In this world, "we do not know whether we will live much longer or die sooner". I am a high school student who lives in my grandparents' house, My parents died when I was younger. Grandma told me how my parents died on the same day I was lived. They were killed by creatures I had not seen since I was a child.

Since then, I have believed that creatures we do not see are real. Wherein; I know my life is connected to them. I know creatures are watching over me. I know they are here to watch my actions, but why? What is the reason for this? I'd like to know why my parents were murdered and why they've been watching me for over a year. But- I'm terrified—I'm afraid of finding out anything about them. What if they attack me like they did my parents? I was also afraid of harming my grandparents.

"Hendrix!, wake up. That clock was already ringing, won't you turn it off yet?" "Hendrix!" I just woke up to the noise of my grandmother and the clock. I got up and turned off the clock while concurrently going to the bathroom. after I went to the bathroom, I went out and at the same time went to the dining room. There my grandparents had breakfast while playing the radio. I joined them to eat breakfast, I ate fast because I am late for my school again.

While I am eating fast my grandpa said he was going to take me to school and I thumbs up to him. I kiss my grandma's cheek and left her in the house and directly go to school. "Hendrix, I know you want to attend a popular school in the city, but we don't have enough money to go to your desired school in the city. I hope you understand why we are unable to provide your preferred school with sufficient funding." Grandpa said that to me while we are walking across to the school. I understand what he said to me, I know we don't have much money to provide for my needs but it's okay for me because the school helps me with my needs.

I respond with a big smile to my grandpa. He was a meticulous, diligent, and attractive grandfather who often reminded me that we, too, would be affluent one day.

When we came to the gate of the school, I wave my hand to him saying goodbye but he called me again. So, I turned around and saw where he was standing. I see in his eyes that something bothering him. I know he wants to say what's on his mind but- "Nothing, take care always Hendrix". That was what he said and he give me a big smile after he left me standing at the gate. Something odd on what he acts a while ago, it makes me feel that there is in his mind he wants to say- I want to know it but I can't ask him.

I just ignored what my mind thinking about Granpa and go straight to my room. When I open the door, my teacher in my first subject is not yet there so, I immediately across my chair and sit. There are a few of my classmates playing outside the classroom and the others are talking to each other. I am not a sociable or talkative person especially here in this room but there is one person who always annoys me when I'm in my chair but he is not yet here. I guess he's going to be late now.

A few minutes passed and here was my teacher for the first subject but there is no Andre that always messes me. A few hours passed, my teacher was finished with her discussion but I can't focus on what she discussed. I was thinking about why Andre did not enter the school now, but also why I am concern about him. He always messes with me, also asking me if we can be friends but I act like there is no talking to me. Is he mad at me? that's why he did not show up now or he doesn't want to see me, I guess? but why he doesn't want it?

Those are the ones in my brain right now. I feel like I'm going crazy thinking why he didn't come in today. Maybe tomorrow he will show up. So, much discussion this day. It was four o'clock when we finished school. I was with the cleaners today so, I stay. I erased what was written on the board and the others swept and separated the perishable and non-perishable.

After I erase what is on the board, I clean also the windows. While I am cleaning the windows. I feel like there is one hiding in the tree and watching me. I know it's a non-sense feeling but I know there was something there. I stop cleaning the windows and I stay standing in front of the windows. A few minutes passed, My eyes widened when there is an eye I see at the top of the tree.

I back away when our eyes met. The thing suddenly disappeared. I looked for where that thing went down but I saw nothing go down the tree. I left the room and ran to the tree part of what I saw. But when I looked at the top of the tree the thing was no longer there. I knew that thing was still here, I still feel that thing but far away. 357Please respect copyright.PENANAKLZyi4DHPW
I just went back to the room and my other cleaning companions were surprised when I arrived. They asked me why I ran towards the tree, but I said-"I thought a cat is falling so, I immediately ran towards the tree."

Then they nodded at me. When we finished cleaning the room, we left the room. I walk on the aisle across to the main gate of the school. My grandpa gave me money so, I just tricycle home. I was taking the money out of the small pocket of my bag with the paper hidden there. I opened the paper and looked to see if there was anything written there but my eyes widened at what I had read.
