I am so exited, Halloween is the best celebration ever, some say Christmas but I say Halloween, all the candy, the treats and the scary costume.
I can't wait a single moment more.
"Chikita? Chikita?" My grandmother called out to me.
"Yes granny." I answered her.
"Come my chikita, it's lunch time."
I love my grandma more than anyone in this world even more than I love my dad and even he knows that.
My grandma is the apple of my eye there is nothing she won't do to make me happy, she is just the best.
"What is for lunch granny?" I asked her.
"My famous scream berry apple pie, your favourite." My granny told me.
"That is why I love you granny." I told her.
"This is 4pm, you can't call it lunch any more." My mom told us.
"Fine, come and have some of my famous scream berry apple pie." My granny told me and I giggled.
"Its sad you love her more than you love your amazing dad." My dad complained.
"But you still know I love you, you are my Superman."
"Thank you sweetheart."
You must be wondering why my granny is calling me chikita, my granny loves to call me that because she think its cute but I do not like the name, chikita means small, and I am not small I am and tall but whatever makes my granny happy, if she want to call me chikita I do not mind one bit.
"Hurry with your pie so you can get started on your costume, Halloween is the day after tomorrow." My mom told me.
"No one ever rushes Granny's famous scream berry apple pie." I told her.
The apple pie does not actually scream, my granny and I just call it that.
"So what do you want your costume to be?" My dad asked.
"I want to be a dead bride."
"Ooh, so scary." He told me and I smiled.
"Don't worry Meadow, we will get you the scariest dead bride costume ever." My mom told me."
"Okay mom, I am done with scream pie, I really want to go to the park now."
"I will take you chikita, my dad told me."
"Only granny is allowed to call me that."
"Okay, my sweet Meadow." He corrected himself.
"That's much better." I said with a smile.
"Come on let's go." And with that we went to the park.
When we got to the park it was closed.
"Why is the park closed.?" I asked my dad.
"I do not know sweetheart it is never closed, let's go back home."
"No, I want to go to the park." I told him.
"Okay Darling there is another park in the other side of town let us go home and get the car."
"Okay, I replied him."
"Why are you back so soon, did you not just leave?" My granny asked.
"The park is closed so we want to take the car to the other side of town." I told her.
"Why? My mom asked.
This time my dad answered.
"There is another park there, we will go there."
"Why do you not just go next time?" My mom asked.
"Because I want to go now, I want to go now,now,now!!!!"
You must think I am a spoilt little brat, but I am not its just, I have my moments.
"Okay dear, you both should be back before dinner." My mom told us.
I grabbed the car keys and both my dad and I went to the garage and zoom zoom zoom, we were off to the other side of town.
We drove for about an hour with no sign of the park.
"Dad have you ever been to the park before? You know, the one that is in the other side of town." I asked him.
"No!"
"Whattt!!!" I exclaimed.
"Why did you not just say so? Now we are lost." I moaned.
"No we are not lost,do not worry we will go to the park, its just 5:35pm now." He told me.
"Okay." I signed.
I spotted a sign that said "do not pass here after sunset".
"Dad, look at what that sign says, I think we should go back home."
"Don't worry, its just a sign board." My dad assured me.
We drove for another 20 minutes.
We saw a man standing ahead of us next to his bike, we moved closer with our car and my dad wind down the car window.
"Do not go further, this road is hunted, turn back around!!!." He told us.
The man looked scary.
He started hitting the car window when we did not turn back.
Quickly my dad sped past him.
"What was that all about?"
"Maybe he is a mad man its nothing."
After 15 more minutes, I got agitated.
"Dad? Yurn around, I do not want to go to the park anymore please, I want to go back home, please."
"Yes sweetheart I agree, we are going back home now."
We drove for about another hour.
"Dad, its already 7pm, I thought you said we were going back home."
"Yes sweetheart, it seems we are lost!, I am so sorry sweetheart." My dad told me.
We drove for about an hour and thirty minutes more, I then became restless but I noticed something.
"Dad I do not think we are lost."
"What do you mean sweetheart?"
"I think we are moving in circles."
"That is not possible, what made you say that?"
"That milestone, we have been passing it by each time."
"Maybe the milestone is everywhere."
We drove a little more.
"Dad stop!"
"What is it now?" He asked.
"I want to get my marker at the back seat."
"What for?"
I got out of the car ignoring his question and I marked the milestone "A."
I quickly got back into the car after I marked it.
"Now we will find out if we are going in circles again."
"We drove off just to see the milestone again."
Just the we saw a woman standing on the road, she turned around and she looked distorted and beaten, she looked dead.
We stopped next to her and my dad wind down the car window.
"Good evening." My dad greeted.
She lowered her neck so she could see us. She immediately stuck her hand into the car and started pulling on my arm vigorously, like she wanted to rip it off.
Haa haa haa, I released a ear piercing,
she opened her mouth and her teeth was black and her tongue was crimson red.
How is that possible? I kept on screaming as my dad tried to release my hand from the woman's, he tried but to no avail.
He started the car again and drove off, and like that my hand was freed and the woman gone.
"Its okay sweetheart." My dad tried to comfort me.
"Dad I am scared please take me home, I want to go back home, please take me home, I beg you please."
"I will get us home, okay? Don't worry I am here for you."
Just then the car stopped moving.
"What is wrong with the car now?." I asked scared.
"I will only know if I go check it." He told me.
"No, please do not leave me."
"I just want to check what is wrong with the car, I am not going any where."
*Knock*knock.* I heard a knock on my window, I turned around slowly to see who it is and my dad wind down the car window, he really should stop doing that.
