"A woman's body was found!"

"What?!" Another body was found,

"Where?"

"It was seen again in the same place, where the first corpse was found.

Fucky!

"Is that true?"

"Yes! That's what we're talking about now! The clothes are also broken. What a pity ..."

"What died?"

"The police did not say, nor could they be identified when they saw it because the body was said to be full of blood but it looked like it was tied based on the scar on the wrist and then on the foot."

Fucky! What happened last night quickly entered my mind. It wasn’t just vampires I saw in the woods last night. There is also a girl! His wrist and foot were tied. Isn't that ... Alta is referring to him?

One by one I thought back to what had happened that night. I thought that woman was also a vampire but it wasn't because her fang was fake. That's what used to be sold every Halloween, fake fangs.

"Crime is rampant here in our town, as if a body was found just a while ago. It is said that there may be a serial killer here in our town, our peers are being victimized ... The case is not sure because it is still quiet to the police to this day. The autopsy is not over yet."

Fucky! If my suspicions were correct, it was probably the woman I saw last night in the woods. If what that man said is true ... The woman is already dead.

I remember getting the vampire's attention. If that man hadn't stopped me, most likely, I would have been the corpse in question now. That's what I wanted last night... but even if I sacrifice my life, it will still not serve as evidence or proof that vampires are real because the police will not look at the angle that the vampire may have done it.

"Oh that's amazing there Adra?"

"Don't worry, the victim won't victimize you because they'll be scared of you right away!" She teased me.

I stared at him. "It'll scare you more, it'll make your crooked teeth tremble!"

"It is beautiful! It looks like my crooked teeth are useful somehow!" She laughs at what she said.

"Let's go." I'm with her.

I looked around. I don't know why but my eyes seem to be looking for something.

I sighed heavily, disappointed that I didn't find what my eyes are looking for. Even though I can remember some parts of what happened last night I feel like there is still a missing memory that I need to remember.

"Aw!"

"What happened?" He did not answer immediately because he was busy rubbing his eyes. What happened here to Alta?

"Oh my! Eye pain!" She complained while still rubbing her eyes.

"What just happened?"

"Something came in my eyes, it just went somewhere! Two more eyes really! The pain!" She was so close to my shoulder, her eyes were closed, she rub it slowly.

She blinked many times before looking at me. My eyes widened when I saw her eyes. The missing memory strikes my mind like thunder.

I fell into the abyss. I did not drown because someone rescued me.

That man!

The image of his strong arms holding me, flash on my mind. The moon light is hitting his body making him shine that night. The sound of the waves and his cold body.

My body stiffened when I realized what was missing in my memory last night. I shivered as I stared at Alta's eyes looking at mine.

Alta's eyes are red, probably because of the ring that came into her eyes. It was as if I was staring into that man's eyes as I stared at Alta.

Fucky no!

That was the last I saw last night before I lost my sight. That’s what I forgot to remember! Why did I forget ?!

Her forehead puckered, I'm sure she's confused by my sudden action.

"Hey! What happened to my eyes and you look so shocked ?! Blushing? Is it too red? Hala Jusko!" He remembers his promise.

"Hey! Come with me first, it's too early."

I still couldn't speak, I just let him pull me somewhere.

She washed her face in the bathroom near the park.

"Still red?"

Her eyes are not that red anymore unlike a while ago.

"Not that much."

"It's good! My eyes are still sore. What's the matter with me?" She looked in the mirror then examined his eyes.

Until now it could not be erased from my mind I remembered. The man's eyes were red. I don’t know his name but I let him come with me to the forest.

What a fucky decision right?

In my desire to prove myself I let that man go!

"What happened to you? I just kept quiet about that."

"H-ha?" What did Alta say? I never heard because I was busy thinking.

"I don't know about you, Adra! Your mind is going somewhere. I'll be the first, thanks for coming. Only later!" he said smiling before marching out of the bathroom.

I also went out and while walking I still couldn't get my mind off what had happened. There is also a question that bothers me. 'Why is his eye red?'

When I entered the class without that man, I would have planned to talk to him in case he is not here. Where did that go? The class ended with me learning nothing because I couldn’t focus.

"Aw!" I shouted. What the heck! Not even being careful. I turned to the one who was staring at me.

"I'm sorry... I'm not staring at my path, I'm really sorry."

My forehead furrowed when I heard the voice of the woman bent over.

Don't tell him it's bothering me again today.

"Layla?" He raised his head, his eyes widened when he saw me.

"A-adra! I-I'm really sorry, we're confused again. I'm sorry," she stuttered.

"No, it's fine." It's not fine. This is the second time she bumped into me.

The road was wide and there were almost no other students by my side so it was impossible for him to hit me again. I couldn't help but wonder if he meant the jar to me.

"S-sorry that's really Adra!"

I didn't hear what he said because I suddenly felt devastated, as if I was getting cold.

My forehead furrowed.

"Did you feel that?" I asked her.

His two eyebrows will meet. "W-what?"

"Suddenly cool." I then promised to look around. My eye caught the man walking not far from us.

Fucky! That's him!

I walked quickly in the direction of that man, I couldn't say goodbye to Layla, he couldn't understand me either.

I got to the hallway where he turned but he wasn’t there.

Fucky! Where is that?

I sighed and rolled my eyes around, where could he have slipped? His speed was out of my sight. I didn't run slow, he was just really fast.

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes hard. I shuddered to see him appear in front of me.

Fucky!

My gaze remained on his eyes. It wasn’t red like I saw last night. His eyes weren't red either before. So why do I expect her eyes to be red now?

But why did his eyes turn red last night? It's impossible just because of the light or something.

"Why are you following me, Miss?" He asked.

"I-i just want to ask something..." I stammered.

He did not speak, he remained staring at me. "H-how did I get home last night?"

His eyes narrowed and his eyebrows furrowed.

"What?"

"How did I get home last night? The last thing I remember was I fell into the ravine and when I woke up I was already at home."

His forehead furrowed even more at what I said. He even approached me as a reason to map me back.

His face is serious. "You can still remember?"

Probably! What did he think I would force that? I almost died so I will never forget that!

"Yes, why can I forget?" Instead of answering me, he pulled my wrist into the classroom without a classmate. I stood near the door.

I leaned back against the door then turned to him. "I have another question,"

"Why are your eyes red?" Her eyes widened slightly and her mouth opened.

"That was the last thing I saw before I fainted."

He came closer to me. He stared into my eyes intently. It was as if he was talking to me by staring at a language I didn't understand. It took a minute then he moved away a little and took his eyes off me. I blinked a few times.

"What happened?" Why is he staring at me for so long? What is he going to do?

"Finally," he said in relief.

"What finally? Why are you saying that?" His eyes widened again.

"Why are you staring at me for so long? You didn't save me last night, you can stare at me for a long time. I don't even know you, I don't even know your name."

"What the hell?" his voice was already tinged with irritation.

He approached me again, just staring at me again as I averted my eyes. He grabbed my chin and gestured it forward so that our eyes would meet. I didn't let that happen because I closed my eyes.

I heard him groan in frustration.

What is this man's problem? Suddenly he stared. "Why don't you answer me?" He did not speak.

"I won't open my eyes if you don't answer me." I strongly promise.

I need answers, not a fucky long stare from him. I can't hear anything from him. It feels like he's not in this room anymore.

Slowly I opened my eyes, I rolled my eyes around.

Fucky! He is no longer here! How did that happen? I blocked the door! I also haven’t heard that noise so how did he get out of this place?

My attention caught the window open, the curtains dancing in the air coming from outside.

It’s impossible for him to go out the window because he doesn’t fit in there!

How did that go away?

Fucky! What is going on around me right now? I'm confused.

Fucky! My eyes widened when I realized something.

Fucky! Why didn't I think of that ?!
