Bestfriend

It's halloween today and my bestfriend force me to join in her so called youtube content and shooting to a graveyard is her idea that's why we're here. Before being here she went through focused forcing to change my mind on not coming.

"Please Letacia, Come with me." She pouted. 

"I won't Korbie. I will never go, ever." I said with conviction. Cross my arms over my chest and settled on my seat. 

"But why? This is just for fun!" Beamed by her.

I looked at her in disbelief. 

"Really? For fun? What's fun going into the graveyard, Korbie? Huh?" 

"Well .." She thinks. 

And she really thinks like there is really fun in graveyard. She really is incredible!

"We just gonna visit the nearest and old graveyard just right there. After that, I'll shoot my youtube video with a content of a Halloween because it's halloween and that's it. We are just going to scream and like tell my viewers that we are really afraid." 

"That's absurd! No way in any way I would be that's insane!" Whether I like the idea of going to some graveyard today but I feel lazy and if laziness strike I can't do about it. Kidding.

"That's not absurd!" 

"How do you say?" 

She Mischievously smile that makes me rolled my eyes for over the nth time.

"Don't tell me .. you're afraid?" she said playfully.

"Afraid to what?" 

"Ghost? White Lady? Black Lady? Zombie? Witches? Supernatural creatures?" 

When she finish her questions that's the time I hardly and bulgarly laugh. 

"Seriously? Do you think I will believe that? I would be much afraid with you than those ghost you're talking about. You are the soul that never settled in peace. So please, please stop disturbing me and please go along with the lights." 

She rolled her eyes now that made me laugh harder. 

"Please? If I got my youtube salary I would give you the half of it!" 

I laugh even more harder. She thinks of me now that I just want a money or her salary. 

"No way. I have my own job, stable job. Not like you, you don't have." 

Korbie becomes sad to what I said. I think of what I have wrongly say and that's it. I hit the jackpot! 

I bit my lip when I ask the topic that she don't want to open up. She don't have a stable job because she didn't graduated unlike me that is. She's too sensitive when it comes to that topic and I hate my mouth when I couldn't stop it from talking. 

It's halloween today and if her face will be sad until the end of the day, she will become the real life ghost I don't want to see my whole life.

"Hi my lovely viewers. Now we are going to start your day with a creepy and scary video." Korbie startes as soon as we enter the graveyards gate. 

I hug myself as I feel the creepiness went through my body. The scary vibes is hitting me real hard but like what I have said I am not afraid or I just say it? Dunno. 

"So maybe you haven't seen this places .." 

I look at the side where I saw a shadow in the dark. I wrinkled my forehead. I will never be wrong. I saw shadow! 

This is getting something!

I Look at Korbie again and focus. I join her here so that she wouldn't be sad through out the day. I admit. I wrongly spill the supposed to be joke but in terms of that, stable job will never be a joke for her. She wants it. She wants to prove that whether she didn't graduated she can have her stable and good money from her stable and good work.

We've been bestfriend for almost a years now. I am grateful to that. I treasure her because she treasure me too. 

We weren't sisters by blood but we are sisters by heart, that's why I couldn't stand seeing her sad when I knew I am the reason why her halloweem becomes the real halloween this year. Funny.

"Oh my God!" 

I was shocked when she shout so I went to her and ask if she's okay. She paused the video.

"Just being funny. I mean scary." 

"You stupid!" she laugh. 

"Pease subscribe, like and .."

The shadows move again. That's why I look into it again because of my curiousity. 

Well if I am not afraid to the dead I am afraid to the living. You know. 

I am certain that we aren't just the two of us here. There are someone with us but its a real human. Not supernatural one. 

I ignore it once again. 

I look at Korbie's direction but got surprised when she isn't there! 

"Korbie!" I shout her name. My heart beats loud with an unidetified fear. "Korbie." 

I repeatedly shout her name as I walk through the small church near the graveyards back entrance. 

The graves are unclear because of the limited lights so I double check where I step before continuing. 

"Korbie! Don't play with me, you stupid!" I continued. 

Just when I am the arched entrance of the church I saw nothing. 

I just thought it. 

"Letacia!" I jump out of panic. 

"How dare you!" 

Korbie is there laughing while holding her stomach like it was very funny. 

"Oh my! Y-you look so .. frightened!" she laugh continously!

"Why wouldn't I Korbie! You are missing. I can't see you. How will I know if you're already one of those dead that buries there. Don't play with me you stupid! I am not your playmate!" 

"Sorry Letacia! I just .. went here because I see someone roaming." 

"You what?" 

"I saw someone roaming around." 

"You went here all alone without telling me you saw someone?" 

"Hello. It's not like I went here far away from you. We're just meters away." I close my eyes and open it afterwards.

"Even so .." 

"So my friend is scared now. Well let her be!" 

She went back to her video without hearing my answers. Sometimes I want to slap her head and tell her 'you really the proof of a living stupid woman'.

I waited for her at church arched entrance. She went to the windows, the chairs and so many corners just so she could shoot more. She really funny.

Youtube is her life as of the moment so be it even though that doesn't stable.

I look at the graves near me. My face went so shock when I saw the hands of the dead where they buried slowly showing. I do not believe with zombies or ghost but what I am seeing isn't in movie now. 

I stepped backwards because I feel the urge of running. The head of the dead is now showing too. Almost skeleton. I watch the other graves, lifted by the bodies. They were more and can kill me and Korbie. 

"Korbie. Let's get out of here!" I asked Korbie but she didn't answer that's why I look at her as well, only to find her skeleton and holding her camera! "Ahhhh!" I shouted loudly.

"I will protect you Letacia!" Her skeletoned mouth opened and mouthed those words. 

Whats happening to Korbie! Why is she is skeletoned?! 

"Korbie, where are you going?" 

She walks through the aisle and went outside. She hold the edge of the double door as she smile at me. 

"Korbie. Where are you going? Don't leave!" 

Smoothly by her skeletoned hand, she closed the door between us. I ran towards there but stop when I got hit the door and realize Korbie left me and be with those skeletons.

"Letacia." 

I woke up, sweating bullets because of a nightmare. My body is shaking as I tried to stop my tears from flowing. 

"Is it Korbie again?" My Mom asked with a face that so worried. 

"Mom." My tears flow after saying the word. 

Korbie is my bestfriend. She is my plain youtuber. She wants to graduate. She wants to have stable job. All ended with that accident. 

Its halloween today and right the day she died because of rape. I have never believe that. Her body found in the church stair waiting to be find. I didn't see it right after I enter the church but she was there, naked and abused. I got traumatized to what I saw that I can't talk in a month.

She is already died two days before the halloween, but who is the one I am talking with and asked me to be in the graveyard, none other than the soul of my beloved bestfriend. 

She lead the way to let me find her body. She didn't let me think that she is dead. All she say that being in a graveyard is funny. She was filiming and that's why we caught the culprit.

The same day, the rapist got caught and that is a man. The shadow that has been following us from the entrance until the church. He is in jail now, suffering and should be rot! 

"Are you happy Korbie?" I wipe her grave. Her name. The day of her born and the day she was died are all in there. It indicates that she was really dead.

I cried. 

"All that you said that being in a graveyard is funny! But this is not funny Korbie. You with a grave and got buried is not funny!" 

I almost got choke with my own tears. I waited her to laugh but she didn't. That makes me more sad. 

"I am not afraid that time you lead me Korbie because you're in there. You are strong. My bestfriend."

I am not afraid with the dead, I am more afraid to the people who still living. They have the power to hurt someone while the dead can't and be helpful too. 

"Comeback and fulfill your drems, please."

No one will come back because no one will.
