After 3 years of hard work, Ana managed to raise her money to buy her own dream house. She no longer needs to rent and has to be patience to face her old neighbor who always pick on her every time she sees her. Ana breath a sigh of relief. A burst of joy swelled up in her heart.A big smile appear on her face.
That evening, Ana rarely took a time off. She wants to see the house suggested by the real estate agent she hired.She has already described the features of the house that she likes. The house should be in an area that does not have many people. Ana likes a peaceful and quiet home. She didn't want to be disturbed by uncivilized neighbors like her rented house.
"This is the only house that is according to your wishes we had so far. The owner of this house is an old man who lost his wife who had committed suicide due to depression after giving birth to their son. Now, his husband has follows and lives with his son in the city where his son works in. Due to a case of death, the price of this house is lowered but looking at this condition, the repair cost must be high considering that this house has not been occupied for a long time. What do you say?"
Ana looked at the house in front of her as she frowned in thought. After a while she said,"I don't care about the repair costs. Although the house is old, the atmosphere here is quiet and the outside view is also quite to my liking. Tell the owner that I want this house". The agent nodded.
Before leaving the house, the wind suddenly came in. Ana shivered 'It's strange, the news said it's hot today. Why does it felt like it's just want to rain' Ana thought. Ana looked back to see the house for the last time. A black shadow suddenly appear and seemed to be standing at the window watching her leaving. Ana gasped and blinked her eyes and the shadow disappeared like it never be there.
That night, the strangeness of the house during the day made Ana very unhappy. She was sure that she had seen the shadow in the house. She thought about it until midnight and hesitated again and again to buy that house considering her own safety. Ana's eyes got heavier and heavier as she slowly to fall into deep sleep. Before closing her eyes, she determined to ask the agent if there was other house in their list even if she has to wait a little longer.
***********
Ana opened her eyes. In front of her was the outdoor area of the house she had seen not too long ago. Ana started to feel bad. The outdoor area of the house that is scattered and full of grass makes Ana tremble.
'Why am I here?'Ana wondered in her heart. The cold wind made Ana shiver. Ana touched the gate of the house as support to stand. A door that should be locked is open. The movement of the door caused Ana to fall forward. Just as she was about to get up, the gate closed by itself. Maybe because of the wind but now Ana doesn't want to think about anything. She was determined to get out of here
Ana wants to turn back. As soon as she turned around, her surroundings changed. She was now in the living room. Ana started to panic. Her fur started to tingle. Ana is pale. She steadied herself up and began to find a way out.
Suddenly, a shadow passed in front of her like the wind. Despite the speed, Ana could still see it. Ana felt she was being watched. Ana is panicking. Her steps quickened the same as her ran. Her heartbeat can be heard in Ana's ears. Ana felt the door in front of her getting farther and farther away from her. Ana is getting more and more desperate. The screams and rough laughing that she started hearing made Ana run even faster.
Ana felt her left hand being gripped. Ana's heart stopped beating for a moment. Ana didn't want to see what was holding her up. Ana trembled. The strong grip made Ana almost went on despair. Ana could see from her side eyes that the hand holding her was full of maggots. Ana can also see bones that are almost gone, blood that doesn't stop dripping and long hair that reaches the floor. Ana is pale. The brilliant laughter don't stop as it like Ana's actions and laugh at her who is desperate to escape. The woman's shadow seemed to say that Ana could not escape. Her actions are in vain.
Maybe the shadow of the woman was not satisfied with Ana reaction and wants to see Ana to get more desperate. It loosen out its hand. Released Ana to continue running away.
Ana ran away with all her heart. She was accompanied by the creepy laugh of the shadow. Ana bumped into a chair because she was too panicked to see. Ana fell. Her knees hit the floor. Ana is desperate. The woman's screams became more and more uncontrollable. Ana tried to get up but failed. She felt her body getting cold and frozen. When Ana was about to pass out, she heard the voice of the woman's shadow "DON'T YOU COME HERE AGAIN. THIS IS MY HOME. IF YOU COME AGAIN I WILL MAKE SURE YOU WILL NOT LEAVE HERE FOREVER!!!REMEMBER,THIS IS JUST A WARNING" After that all Ana saw was darkness.
***********
Ana woke up from her sleep panting heavily. She was sweating and her heart was pounding. She repeated what happened in her mind again and again 'Is this a warning and a sign to me. Maybe the woman's shadow is the dead wife of the owner of the house that commit suicide because of depression that the agent tell me.'
The next day, Ana called the real estate agent to cancel the purchase of the house and find another house for her. Although the agent was confused, he still carried out his duties without much question.Ana breath a sigh of relief.
