I walked passed my classroom door having to realize that someone was behind me. There were no footsteps but I can feel its presence. It wailed a soft cry that cannot escaped my ears. I did not want to endanger my friends so I went straight ahead and tried moving as if I was heading somewhere. Without any precaution, I realized that I went towards the school rooftop.

I thought to myself that this was the chance to end it all. I left my bag on my way there. Then before I knew something was about to happen, I went over the steel fence and looked down for the last time. I felt the wind flowing faster, calling me to leap forward. I closed my eyes and headed towards the ground.

When I woke up, there was nothing that I could feel anymore. The only thing that I knew that can move was my left eye…

Over my long sleep, I discovered that it was Death that hunted me. She tempted me to walk away life from that moment. She enticed me with its stunningly inquisitive voice, singing for me, just for me. With a melody I had heard before, telling me to depart from this world immediately. Never had I listened to such a familiar song till my heart was content.

Later, I noticed that I was in the black room I dreamt the other day. Same as before, it had nothing but a table and a photograph, but now, the door I went in last time had disappeared. I discerned that it’s because I can never go out anymore and no one can see me again. I was now one with peace but, there was something that I can’t ignore. A sound came somewhere far away from the place I was standing. However, from what I can make out, every note I heard was getting louder and louder every moment. Maybe it was another song Death was offering me. I had not explored the vast black quarter so I have no idea where’d I go if I headed towards the sound. I settled on running forward and turned my back once to look how far I had already gone. I was shocked to see that the table stood right behind me, like I was running in circles but had not manage to see the table right in front of me before I passed it.

I attempted not to be disturbed from what I had just experienced; hence, I focused on the echoes of melody I heard. It sounded different from what I heard before I came here. This song gave me a more expressive feeling. I decided to look for it deeper from where ever it came from even if I knew that I was in no where.

After a few moments, I started to think that there was already no hope when suddenly I heeded that the song came to an end.
