When I was younger, I was so amazed to see this girl in front of me. This girl is an average girl. She is simple and she doesn’t change herself just to be accepted by everyone. She loves to make people happy. She is confident of herself and she always believes that she can do anything. She believes that, if another person can do, why not she can’t. This girl is neither that pretty nor ugly. Her face is heart-shaped. Her eyes are quite tiny and black. Her nose is not that pointed but it fits her face. Her lips are small. Her skin is light brown. She is not that tall unlike others. Well, no matter how people might describe her, I still love her. She is my best friend since childhood and she’s my guardian. Though people might tease her sometimes and say things at her back, I really don’t care at all. I know her and they don’t, so there’s no reality to what they were saying at her back.
But there’s a day that I completely lost my best friend. I remember before, there are lots of times that I was influenced to do bad things, but this person in front of me never fails to warn and guide me. I know I made so many mistakes that brought pain to her. I know I made her cry lots of times. I know I bruised her so much. One day, I completely left her alone and lost her in the dark. But then, I heard a calling. I heard her voice calling me to come back to her. She was crying. And then I came to realized that maybe that is the reason why I always cried at night. Maybe that is also why I found my life so sad and incomplete. I missed this girl and I admit it, the girl that is always by my side, and the girl who makes me happy, the girl whom I considered as my best friend and the girl who rocks my world. I respond to her calling and I found her again. When I saw her, I saw the marks of all the pain I brought to her. I never thought that all I’ve done would mark that much. She was really in pain. I saw her tears roll through her cheeks. I wiped it and smiled at her.
“Hey, best friend. I’ll never have a best friend as good as you are. I’m sorry if I became so careless about you. I’m sorry if I made a lot of mistakes. I’m sorry I made you cry. I’m sorry I left you alone in the dark. I’m sorry I didn’t fight for you. Don’t cry, now that I am back to you, we will make a big tandem to all.” I said while wiping her tears.
I missed this girl that I usually have. This girl will always be a part of me.Now that I am continuously changing, I know I’ll make her happy again. I know it’s been so long since I last saw her, and now, here I am seeing her again. I know this girl might not look like a princess to other people, but inside, she is a real princess. She is a princess and I am proud of it.
One morning when I got up out of bed, I peeked to see her again, and to my surprise, this girl is recovering from the dark. She looks awesome and definitely enjoying. I smiled at her, and she smiled back at me.

2010......
"Hello? Anybody home?" She shouted after knocking on the door. I am your new neighbor. I just want to ask something. Hello?" Nobody answers her so she thought that maybe no one lives there.
Nathalie Sy is a well-known writer in their country. She transferred to a new house, from urban to rural. She choose to be in a house isolated from others so that she can write her new novel without any distraction. She loved her new home for it is big and its location is peaceful.
One night while she's writing her novel, she noticed something outside her window. The first time she noticed it she didn't care at all but the second time it disturbed her makes her wonder what it is. She opened the window but she saw nothing. When she closed the window, she noticed it again. It looks like a girl running so fast, back and forth. She decided to go outside to check it. With her flashlight, she went to the place where she noticed it. She felt cold while she was there. She saw nothing so she decided to go back. While walking she saw from the window of her house that there is someone inside, standing beside her computer. She thought that maybe it was a robber so she ran fast to attack it. She silently walked inside and search for the person she saw. She searched all over the house but she saw nothing. She laughed at herself. "Silly. Am I already hallucinating due to stress?" She went back to her computer. She was shocked that the computer is turned off. She looked at the CPU but it is still running. She tried opening the monitor but it is turned on already. She felt something at her back and she turned her head to check what it is but she saw nothing. When she looked back at her computer, a horrifying face in the monitor shocked her. It was a girl who looks so horrible and her face is full of blood. That girl looked familiar to her. She unplugged the computer and walk backwards. Her heart was beating so fast. Nobody is there and there are only two houses in that place and the city is far from her house. She can't call anybody for help. She closed the door of her house and ran upstairs. She was so scared that she locked herself inside her room. She cover herself with blanket. She closed her eyes in fright and she fell asleep.
When Nathalie woke up, she felt so exhausted. She got up and ate her breakfast. She is still puzzled to what she saw last night. Because of it, she decided to go to the city where the care taker of the house lives. She'll ask about the house's history. When she got there, there were investigators, cops and an ambulance surrounding the house of the care taker.
"Excuse me sheriff, what's the commotion here?" Nathalie asked.
"We received a call last night from a lady who's asking for help. And when we arrived here at the location, the lady who called is already dead."
Nathalie's eyes widen when she heard it. "Sheriff, the owner of this house is the care taker of the new house where I transferred. May I see the lady? I just want to check if she's the care taker of my house."
"Yes you may. Follow me. But, remember ma'am that you should have a strong heart if you want to see her face. It is reallyhorrible."
Nathalie is so nervous while she was removing the cover of the dead lady's body. When she saw the face of the lady, her heart beats even faster. She almost cried when she saw it. She ran out of the ambulance and went inside her car and drove home. She can still remember the face of the lady.
"Is it a deja vu? I saw that face before but I'm not sure where." Nathalie said in her mind.
When she was about to go to the kitchen, she passed through the computer and remembered what happened last night. She looked at the computer and remembered where she saw the face of the lady.
"Oh shit!" She shouted.
She dialed her phone to call her boyfriend.
"Hey honey, would you mind to stay with me for two weeks? I don't want to be alone here honey. Please come here. Please."
"Why? Hey hey, Calm down honey. What's wrong?"
"It's a long story. Please just go here. I need you."
"Alright, don't worry I'll be there."
Nathalie is out of her mind due to what she saw. She is still puzzled and horrified. Her boyfriend Henry Pete Castro or Pete already arrived. He knocks on the door but no one is answering so he just opened it. When he saw Nathalie, he smiled.
"Honey, why aren't you opening the door? And why is it not locked? You should lock it right?" Nathalie didn't answer. She is just staring at the floor. Pete was wondering why Nathalie was silent and why she doesn't care at all. He went in front of her and sit.
"Hey, what's wrong? Why do you look so pale? Why do you look so horrified?" Pete asked but Nathalie is still not moving and not blinking at all. Pete was horrified. He hugged her and her body is so cold.
"Honey! Come on! What's wrong?" Pete shouted. Pete went to the kitchen to get a drink for Nathalie. When he came back there, Nathalie is already gone. He wonders where she went. He didn't heard any sounds and the door is still closed and locked.
"Nathalie??" He shouted. Pete searched for her.
"Hey honey you're already here." Nathalie said while removing the keys from her door. "Why did you locked the door. I don't lock it when I am outside. I think this place is safe from robbers because it is isolated."
"Whoa! Where have you gone?" Pete asked with shock.
"Why do you look so horrified? I came from the market to buy you a food. Are you okay honey?" "What? But how? When I came here in your house, I saw you sitting at that chair staring at the floor, not moving and not even talking to me. I hugged you and your body is so cold."
"Honey don't trip like that."
"Honey I'm telling the truth. I saw you. I just went to the kitchen to get some water for you when suddenly you're gone. And then you entered the house. I was shocked that you're already talking and moving. And, you're already wearing a shirt and a pants."
"Maybe you're just hallucinating honey. Come on, let's eat and forget about that okay? It's just your wild imagination. Alright?"
"But....."
Nathalie kissed his lips. "It's just your imagination. Okay?" Nathalie hugged her.
"A-a-alright honey."
Nathalie was so happy that Pete is there with her. She already forgot what had happened because of Pete. She didn't mind telling him the story and just enjoyed their day.
One night when Pete and Nathalie were watching television, Nathalie asked him to buy her a food to eat. She is very hungry.
"Alright I'll buy you a food. Don't you want to come with me?"
"I don't like honey. I'll just watch here."
But I want to be assured that you'll be fine here alone."
"I'll be alright. I'm really hungry. But please, go home immediately."
"Alright." Pete kissed her before he went to the market.
While Pete was choosing for food that he will buy, he saw a lady who looked like Nathalie. She was sitting in a chair and she is not moving. He walked fast towards her to check if it is really Nathalie. When he was already near, he slowly glance at her face. When he saw her, it is really Nathalie. He was surprised that Nathalie is there, sitting and staring blankly at the floor.
"Nat, why are you here? Did you follow me honey? I thought you don't like to come with me?"
Nathalie did not respond to him. Suddenly, he remembered the first time he came to Nathalie's house. What he saw that day is the same as what he sees right now. His eyes widen and his heart beats so fast that he can hear it. He ran as fast as he can to check if Nathalie is alright. He started his car. He tried to call Nathalie but she is not answering.
"Come on honey, answer the phone."
When he's already at the house he hurriedly opened the door. He saw Nathalie there still watching. He sighed and he felt relieved.
"Honey, thank God you're fine." He walked towards her and was shocked to see the same thing on what he saw before and at the market, .
"Nathalie? Honey? Oh please Honey speak up. Hey. Tell me this is a joke. Please honey. No.." Pete cried. He hugged her. When he pushed her back, he was shocked because Nathalie's face was rotten already. It is full of blood and is distorted. It is very horrifying. He stood up and cried. He called the ambulance for help and he also called the police.
Pete still can't believe to what had happened. He is still crying while at the hospital. He loves Nathalie so much.
3 day passed...
While Pete was cleaning Nathalie's house, he saw a room that he haven't entered since he has been there. It looks like a depot because all the old things are there. He tried to clean that room as well. As he was cleaning, he saw a big box. He opened it and it is full of photos mostly of a couple. After seeing all the pictures, he saw a diary and there is a blood in it. He opened it and he read it. He was curious why the last date in the diary and all the things written in it is written by blood. He tried to investigate about Tamara Nicole Oasis, the owner of the diary, in the internet. He discovered where this girl studied. He went there and ask the president of the school about Mara.
"Good morning ma'am."
"Good morning mister. What can I do for you?"
"Ma'am, I am Henry Pete Castro. I just want to ask you about Miss Tamara Nicole Oasis. According to my research, she came from this school. I just want to know where she is right now."
"Are you a relative of Miss Oasis?"
"No ma'am. I'm just a friend of her's."
"Well, I am one of Miss Oasis' classmates before. She died 30 years ago. Her death is not an accident. According to investigators, a gang raped her and killed her morbidly. Investigators looked and searched for this gang but they didn't find them. Investigators already closed the case of Miss Oasis because it is really difficult for them to find the group who killed and raped her. They think that this group already migrated somewhere. But, there's one person who can help you. Miss Oasis have this boyfriend named Carl Vincent Marco or Carvin. I think he knows everything about her. This is where he lives. I'm not sure if that is still his address. But might as well check it out."
"Thanks you so much ma'am."
"You are welcome."
Pete went to the address which the principal, of Mara's former school, gave. Luckily, Carvin still lives there.
"Uhm, good noon Sir. I just want to interview you. May I come in?"
"No!" Carvin shouted. "I don't want any interview." He was about to go back inside his house when suddenly, Pete mentioned Mara's name.
"How did you know about Mara?" He asked.
"My girlfriend bought the Mara's house. Sadly, she died. According to the investigators, the care taker of the house also died. When I was cleaning the house, I saw a room and there I saw a box full of photos and here, this diary, I saw this there as well. I just find it weird that in the last day she wrote, was written by blood. And another weird thing is she said there anyone who read you will die. I just want to know more about Mara and according to the principal of the school where both of you studied, you can help me out."
"You also read the diary?!" He asked with his eyes wide open.
"Yes."
Carvin looked so worry about the guy and said, "I'm sorry, but you're next."
"Huh? W-w-what are you talking about?"
"Just like what you read from the diary, that anyone who'll read it will die. The care taker and your girlfriend came from the house. They died because of Mara's curse. Anyone who'll read that diary will die."
Pete was horrified to what Carvin said. He felt so cold.
"W-w-what can I do? I don't want to die. How can I break the curse? Please help me."
"I'm sorry. I am a sinner. If I didn't let that thing happen then, maybe, you'll live peacefully."
"What?"
"I was considered as the heartthrob of our school before. I met Mara because she is my classmate. I encountered her in our first day with my friends. My friends dare me to date Mara and I did it even though I don't like her. When I passed the dare, I brought Mara with me to my friends. I said sorry to her and walked away. In the evening, in our house, I received a call from one of my friends. He said that Mara was delicious. I was shocked to what he said. Then he admitted that they raped Mara and after raping her, they killed her. I'm so horrified to what had happened. That is really not with the plan but I don't know why they have done that thing. I hang up the phone. My friend called me again and they said that all of them will migrate to California. They also said that I should keep quiet and never tell anyone about it. Now, all of them already died. No one was left."
"That was very horrible. Why did you do that?! See what you've done to my girlfriend and to me! You immature!"
"I said I'm sorry."
Pete was so angry that time. "Do you have a lighter or match there?"
"Yes I have a lighter here."
"Please give me the lighter." and Carvin gave it to him.
Pete light the diary and burned it.
"Now that it is already burned, I think the curse will now end." Pete said with a cold smile.
"But it is endless. You just make it worst for you."
"Shut up idiot!" Pete shouted. After burning the diary, he left it and Carvin.
"That stupid guy. Curse don't exist now. I know I'll be fine. Huh."
He returned to his house and cooked his dinner. While eating, he heard some noise upstairs. He checked it out. There's nothing there. When he went back at the dinning room he was shocked to see himself smiling at him. His body was bloody and his face was distorted. He was horrified to see himself like that. He ran fast and went outside the house. He tried to look back and when he look again in front, he saw himself again.
"Stop! No.........."

"Alright whatever you say."

Dear Diary,
I had a lot of fun at school. Earlier this morning, I was
so excited to go to school to meet new friends. I am now an official first year
COLLEGE student. I felt random while I was walking at the corridor. I don't know
if I am going to be excited or nervous. When I am about to enter my first class,
a guy suddenly bumped me from my back. I was mesmerized when I saw his face. He
is so handsome. He looks so mysterious and he is very masculine. I gazed at his
eyes as he asked if I'm alright. I didn't answer his question, I was very
hypnotized by his appearance. His eyes twinkle. His nose is pointed. His lips
are reddish in color and small. His teeth when he smiles are as white as pearl.
His face is spotless. The best thing that captures me is his fragrance. He smell
so good. But, my perfect moment was disrupted when his friends came in to
action. They all laughed at me, and teased me. I know I'm not that pretty, or
let's just say, I know I look like a monster and I am used to it. I was so
embarrassed that these guys are insulting me in front of Mr.handsome guy. :( My
cheeks blushed in humiliation. Well, I was shocked that Mr.handsome guy stopped
them and ask for an apology for what had happened. It is my first time to be
saved by a handsome guy from bullies. Because of my great shock, I can't move
and I'm stuck there for roughly 30 secs. He and his friends went inside and left
me. I felt so happy that at least, this Mr.handsome guy saved me. He is my
superman. :) Because it is our 1st time in class, of course our professor asked
us our names one by one. I introduced my self like this. "Hi I'm Tamara Nicole
Oasis and you can just call me Mara". I really love my name, isn't it beautiful?
Well at least though my face is horrifying, still my name is lovely. I was so
excited to know Mr.handsome guy's name. But unfortunately, our professor asked
for a favor. He wants me to buy him a bottle of water from the cafeteria. Gees,
what a great timing right? I was angry that time because 5 people to go then it
is Mr.handsome guy's turn! I almost turned to an ogre, but I can't do anything
but to follow his command. I ran as fast as I can, and take note, it is from 4th
floor to the ground floor. That's exhausting! When I came back at our class
room, it's hard for me to catch my breath. Sadly, the boy next from him is
already introducing himself. I'm not able to get Mr.handsome guy's name. That's
the only subject that we're classmates. So I'm not able to get his name. How sad
right? :( But maybe in due time I'll discover his name. There's gonna be more to
come tomorrow. :)

Dear Diary,
I
HAD A LOT OF FUN! Well, I mark this day as my favorite day! HORAH! I never
expected that this thing will happen. YES! Fairytale do come true. I witnessed
it a while ago. I am the beast and he is the handsome. HANDSOME AND BEAST. It
was our lunch break back then when Mr.handsome guy approached me! YES he
approached me! I was alone in a table for two at the cafeteria, when suddenly a
guy at my back asked me if it is okay to join me. I looked at this guy to know
who he is and to my surprise, it was Mr.handsome guy. I don't know how to react
that time but I let him sit. Both of us were very quiet. I can't eat and I felt
so nervous. He asked me if I'm alright and I answered him with a stuttering
voice. I just can't hide how nervous I am. If only I am pretty like the popular
girls whom he was always with, then surely I'll not be as nervous and timid as I
was that time. I really don't have the power to ask for his name but still I
tried. I break the silence and asked for his name. "Oh, didn't you know my name
still? I've mentioned it yesterday at our first class". He said it with smiles
in his face. I said that our professor asked me a favor and then there he
introduced himself. His name is very cute. He is Carl Vincent Marco or Carvin.
Carvin is so unique. YES? His face is good and as well as his name. I fell in
love even more. I like him.... SO MUCH! I found it very hard to talk with him
because I can't look at him straight in the eye. I kept on removing my eyes from
his eyes. He is done eating and still I am not. I CAN'T EAT! I thought if he
finished his food he'll leave me already, but he didn't. He said that he'll wait
for me. I was shy that I just said to him that I'm done eating. We walked
together at the corridor and up to our class room. We don't talk that much but
if ever we do talk, he was always the one who starts the conversation. When we
enter the class room, everybody is there except for his bully friends, whom I
hate. I sit far away from him so that he'll not notice that I like him. This day
ended well. I'm so happy to know my dear Carvin. If only you knew how much I
love you Carvin! :)

Dear Diary,
I had my heart
broken this day. I tried to audition in our school's glee club but they didn't
accepted me. I know for myself that I am a good singer. Why did they not
appreciate it? Maybe they were also after the appearance. Maybe because I look
so horrifying? I don't know but it really gave me a heart ache.
Because of this, I cried. To my surprise a hand holding a
handkerchief appears in front of me. It was Carvin. I thought I'll be crying
there on my own but luckily, someone was there to comfort me. I didn't get his
handkerchief so he went in front of me and sit and wiped my tears. I KNOW, I
KNOW. This moment is so sweet. I almost forgot that my heart was aching. My
superman saved me again. While walking, Carvin is with me. We talked, giggled
and laughed. But one thing puzzled me, his bully friends doesn't care if ever
their friend is with me. They were not teasing me already. It is as if they're
already afraid of me? Oh well, that is much better than being teased right?
While me and Carvin were waiting for our drivers to fetch us, his driver came
first. He told me to come with him so I did. I felt so happy a while ago. He
acted as if he is my boyfriend. Even our classmates are wondering why this
handsome guy is hanging out with an ugly person who is me. Well maybe he just
find me as a friend. NO BODY KNOWS. :) I had fun this day. My heart that has
been broken, was fixed by a very good mender. :)

Dear Diary,
HE LOVES ME, HE LOVES ME NOT, HE LOVES ME, HE LOVES ME NOT,
HE LOVES ME! :) HE DOES! Yes Diary, He loves me! This day is AWESOME! I'm so in
love with my superman! Me and my superman Carvin went to his home after class.
He is alone there with his maid. Well I really hate that maid because she keep
on murmuring that I'm ugly for his boss. Alright, I know I'm ugly. Even though
she only whispered it, well i heard it. I'm so angry with that maid. Pity on
her. Well back to my story. While me and Carvin was at the living room watching
movie, he suddenly held my hand. I was shocked. I looked at him with a smile and
he looked at me as well. He held my hand tight and he moved closer to me. He
looked at me with a smile. He asked me if I'm okay. Well, he always ask that. He
never fails to ask me if I am fine. Well, with him, the answer will always be I
am fine. :) I just nod my head as a sign of yes. He caressed me. This time, I
know that he like me! Am I right? YES? I tilt my head to his chest and to my
surprise, he kissed my head. :) I just love that moment! I always ask myself,
why in the Earth does he choose me? Why me if there are lots of pretty girls
around who likes him? WHY ME? Well, I guess that's really how mystical love is.
When were done watching, he asked me if I will go home already. Well, my Mom and
Dad knows about him so I am not worried whether I go home late. My parents trust
me so much and I'll not break their trust. I called my Dad that time and Carvin
talked to him. When he hang up the phone, he smiled. It only means that my
father agreed that I can go home around 7-8 in the evening. We ate, we laughed,
we shared stories. It was 8 in the evening when he drove me home. When I was
about to go out of the car, he kissed me goodbye on my lips. He doesn't say "I
LOVE YOU" but his actions proved that he loves me. :) this day is full of
surprises!! Is he already my boyfriend?

Dear Diary,
I am very sorry that I haven't updated you already. I'm
just so busy for school and as well for my superman. :) I'm just so curious why
he doesn't say I love you to me. He also doesn't confirm if he is already my
boyfriend. Well, I'll wait. :) Another weird thing is his friends. They don't
bother us at all unlike the other people in our class, who always have this
violent reactions when they saw us together. Don't worry my diary, I'll update
you if I can. :) I LOVE CARL VINCENT MARCO SO MUCH. What could be his surprise

"Hey honey you're already here." Nathalie said while removing the keys from her door. "Why did you locked the door. I don't lock it when I am outside. I think this place is safe from robbers because it is isolated."
"Whoa! Where have you gone?" Pete asked with shock.
"Why do you look so horrified? I came from the market to buy you a food. Are you okay honey?" "What? But how? When I came here in your house, I saw you sitting at that chair staring at the floor, not moving and not even talking to me. I hugged you and your body is so cold."
"Honey don't trip like that."
"Honey I'm telling the truth. I saw you. I just went to the kitchen to get some water for you when suddenly you're gone. And then you entered the house. I was shocked that you're already talking and moving. And, you're already wearing a shirt and a pants."
"Maybe you're just hallucinating honey. Come on, let's eat and forget about that okay? It's just your wild imagination. Alright?"
"But....."
Nathalie kissed his lips. "It's just your imagination. Okay?" Nathalie hugged her.
"A-a-alright honey."
Nathalie was so happy that Pete is there with her. She already forgot what had happened because of Pete. She didn't mind telling him the story and just enjoyed their day.
One night when Pete and Nathalie were watching television, Nathalie asked him to buy her a food to eat. She is very hungry.
"Alright I'll buy you a food. Don't you want to come with me?"
"I don't like honey. I'll just watch here."
But I want to be assured that you'll be fine here alone."
"I'll be alright. I'm really hungry. But please, go home immediately."
"Alright." Pete kissed her before he went to the market.
While Pete was choosing for food that he will buy, he saw a lady who looked like Nathalie. She was sitting in a chair and she is not moving. He walked fast towards her to check if it is really Nathalie. When he was already near, he slowly glance at her face. When he saw her, it is really Nathalie. He was surprised that Nathalie is there, sitting and staring blankly at the floor.
"Nat, why are you here? Did you follow me honey? I thought you don't like to come with me?"
Nathalie did not respond to him. Suddenly, he remembered the first time he came to Nathalie's house. What he saw that day is the same as what he sees right now. His eyes widen and his heart beats so fast that he can hear it. He ran as fast as he can to check if Nathalie is alright. He started his car. He tried to call Nathalie but she is not answering.
"Come on honey, answer the phone."
When he's already at the house he hurriedly opened the door. He saw Nathalie there still watching. He sighed and he felt relieved.
"Honey, thank God you're fine." He walked towards her and was shocked to see the same thing on what he saw before and at the market, .
"Nathalie? Honey? Oh please Honey speak up. Hey. Tell me this is a joke. Please honey. No.." Pete cried. He hugged her. When he pushed her back, he was shocked because Nathalie's face was rotten already. It is full of blood and is distorted. It is very horrifying. He stood up and cried. He called the ambulance for help and he also called the police.
Pete still can't believe to what had happened. He is still crying while at the hospital. He loves Nathalie so much.
3 day passed...
While Pete was cleaning Nathalie's house, he saw a room that he haven't entered since he has been there. It looks like a depot because all the old things are there. He tried to clean that room as well. As he was cleaning, he saw a big box. He opened it and it is full of photos mostly of a couple. After seeing all the pictures, he saw a diary and there is a blood in it. He opened it and he read it. He was curious why the last date in the diary and all the things written in it is written by blood. He tried to investigate about Tamara Nicole Oasis, the owner of the diary, in the internet. He discovered where this girl studied. He went there and ask the president of the school about Mara.
"Good morning ma'am."
"Good morning mister. What can I do for you?"
"Ma'am, I am Henry Pete Castro. I just want to ask you about Miss Tamara Nicole Oasis. According to my research, she came from this school. I just want to know where she is right now."
"Are you a relative of Miss Oasis?"
"No ma'am. I'm just a friend of her's."
"Well, I am one of Miss Oasis' classmates before. She died 30 years ago. Her death is not an accident. According to investigators, a gang raped her and killed her morbidly. Investigators looked and searched for this gang but they didn't find them. Investigators already closed the case of Miss Oasis because it is really difficult for them to find the group who killed and raped her. They think that this group already migrated somewhere. But, there's one person who can help you. Miss Oasis have this boyfriend named Carl Vincent Marco or Carvin. I think he knows everything about her. This is where he lives. I'm not sure if that is still his address. But might as well check it out."
"Thanks you so much ma'am."
"You are welcome."
Pete went to the address which the principal, of Mara's former school, gave. Luckily, Carvin still lives there.
"Uhm, good noon Sir. I just want to interview you. May I come in?"
"No!" Carvin shouted. "I don't want any interview." He was about to go back inside his house when suddenly, Pete mentioned Mara's name.
"How did you know about Mara?" He asked.
"My girlfriend bought the Mara's house. Sadly, she died. According to the investigators, the care taker of the house also died. When I was cleaning the house, I saw a room and there I saw a box full of photos and here, this diary, I saw this there as well. I just find it weird that in the last day she wrote, was written by blood. And another weird thing is she said there anyone who read you will die. I just want to know more about Mara and according to the principal of the school where both of you studied, you can help me out."
"You also read the diary?!" He asked with his eyes wide open.
"Yes."
Carvin looked so worry about the guy and said, "I'm sorry, but you're next."
"Huh? W-w-what are you talking about?"
"Just like what you read from the diary, that anyone who'll read it will die. The care taker and your girlfriend came from the house. They died because of Mara's curse. Anyone who'll read that diary will die."
Pete was horrified to what Carvin said. He felt so cold.
"W-w-what can I do? I don't want to die. How can I break the curse? Please help me."
"I'm sorry. I am a sinner. If I didn't let that thing happen then, maybe, you'll live peacefully."
"What?"
"I was considered as the heartthrob of our school before. I met Mara because she is my classmate. I encountered her in our first day with my friends. My friends dare me to date Mara and I did it even though I don't like her. When I passed the dare, I brought Mara with me to my friends. I said sorry to her and walked away. In the evening, in our house, I received a call from one of my friends. He said that Mara was delicious. I was shocked to what he said. Then he admitted that they raped Mara and after raping her, they killed her. I'm so horrified to what had happened. That is really not with the plan but I don't know why they have done that thing. I hang up the phone. My friend called me again and they said that all of them will migrate to California. They also said that I should keep quiet and never tell anyone about it. Now, all of them already died. No one was left."
"That was very horrible. Why did you do that?! See what you've done to my girlfriend and to me! You immature!"
"I said I'm sorry."
Pete was so angry that time. "Do you have a lighter or match there?"
"Yes I have a lighter here."
"Please give me the lighter." and Carvin gave it to him.
Pete light the diary and burned it.
"Now that it is already burned, I think the curse will now end." Pete said with a cold smile.
"But it is endless. You just make it worst for you."
"Shut up idiot!" Pete shouted. After burning the diary, he left it and Carvin.
"That stupid guy. Curse don't exist now. I know I'll be fine. Huh."
He returned to his house and cooked his dinner. While eating, he heard some noise upstairs. He checked it out. There's nothing there. When he went back at the dinning room he was shocked to see himself smiling at him. His body was bloody and his face was distorted. He was horrified to see himself like that. He ran fast and went outside the house. He tried to look back and when he look again in front, he saw himself again.
"Stop! No.........."

Her Love
Share
It was raining that night when Sally decided to leave her family. She packed all the things she needed in advance so that she can leave without any struggles. Silently, she went out of the room and left with tears in her eyes. She find it difficult to walk under the strong wind and the heavy rain. She almost decided to go back inside their house, but she insisted. She is about to cross the road when suddenly, a strong headlight shocked her..
Mary Rosally Aragon is the beautiful daughter of Josephine Ocampo - Aragon and Anthony Aragon. She didn't came to a wealthy family. In fact, her family's source of income is only through their little store and with their farm. Since childhood, her Mother didn't show her love to Sally. Yet, Sally did her best just for her Mother to love her.
One morning when Sally was about to go to school, she unintentionally heard her Mother talking to her older sister Martha.
Ana Martha Aragon is the eldest. She is the smartest and wisest among them. She is beautiful, that every guys in their town would turn their heads whenever she's around.
"If you want to study for College, well then, we will provide you money. But one of your siblings should stop studying." Her Mother said.
"But Mom, who should stop among them? Wouldn't it be unfair?" Martha said.
"How about.... Sally? She is stupid and I think she can manage to help us in farming and in our store."
"But Mom...." --
"No buts! Tell her immediately to stop going to school!"
"O-okay Mom."
When Martha went out of the room, she was shocked that Sally is there listening.
"Oh Sally! How long have you been there?" Martha asked horrifically.
"Minutes. Don't worry I heard what you and Mom are talking about, and don't be sad nor afraid, I'll do whatever Mom wants me to do."
"Are you sure? No hurt feelings?"
"Martha, all I want is to make Mom happy. All I want is for her to love me. If this will make her love me and if she'll be happy with this, then I'll do it." Sally smiled.
"Oh Sally, if I am your Mom, I'll surely say that your the best daughter I ever have!" hugged Sally tight. "Don't worry Sally, if I finished college after five years, both of us will go to other states! Is that okay?" "Of course it'll be very okay!" Sally wearing a big smile hugged Martha tightly.
Sally spend all her time working hard for her mother. She helped her all the time, but still, she doesn't talk that much to Sally unlike what she does to her other children.
5 years later.....
While Sally is in charge of their store, she remembered what Martha told her before; "Don't worry Sally, if I finished college after five years, both of us will go to other states! Is that okay?" then she smiled. Tomorrow is Martha's graduation and Sally wanted to come, but her Mother won't allow her. So she told her younger brother, Andy, to text her what's happening.
On Martha's graduation, her Mother was very happy. She is very proud of her daughter!
"Ladies and gentleman, presenting the candidates for the 90th commencement exercise headed by, Aragon, Ana Martha, Summa cum laude."
Sally was very excited for Martha's home come back. She prepared the house and cooked all the foods well. When her brother Andy texted that the graduation is done and they'll be home soon, she started preparing for herself. She waited at the front door for long but still they're still not there. Her phone rings and it's Andy. She answered it with excitement. "Andy! Where's Martha? I want to talk to her, give her the phone." Andy sobs. Sally draining her excitement asked why. Then she dropped her phone and cried.
Martha was hit and run by a 10-wheeler truck never noticing it due to her excitement. One of the investigators came to their house and tell the whole story.
"The driver of the 10-wheeler truck surrendered and tell the story to us. According to him, he was paid by a girl asking him to bump a new graduate girl. It is not supposed to be Martha, but unfortunately he bumped the wrong person. Don't worry Ma'am, we'll search for this girl the driver is talking about. Condolence"
Martha's body was cremated due to lack of money. That day, Sally gave her a coffee. Her mother threw it away and shouted;
"You are the black sheep of the family! I just hope you didn't exist in our lives! If only you're not here then surely your Father is still alive and Martha wouldn't die like that! You're a jinx! Get out of here! Get lost!"
Sally begged for forgiveness but her Mother did not care. She wanted to make her Mother happy, so she decided to leave as what her Mother told so.
Sally didn't know where to go. She slept on streets. She haven't eaten anything for three consecutive days. While walking on the streets she fainted and fell on the ground. A guy saw her and helped her.
When Sally woke up she saw a cute little guy.
"Where am I?" she tried to get up but she's very weak.
"Daddy! The girl is awake! The girl is awake!" The little guy shouted.
"Whoa, whoa, Okay, I'm coming dear!"
"Hey who are you little kid?" Sally asked.
"I'm Jhonny!" Introducing himself with a grin.
Sally smiled. "Nice meeting you cute little Jhonny."
"Exccuse me?" Knocking at the door.
"Daddy! Hey, this is my Dad." Jhonny introduced excitedly.
"Alright let me introduce myself, I'm Jhon Carl Lee or you can call me JC."
Jhon Carl Lee or also known as Jc is not just an ordinary person. He belongs to a rich family, well-known for their Big company, "The Lee Corporation". He is the President of their company while his Parents are the Chief Executive Officers. Jc is 5'9 tall. His eyes are small and cute. His nose is pointed. His lips are small and kissable. He's very masculine and he looks so clean. Once you look at him, you'll surely fell in love with him.
Sally's eyes twinkled when she saw this handsome guy. She didn't notice that Jc is already asking for her name. She's really out of her mind, but Jhonny pinched her.
"Ouch!" Sally screamed.
"Sorry but i thought you're dead again." Jhonny said wearing a sad face.
"Dear that is bad and don't do it again. Maybe she's just hungry okay?"
"Yes Daddy."
"So back to my question, what's your name?"
"I'm Sally, Sally Aragon."
"Nice meeting you Sally. Do you want to eat? I'm sure you're hungry. Don't say no."
Without any hesitations she answered a yes.
While eating, she shared her story to him and why she was abandoned. Unconsciously, she was able to ask who is the Mother of Jhonny. Jc didn't answered back. So Sally asked it again. Jc pushed back his chair and left the table. One of their maids saw what happened.
"Hi Miss, do you really want to know what happened to Jhonny's Mom?"
"Yes."
"Here is the story. Her wife died because of cancer. The worst thing is, she didn't told it to sir Jc because she was afraid, she doesn't want sir Jc and his son to be lonely and she also doesn't want to be a burden to their family. It was Sir Jc's birthday when his wife died. He is very angry and upset that his wife didn't told it to him. If only she told it then maybe she still have the chance to survive."
"That's a very sad story." Sally said with a frown face. "By the way, how did you know every details?"
"Me and his wife are best friends. Tony is her name, she is also a maid in this house. But fortunately, Sir Jc liked and loved her. But, Sir Jc's parents never liked her for she's a maid. Still, Sir Jc fight for his love. Oh, excuse me, I really have to wash Jhonny's clothes now, don't tell Sir Jc what you find out from me okay?"
"Yes I will don't worry. Thank you so much."
After finding out how sad Jc's story was, she looked for him. When she finally find him, she sat beside him.
"Jc, I'm very sorry if I annoyed you awhile ago."
"It's okay, I'm also sorry if I acted like that. Ugh! Let's just don't talk about it."
"Alright. Well I have to go." Sally stood up and started to walk when...
"W-w-wait!" Jc screamed. "Where are you headed? Where will you stay?"
"I... I don't know. Anywhere?"
"You don't have a place to stay, well you can stay here."
"No thanks. I can manage my self."
"Okay, then leave. Good bye."
After 5 hours.....
"Sir she's back."
"Who?"
"The girl awhile ago."
Jc smiled. "Well, let her in."
Days passed, Sally and Jc began liking each other. It is not impossible for Sally is an attractive girl and as well as Jc being a handsome guy. Jhonny the little boy also began liking Sally that there are times that he call her Mommy.
A year later, Jc decided to confess his feelings to Sally.
One day, Sally and Jc is out to eat lunch together. Suddenly, a kidnapper kidnapped Jc. Sally didn't know what to do so she panicked. A guy called to her phone.
"If you want the guy, go to 5th avenue southwest and you'll find him there. But you shouldn't bring any weapon nor cops with you or else, this guy will die!"
Sally was so horrified that she did what the guy said on the phone. When she arrived at the exact location, she saw Jc tied and full of blood. She's crying while she's removing the rope in his hands. When she's done, she hugged him tightly and ask if he's okay.
Jc whispered on her ears, "Would you be my girl?"
Sally was shocked and pulled him back. "Huh?" She asked again pretending as though she didn't heard it.
"I love you Sally."
Sally grinned and answered back, "I love you even more Jc."
Jc hugged her tight saying, "Yahooo! Yessss! She's my girl!"
Sally laughed. But she was puzzled when she saw the kidnappers surrounding them with flowers.
"w-w-wait! What is this all about? And why the hell are this kidnappers holding? Who are this kidnappers? How come they're not hurting us? Hey hey Jc what's happening?" Sally just can't stop wondering and asking so Jc kissed her lips. Sally's eyes widen in shock. She now understood what's happening. She then closed her eyes.
After a year, they finally get married. Jc decided not to tell his parents about his marriage. He left the company and they left the province. They went to the city. Sally knew why it is his decision so she decided to be innocent about it. She bore a child and named it Marly in memory of her sister Martha.
After 3 years, Sally finally witnessed happiness in her life. With Jc, Jhonny, and Marly, everything is a happily ever after.
One day, Sally noticed that she gets tired easily. She can't even carry her 2 year old daughter, Marly, for 3 minutes. Because of this, she remembered her Father. She never wanted to tell her Mother the reason why her Father died. All her Mother knew is He died because he saved Sally from a truck which is about to bump her. Her Mother didn't knew that her Father wasn't bumped by the truck but it is really his time to say goodbye. Her father has an acute myeloid leukemia and that day is his last day, he took his last breath for saving Sally. By this, she was horrified that maybe her excessive tiredness is one of the symptoms of leukemia. She might inherit it from his father. She decided to schedule a check up to a doctor. The other day, she went to the doctor and had a check up. Sadly, it is positive that she have an acute myeloid leukemia and she inherit it from her father. As day passed by Sally became weaker and weaker. She doesn't want Jc to know it so she kept it.
Sally went back to the doctor.
"Mr.Thompson, can my cancer still be treated?"
"Sorry Mrs.Lee but your cancer is already on its final stage."
Sally went out of the hospital very sad. She look so thin and pale. There are times that Jc notices it but she will just say that it is due to stress.
One night, Sally decided to leave her family. She doesn't want her family to know all about her cancer. She don't want Jc to be upset again. She packed all the things she needed in advance so that she can leave without any struggles. Silently, she went out of the room and left with tears in her eyes. She find it difficult to walk under the strong wind and the heavy rain. She almost decided to go back inside their house, but she insisted. She is about to cross the road when suddenly, a strong headlight shocked her..
Jc mourn hard for his wife's death. He loved her so much.
"Sally gave me the love I have never expected. Because of it, I fell in love even more. She is the best wife on Earth. Everybody will surely love her. I am a lucky fisher for getting a great fish. I love Sally very much."
"My mother Sally is the best Mom I've witnessed. Though she is really not my real Mom, still she portray her role as if she's the real one. No body can compare to her. She is the best forever. I love my Mommy so much."
"My daughter is the best. I know I haven't love her so much but still she show me her love. She never forgets me even though I sent her away of our house. She mailed me money that helped me and her other siblings. I've been a bad Mother to her but I know she'll tell that I am lying. I'm sorry for what I've done Sally. You'll always be in my heart no matter what. I love my daughter more than anyone."
Jc cried so hard when he's done reading the letter he hugged his pillow and cry all day. When they were finally home in their province, he went to Sally's house to gave the letter to Sally's Mom.
When he arrived at Sally house he gave the letter to Sally's Mom. She read the letter aloud so that her two sons can hear it.
Her mom cried, and as well as her siblings, while reading the letter. She cried even harder when she's done reading it. Jc hugged her and they all cried.
30 years later...
Jc is now 80 years old. His son Jhonny already have his own family and as well as Marly. He's now all alone in his big house. While sitting on his favorite chair where He and Sally always sits, his tears flow from his eyes and then he smiled...
Jc died that very day due to his age. He was seen dead sitting in the chair wearing a very beautiful smile.
-- END --
LIFE IS NOT ALWAYS ABOUT HAPPINESS NOR SADNESS. LIFE IS MYSTERIOUS. NO ONE CAN PREDICT ABOUT IT. THE PERFECT SPICE OF LIFE TO MAKE IT WONDERFUL IS LOVE. LIKE WHAT SALLY ALWAYS HOLDS ON TO HER LIFE. LOVE SURELY CONQUERS ALL.

"I... I don't know. Anywhere?"
"You don't have a place to stay, well you can stay here."
"No thanks. I can manage my self."
"Okay, then leave. Good bye."
After 5 hours.....
"Sir she's back."
"Who?"
"The girl awhile ago."
Jc smiled. "Well, let her in."
Days passed, Sally and Jc began liking each other. It is not impossible for Sally is an attractive girl and as well as Jc being a handsome guy. Jhonny the little boy also began liking Sally that there are times that he call her Mommy.
A year later, Jc decided to confess his feelings to Sally.
One day, Sally and Jc is out to eat lunch together. Suddenly, a kidnapper kidnapped Jc. Sally didn't know what to do so she panicked. A guy called to her phone.
"If you want the guy, go to 5th avenue southwest and you'll find him there. But you shouldn't bring any weapon nor cops with you or else, this guy will die!"
Sally was so horrified that she did what the guy said on the phone. When she arrived at the exact location, she saw Jc tied and full of blood. She's crying while she's removing the rope in his hands. When she's done, she hugged him tightly and ask if he's okay.
Jc whispered on her ears, "Would you be my girl?"
Sally was shocked and pulled him back. "Huh?" She asked again pretending as though she didn't heard it.
"I love you Sally."
Sally grinned and answered back, "I love you even more Jc."
Jc hugged her tight saying, "Yahooo! Yessss! She's my girl!"
Sally laughed. But she was puzzled when she saw the kidnappers surrounding them with flowers.
"w-w-wait! What is this all about? And why the hell are this kidnappers holding? Who are this kidnappers? How come they're not hurting us? Hey hey Jc what's happening?" Sally just can't stop wondering and asking so Jc kissed her lips. Sally's eyes widen in shock. She now understood what's happening. She then closed her eyes.
After a year, they finally get married. Jc decided not to tell his parents about his marriage. He left the company and they left the province. They went to the city. Sally knew why it is his decision so she decided to be innocent about it. She bore a child and named it Marly in memory of her sister Martha.
After 3 years, Sally finally witnessed happiness in her life. With Jc, Jhonny, and Marly, everything is a happily ever after.
One day, Sally noticed that she gets tired easily. She can't even carry her 2 year old daughter, Marly, for 3 minutes. Because of this, she remembered her Father. She never wanted to tell her Mother the reason why her Father died. All her Mother knew is He died because he saved Sally from a truck which is about to bump her. Her Mother didn't knew that her Father wasn't bumped by the truck but it is really his time to say goodbye. Her father has an acute myeloid leukemia and that day is his last day, he took his last breath for saving Sally. By this, she was horrified that maybe her excessive tiredness is one of the symptoms of leukemia. She might inherit it from his father. She decided to schedule a check up to a doctor. The other day, she went to the doctor and had a check up. Sadly, it is positive that she have an acute myeloid leukemia and she inherit it from her father. As day passed by Sally became weaker and weaker. She doesn't want Jc to know it so she kept it.
Sally went back to the doctor.
"Mr.Thompson, can my cancer still be treated?"
"Sorry Mrs.Lee but your cancer is already on its final stage."
Sally went out of the hospital very sad. She look so thin and pale. There are times that Jc notices it but she will just say that it is due to stress.
One night, Sally decided to leave her family. She doesn't want her family to know all about her cancer. She don't want Jc to be upset again. She packed all the things she needed in advance so that she can leave without any struggles. Silently, she went out of the room and left with tears in her eyes. She find it difficult to walk under the strong wind and the heavy rain. She almost decided to go back inside their house, but she insisted. She is about to cross the road when suddenly, a strong headlight shocked her..
Jc mourn hard for his wife's death. He loved her so much.
"Sally gave me the love I have never expected. Because of it, I fell in love even more. She is the best wife on Earth. Everybody will surely love her. I am a lucky fisher for getting a great fish. I love Sally very much."
"My mother Sally is the best Mom I've witnessed. Though she is really not my real Mom, still she portray her role as if she's the real one. No body can compare to her. She is the best forever. I love my Mommy so much."
"My daughter is the best. I know I haven't love her so much but still she show me her love. She never forgets me even though I sent her away of our house. She mailed me money that helped me and her other siblings. I've been a bad Mother to her but I know she'll tell that I am lying. I'm sorry for what I've done Sally. You'll always be in my heart no matter what. I love my daughter more than anyone."
Sally left letters, to everyone whom she loved so much, in a box. Jc found it when they are packing to go back to their province.
Dear Jc,
I'm sorry if I haven't told you about my cancer. I'm just so afraid that I might hurt you. I don't want you to be sad. All I want is for you to be happy. If you're angry, please, don't be. There's are lots of things waiting for you in the future. Don't waste your time being angry and being sad. I know I will always be there, in your heart. I'm so thankful I found you. Thank God that He gave you to me. I am a very lucky girl. Now that you're reading this letter, please, smile for me. C'mon honey, don't cry! Remember what you have said before? You will never cry because you knew that I love you. I'll always love you even here in heaven honey. You, Jhonny, and Marly will always be here in my heart. Thank you for all the great memories. You're the best family I ever had. Honey, don't forget our promise; "No matter what happens, you'll be in my heart ALWAYS". I LOVE YOU JHON CARL LEE. YOU'RE THE BEST FIRST AND LAST GUY I'VE LOVED AND I WILL ALWAYS LOVE. :)
SALLY.
Jc cried so hard when he's done reading the letter he hugged his pillow and cry all day. When they were finally home in their province, he went to Sally's house to gave the letter to Sally's Mom.
When he arrived at Sally house he gave the letter to Sally's Mom. She read the letter aloud so that her two sons can hear it.
Mom,
First of all, I want to say that I love you. I love you no matter what happened to us. I'm sorry If I haven't told you what's the reason why Father died. It is not through the truck that almost bumped me. It is through his leukemia. He doesn't want to say it to you because he doesn't want to make you feel so sad. I came to the point of not telling it to you as well so that you'll not be upset nor angry to Dad. I just take the burden and take the consequences. You hated me I know. But, I hope Mom that you don't hate me now. It has been my wish since then that you'll love me. Well I wish that that wish would come true right now that you're reading this letter. Mommy, I love you so much. You're the best Mommy among them. Don't be sad mommy. I will always be here. I will always love you and my other siblings. Always take care and remember how much I love all of you. :)
SALLY.
Her mom cried, and as well as her siblings, while reading the letter. She cried even harder when she's done reading it. Jc hugged her and they all cried.
30 years later...
Jc is now 80 years old. His son Jhonny already have his own family and as well as Marly. He's now all alone in his big house. While sitting on his favorite chair where He and Sally always sits, his tears flow from his eyes and then he smiled...
Jc died that very day due to his age. He was seen dead sitting in the chair wearing a very beautiful smile.

LIFE IS NOT ALWAYS ABOUT HAPPINESS NOR SADNESS. LIFE IS MYSTERIOUS. NO ONE CAN PREDICT ABOUT IT. THE PERFECT SPICE OF LIFE TO MAKE IT WONDERFUL IS LOVE. LIKE WHAT SALLY ALWAYS HOLDS ON TO HER LIFE. LOVE SURELY CONQUERS ALL.
