true story

This is a true story about my older sister when she got desperate to buy a congkak. It is a traditional game which is one of the reasons why she wanted to try it. But "happily", dad really did bought it for her. That time I was very young and fear with old things because of influencing the horror films.She played as soon as we got home from our vacation on holiday. She played almost everyday..

It was past midnight and everyone in the house were asleep except her. She went out to buy some snacks to let her mood on for a horror movie. When she got back from the '7-eleven', she went upstairs to her room when suddenly she heard some noises in the living room. "ktak!..ktak!..ktak!" she was sure it sounded like bunch of marbles released one by one. The sound was very slow that you could barely hear it. And with curious thoughts she took the decision to check the room. She peeked slowly from the staircase. You can see everything from that view. The house was dark but only the dim light that came from the kitchen. Her thought was right. someone was freakin playing the game. She knew it wasn't her mom or dad or brother or me because 'that' thing was wearing a batik cloth on its back. covering its hole body. it looks like a huge boulder from the back but only it had a head.

And so my sister is not stupid to check out and say hi to it. She just ran into my parents room and get to sleep earlier than her usual sleeping time on holiday.

Two days after incident,I knew about my sister keeping snacks so I force myself to stay awake until everyone asleep, just because of stealing those snacks(lol). And so that night, i sneek into the kitchen rummage every cabinets in the place but how could i be so stupid when i realized, who would keep their "personal" things in a place where anyone can fine? it had to be in her room of course! and so i climb upstairs there's the sound. "ktak!..ktak!". i was half way upstairs. means i'm closer to that thing than when where my sister peeked it before. I turn around to look on it. what can i say? my head was full of curiosity espacially at young age right?
I stupidly move closer to it. And a shit thing happened when i was like 1 meter away from it. I stopped walking when its head suddenly fucking turns back at me in just seconds. The moment happenend with a shock. it did nothing but just stare right in to me. i remember when my leg was too heavy to run or even make a sound but instead i move backward slowly. slowly..getting far..and when my feet touches the stair, i didnt turn back away cause i fear if it would suddenly pop out behind me. climbing upstairs with my eyes still on..him? or her? fuck that i don't know. the only thing i was thinkimg is going to my parents room. but finally i did ran into their room when the walls make it lost is sight.

i didnt know what to do but just ran ontop of my mom and lie on her(literally) and she was like,"oh what the hell! oh god! oh god..oh....its you.." and went back to sleep.

And after that day, i got ill for 2 weeks straight. "thank you for that dark creepy terrifying thing. And if you're reading this, i wanna ask you, did you really have to play the congkak in a dark room? i mean there is a light switch dude.."
