It happen last year in the middle of march. I suggested to my friends that we all go for an adventure. Sure enough, all my friends agreed. We decided that we will all go on Friday night.
Soon the day came. My friends were waiting for me at the cafe where I’m working. As i am the manager in charge that day, it is not a problem letting in all my friends. I knock off at 12mn. By then i was waiting for my cousin who was i really close to. When he come, we were all ready to go to the place where we had planned, the little guilin.(for your information, it is located at bukit gombak.)
When we reached there, a lot of couples were looking at us but we act as nothing happen. We went through in a path which link to the place where we wanted to go.(there is a stairs that let to the forest that is way up the hill.) Arm with torchlight and candle, we brave ourselves.(mind you it is midnight, and i am the only gal) as we were on the hill, we remind ourselves that we will called ourselves in number instead of our names. It will be a lot of fun because if we go through this forest it will exit to Hill View.
But strange things started to happen. My cousin keep saying that there is “someone” following all of us. He said that he could hear a footsteps behind him. He was the last one and i was second last. Indeed this is true enough. But i just keep quiet as i think that it might be my imagination. Later the torch that my cousin hold just blacken. At that time, he say that he saw something above him. But everybody did not believe him.
When we were up there, it seems like eternity. It such a long, long way to reach the end. We came to a place which is a puzzle to everyone until today. There is a resting place that look so beauty. While we were resting, we all smell something. It was a frangipani smell and it was so strong. My cousin say that the “thing” was there. Without much thinking, all of us quickly ran. As it was dark, we were seaching for the way out.
When we reach to the end, there is two path. Either to the right or the left. One wrong move and it is a dead end to us. All of us agreed to go to the left. True enough, we were out. When we were all out of the forest, my cousin keep looking back and say that the “thing” is following us. All of us does not believe him as we were all happy that we were out. But something did happen to him.
For the next two weeks, he couldn’t sleep, eat well. He has lost a lot of weight. My auntie was dead worried about him. She ask me what had happen as he become like this after that Friday night. And my cousin keep saying “pergi pergi”, to something that all of us could not see. I had to tell the true to everyone. I was scolded and my cousin was treated to a bomoh.
I do know what the bomoh had said to my auntie but i was reminded not to go in that place anymore. My cousin was now was perfectly alright. I was glad. Well…….it up to you guys to believe or not. But you guys could went to the place where i had told you for your next destination.
