------------------------

I glanced at my watch, 4:43pm. The school bell would ring in less than 2 minutes.

I closed by books and peeped at the window! The sky was clear. The tress appeared to dance in the breeze. My hair flipped as the breeze entered the classroom through the window like a storm. I closed my eyes to feel it.
I am a joyful breeze entering a room.

My mother's face displayed in my mind. I missed her every single day. I never spent much time with her, that's because my dad never wanted me to be around her, he said it's harm for me. But little does I know is, she cared me more than anyone in that little time gap. Whenever I looked into her eyes, I felt the different spark. Eventually she died from cancer. That's what my dad actually said for everyone, including me. Sometimes it bothered me from lacking the mother's love and care.

The bell rang and suddenly I snapped out of my reverie. I grabbed my books and exited the class. I found Liam and Vic approaching my way. "Hey" Liam raised his hand.

"How was your day?" Vic asked me as I joined along them towards our lockers.

"Actually had very long day! Anyway never mind. Hey, Liam do you have any plans after school?"

"Yeah! I actually planned to visit the forest, which is miles away from the main streets. Hayley always keep bugging me every time to go there, I don't understand what's new there!"

"Wow, that's interesting!! I'm really dead on my foot and I need a break from this school stuffs. I'd join along with you guys rather than doing my stupid assignments." I rolled my eyes.

"Why not? You can join us. I'm no longer ready to hear the boring Fairy Tales from Hayley all long way to forest. We can have fun there."

"What kind of fun can you have in that creepy forest?" Vic ask glancing at her phone.

"HIDE AND SEEK"

"Count me in" I said to Liam with excitement. What's better than playing hide and seek in the creepy places. I'm always into it.

"Wow! I'm down to it" Vic squealed. We are sometimes same type just like twins.

"I'm damn sure that Joe, Caroline and Hermoine will join us" Liam chuckled to himself, as if it was an extremely funny joke.

"What's the matter with Flynn?" Vic pointed out.

"Since after my birthday, he got a call from his father that, Flynn's mother is sick and he has to fly back to London. Maybe he'll be back a week after. But I'm missing his presence" I lowered my voice.

"Awww, we miss him either, don't worry Tes, he'll be back soon. Last night he texted me that he's missing you every sec since he moved to London."

"Can't wait to see him. Anyway, catchya guys later, I gotta go and rest until I make up to forest. Make sure to inform everyone in the group about the game" I turn around, and make my way to my house which is in the next block of main streets. I almost always make my trek alone, when Flynn is not around me.

We all gathered in the forest. Joe have come along his friends Ethan and Jace. I joined along the Liam, Hayley, Caroline, Vic and Hermoine. The place almost looked freaking gorgeous!! I mean yeah literally creepy as hell.

The sun has almost ran into it's house!
The woods around us had occupied it's place and looked like claws waiting to tear at us. The fog was everywhere like a breath.

The air was stuffy and musty which was difficult to breathe. The forest looked old and something in my mind sensed like something's wrong about this place.

The smoke air and the dark atmosphere provided the perfect abode for those who worshipped the darkness rather than light. In this dark shadows, insects built their own empire and wandering with cracking sounds in their enclave. The spiders stretched their snare strings. Their webs shimmered like meshed steel dipped in silver.

"Guess like this can be my last day on earth" Vic cried scanning the surrounding.

"Listen, little pumpkin, maybe you'd be better off spending rest of your life with your dumbass boyfriend instead of being killed by a demon." Joe whispered into her ears with a smirk on his face.

"Dumbass boyfriend?" She said, mock offended. "Don't dare to call him that. By the way, I don't wanna end my life here, in this hell, at this age and especially with you guys" Vic smiled a sickly sweet smile that was practically dripping with fakery.

Joe was about to come back at her, but his phone interrupted, before he could say something, Vic grabbed his phone and stuck her tongue out at him playfully. "Hello? The number you dialed is out of station and the person is out of service!" Vic chuckled and hung the call.

"Why bother? You're soul will be out of service by the end of the game, watch out!" Joe' speech drifted off as Vic's face displayed a shocked expression.

"Just tell me that, you didn't mean!" Hayley, Liam's 7 year younger sister, pouted, widening her deep blue eyes into cute puppy dog style that made it almost impossible to refuse.

"You don't worry darling! You'll see it by the end of the game." Joe winked at Hayley.

We marched to the centre of forest and we started to gather the woods to fire in the middle, so that it can be the spot where the person can come once he/she'll be found in the game hide and seek.

The trees looked centuries old. Their bark was splotched, as if bobbled soup had been frozen in time on it's surface. This was the perfect place I was looking for. And yeah finally here it is.

We set the fire and looked at each other's face with a proud smile, as if we did something great! Aha, it's time to get into the game!!

"I hope you all ready to hop into the game?" I asked looking down at the firework!

"What are you all waiting for? Let's start the game. On my twentieth count, be ready in your hiding spots" Ethan smiled, showing off his perfect white teeth and his dazzling green eyes focused on everyone's excited face.

Everyone rushed into different directions without bothering to discuss, as Ethan started his count.

One, two, three..........
