? What’s up?”
