"Is this yours" the voice that belonged to my sister said to me
Huh
Didn't I just die
I felt around my neck and there was no sticky blood
There also wasn't any injury on my shoulder
But how
And wasn't I just on the floor right now
But now I'm standing here infront of my sister
The sister that ran out and abandoned me
"Are you ignoring me" my sister said
"Huh" what is she talking about
"I'm sorry" I apologized first even though I didn't understand what's going on
" Then answer the question" my sister said
"Sorry can you repeat the question" I said
"Is this yours" my sister dangled the hairpin infront of me
Wait haven't I heard that before
Before I was attacked; we were talking about the hairpin
Then after resolving the issue
The stall opened and then that student came out
Stall.. isn't it the one I'm standing infront of right now
I froze and turned to the occupied stall infront of me
The stall that houses a monster, the same monster that killed me last time
I was trembling with my hands over my mouth to block the scream that seemed like it was about to erupt
"What's wrong with you" my sister said to me not out of care but a voice filled with annoyance
Like why has this stupid girl gone crazy
"Mmmonster" I stuttered through choked sobs while gazing at the stall
" Have you finally gone crazy, why would there be a monster at school"
"Or do you think you can scare me into giving you back the hairpin" my sister didn't believe me
But it was to be expected
Would you honestly believe that monsters exist
Plus someone as weak as me who has also been bullied a lot lacks credibility
"No..no it's true" I tried to get her to believe me
"Really then how do you know that it's a monster in there"
"It's not we saw anyone or anything come in"
"Plus she looks like a normal student to me " my sister said this as she came to examine the stall
"I saw it" I said
"When" my sister asked
"That...that" I wanted to say just a moment ago
But technically it happened in this bathroom right now
Well not right now but a few minutes or seconds after this
So it hasn't happened yet
Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.
Then I can't say that it will happen
That sounds like clairvoyance; seeing the future
Honestly the idea of me having superpowers is harder to believe than saying there are monsters
" You obviously have finally gone crazy, there's no other explanation" my sister said
Have I really gone crazy
Or did I go back in time
Honestly go back in time, that's kinda ridiculous right
Yeah I must be hallucinating from being overworked and exhausted all the time
Maybe I should take a day off and recuperate
"I guess you're right" I said attempting to put the idea out of my head
"Hmm but this joke of yours isn't very scary" my sister seemed to resent me for trying to scare her
I seem to remember her saying something like this in my vision
So I went to the bucket of dirty mop water and poured it on my body
Even if the vision was just a symptom of stress, it did provide me some insight
I already know that I'm not going to get the hairpin back
So what's the point of arguing
Once again, someone slipped outside but this time I realized that there were a lot of people in the hallway
I hadn't noticed that because I was too absorbed in trying to get the hairpin
" Well hurry to class" my sister said
It's not any of my business why the school is so active before the first period
I went to the sink and began to squeeze the water out of my blazer
The room fell into silence except the footsteps from outside and my sister's fingers pressing her phone screen
Then a loud noise interrupted this silence
It was the sound of the stall door opening and that animalistic growl
I froze was again and used the bathroom mirror to look behind me
Just like in my vision; the student turned to my sister who was the closest and attacked her
And everything in my vision repeated itself
My sister pushed me to the monster and I died
.................
"Is this yours" my sister voice said
It was like blinking and the next thing is that I'm standing infront of that stall
I hurriedly felt around my shoulder and once again there was no blood
It's impossible that I would hallucinate the same thing twice
That must mean that it's real and in the stall infront of me lies a monster
I trembled and stumbled back from the stall
"What's wrong with you" my sister's voice was once again mocking me with this question
"There's a monster in there" I said pointing at the stall
" Oh, how does it look like" mocking tone
"It looks like a student but she has black spots all over her body and her eyes are bloodshot" I described the monster to her
" I don't believe you" my sister said
"I'm really saying the truth" I said this desperately
"Then prove it" my sister had her hands crossed as she said this to me
"Huh..me" I was beginning to panick at the thought of going close to that monster
"You said there's a monster inside now go and check" my sister even knocked on the stall door just to make sure the person inside was awake
I looked at her in horror and my head turned from side to side in refusal while my legs felt weak at the idea of it
"I thought you were sure there's a monster inside"
"You weren't lying now were you" my sister sounded disappointed
But I still didn't dare to get close to the stall
Instead I went to the bucket with shaky feet and dumped its content on myself
"I'm sorry" I apologized
"Tsk whatever" she let it go
I sighed in relief and tried to think of a way out of this
I moved away from the stall and told my sister that maybe we should leave
"Why, is it because of the monster" my sister teased me
But I still tried to get her to leave with me when the stall door opened
This time it lunged straight at me who was standing infront of my sister
Once again I was dead
...............
"Is this yours" my sister's voice was back once again
I almost screamed but my hand covered my mouth to cover it up
I was in tears at this time and my gaze was focused on the stall
"What's wrong with you" my sister's voice brought me back
"We..we need to leave" I said stuttering because my teeth was also chattering in fear
"Have you finally gone crazy" my sister said
"Please just trust me" I was practically begging
"Why do you want me to leave so bad" my sister sounded curious
But I just kept repeating that we should leave
"Does it have to do with this stall"y sister moved closer to the stall and examined it
"No.. don't get too close" I said this while trembling
"Why" my sister questioned
" Because it's dangerous" I can't say there's a monster inside
"Look the hairpin is yours, everything is yours so can we please just leave" I said
"Hmm but I'm still curious" she said
I didn't know what to do and thought about the bucket
My sister enjoys it when I'm uncomfortable
So I poured the dirty water on my body to appease her
"Haha it's always so funny when you're in an embarrassing situation" as expected she laughed at me and
I smiled at her with a strained movement of the mouth
Then I still took some time to convince her
She finally agreed but it was too late as the monster pounced once again
...............
"Is this yours" once again my sister's voice said this to me
I screamed but my hand muffled it as soon as it came out
"Are you actually crazy now" my sister said staring at me like I was.a freak
"We need to go" I said this words scared
"Why should I" my sister said
"Please....please.. please" I was begging at this point choking on my sobs
My sister looked at me disgusted and tried to open the stall door
Out of fear; I grabbed her hand to stop it but the next thing that happened was a slap landing on my cheek
"How dare you touch me" my sister sounded angry
My mind went blank at the stinging sensation of my cheek
"I'm sorry" I said this reflexively
My sister glared at me and told me to dump the water on myself
I was relieved that she didn't open the stall but was waiting for me to complete my punishment
After that, I told her we should go immediately and she agreed
But the same thing happened; the monster lunged at me who was behind my sister
I died
.............
"Is this yours" my sister's voice
That same sentence
This time, I did scream
