I just finished high school , So this day me and my friends went home in my hometown to visit my Grandmother's house

When I got out of the car, I looked at Grandma's huge house which is one of the places where majority of my happy memories are. Grandma's house is large and ancient, yet it is still a sight to behold, full of lovely flowers. "Hello Aunty Joy," my Aunt Joy rushed out to greet us.

"Oh my! Quira why didn't you tell me you guys are coming to visit, you should always inform whenever you're coming so I could prepare something for you guys, you girls must be hungry come and eat "

" Thank you Aunt but we already ate a lot while traveling"

" Nonsense come and eat more ...Quira,Mila,Jovy,Gen, Islyn,... you guys have grown so much and even became more beautiful ...I miss you guys come girls give me a hug" Her warm welcome and hug made me calmer

" Grabe naman si tita o ,we've only been away for 2 years how come you say that ,it's you who became more beautiful ,it's like you didn't aged a bit " Islyn said with a laugh

" I agree ,Aunt didn't even aged " Gen also laughed

" Stop it (laugh) ...come inside and have some rest come inside and I will prepare some juice"Aunt said with a smile

Seating down in the couch and looking around, many memories of grandma flashed to me , I thought I will cry while thinking of those memories but I pulled myself together because Aunty is coming.Thinking of Aunty she once experienced sleeping in the street but because of Grandmother, grandma took her in and now she is the only one living here,Aunt said Grandmother is the only one she considers a parent .But now it's so sad that grandmother is gone. Aunt sat down with the mixed Juice.

"so how long are you gonna stay here?" Aunt said

"Aunt we already finished Senior high school,So we are staying here for a while" I said

" Is that so I'm so grateful ,I now have companions in this big house"

Mila takes out a box from her fancy bag

"Aunty this is for you from all of us"

"What is this "Aunt said with a curious face

Aunt Joy opened the box and a simple design of a butterfly necklace made from gold Ang diamond shine

"Since you love Flower so much we would like to give you this gift"Jovy said with a soft voice

" Also I remember tita (Tita is Tagalog of Aunt)

today is also your birthday" excitedly said by Islyn

" What do you mean it's my birthday?!...and ...and this is so expensive I cannot take it!" Aunt said

We were dumbfounded by what my aunt said, She didn't know it was her birthday today ?, we were silenced for a few seconds

"Ah" she said with a sad face , looking to her eyes she suddenly remembered something

"Because Aunty (Grandmother) and you are the only ones who surprised me every time when it's my birthday, I can easily forget things and ...besides you guys only came now so I forgot it's my birthday today " Aunt Joy said sadly with a soft laugh

she closed the box and said "ok I will cook something to eat for lunch "she awkwardly said with a smile while going in the kitchen.

We finished eating so I went up to Grandma's old room and I saw a black strange box standing out of all the other boxes beside it, out of curiosity I opened It slowly and I saw a necklace lingling-o . isn't this what the ifugao or Igorots wear in ancient times pop out of my mind, so I put it on and looked at It for a while, I looked out in the window with the beautiful sunlight.

A few seconds later a butterfly came in and I stared at It as it approached me and landed on my hand,

The wings are as beautiful as glittering gold

I stared at It for a few minutes and it was as if I heard someone call my name over and over and in a moment someone actually called me.

"Quira come down for a sec!" Islyn shouted downstairs

" coming!" I responded

I looked again in my hand and the buttery is gone so

I went downstairs and found Islyn ,Mila and Jovy sitting on the couch

"Let's go camping ?" Mila said

"You go first ask Aunt's permission"

"Ok" Islyn said

while Mila and islyn is going in the kitchen

"Islyn did you somewhat called my name five times a second ago?" I asked

" I think I called your name for just two times...why?"Islyn said

" it's nothing" I said , thinking of what Islyn said ,I am so confused why my name is called for so many times,but I just brush it off out of my mind and sat down at the couch

"What time is it now?" Jovy suddenly asked while watching in her cellphone with headphone in her head

"It's 1:00 ,you should take a bath already you stinks"

"what did you say?" Jovy said while removing her headphone

" It's 1:00"I repeatedly said

"ok..ok" she said again while putting her headphones

while I saw Islyn and Mila went to the kitchen i suddenly saw again the butterfly coming towards me.

''Did you know the butterfly in Philippine Myths, Filipino culture has many superstitious beliefs or pamahiin and among the most enduring of these is the belief that a butterfly is a sign of a dead relative making their presence felt" Jovy said while staring at her cellphones with a loud music on her headphones

While she was reading what is on her cellphone, I slowly followed The butterfly that is like someone is controlling me ,while I heard someone talking again.

"All right come come come close to the water come come and touch the necklace" slowly said the voice

I obeyed what the voice said, I approached the swimming pool while holding The necklace ,while I was close to holding The butterfly I suddenly fell into the water and suddenly a little diamonds shone in the side of the swimming pool and The necklace I am holding on the left also shined .During my time under the water I have difficulty breathing as I try to swim upwards

"wait isn't this pool only 6ft why is it so deep " I said to my mind

I am trying to swim upward but something is pulling me down I tried to scream for help but no one is coming,until I lose breathing and consciousness

///

The diamond in the pool stopped shining and the water in the pool went back to it's original state,The pools water went back to being steady

while inside the house Jovy is busy playing with her cellphone and Geny just came out of the bathroom drying her hair with the towel

"hey Jovy it's your turn to take a bath you stinks" Geny said with a laugh

" ok ok "Jovy said

while jovy is going in the bathroom Geny asked if she saw Quira

"I thought she went there...hmm?...I saw she went there a minutes ago ,I think she went in the kitchen with Mila and Islyn" Jovy said.

Authors Note:

I know there are mistakes sometimes in my story. Grammatical error or the spelling ,I am just practicing and improving my English , But really I just want to share this story that's been in my head for so long , this story is based on my imagination hope you guys like it

Waking up in the middle of Nowhere would surely be someone's Nightmare

But me who Just waked up stayed calm but a little bit scared that it is so dark and quiet.

Trees are so big and high that you cannot see the sky

It's so very lonely being alone what if I see someone frown

"Ugh what a Scary dramatic poem I don't even know if it's a right poem , isn't it cold if you're in the middle of nowhere and dark why is it that I feel warm ... hmm? confusing

Talking to my self is so crazy while walking like this... surely my surviving skills is very useful at this situation...But where the heck are those people?!... I guess this is just a prank... so stay calm...I think this is not the right place where my friends taught me to camp also I don't have my things?... hmm? really confusing isn't it?... I don't remember anythi-... Oh my! I... I... I... followed the butterfly and fell in the pool and i wake up here"

I looked around and came to my right senses that i remembered the whole thing that happened to me I started to became nervous and scared that for the whole time I thought that it's just a nonsense prank from my friends , they are not that kind of people to just leave a friend behind , i again asked my self that where the heck am i ?! ,I remembered one of the things you do if you are lost in the middle of the woods, I gathered all the things for survival and to build a shelter, I waited for a day that they would find me but no one came.

I am losing hope that someone would find me, I cried for so long that what if someone will kill me,I cried and think for the whole hour the only thing that came to my mind is what if you follow the river hoping you can find a house near the river houses sometimes live in near a river to have a source of water . I reconsidered my plan if it's a right thing to do , but I think it's a dumb idea.

for not thinking too much I gathered my strength and fallowed the river hoping to find someone that could help me.

"I'm so tired already I really want to be home , I missed my Aunt's cooking . will this how my life ends dying as an NBSB " I shouted while crying inside

" In the middle of this kind of situation that what you are thinking are you stupid Quira !!! are you stupid!? "said my inner voice

" what do you want me to do always walking like this I can't even hear or see someone , I am loosing hope" I said while crying

" You are really so unlucky... Quira look at yourself , pull your self together " said the unfamiliar voice

" so now inner voice I can really hear you ". realizing I really hear a voice ,I turned around and saw someone leaning in the big tree , I am really surprised that I shouted loudly and fell down.

"who..who... who are you?" I asked with a frightened voice

the human shaped shadow suddenly transformed like a dog while hiding in the shadows. the dog stepped forward while me who suddenly grabbed a stick near me to protect myself but the dog who stepped forward is a beautiful wolf . Her fur can be seen fluffy so its obvious that it's soft that I want to touch it ,her eyes is like sparkling blue diamond that I was startled for a second

"Quira it's me... Quira?!"

I came back to my senses

"who...who are you where did you came from? "

" It's me Quira ... it's me ... Blacky " she said

" what?... I'm confused... why are you named Blacky while you majority color is Blue? "I asked her with a confused face.

" It was you who named me Blacky"

"Ha?"

" Me?...I didn't even met you and also you came out of nowhere"

" It's me Blacky I am your childhood friend I am the one lived inside your little ring ,I am one of the wolf saved by your grandmother "

" You know my Grandmother?! and what do you mean you lived inside my ring ?"

She sat down crossed her legs, I calmed down fixed my posture awkwardly

" Ok?... How the heck did you fit in my ring? What the heck are you saying?... And why are you" I akwardly said palm pointing at her , she smiled meaning she understand what I meant.

" listen to my story and please put down that stick I won't bite you .when I was born our pack was wiped out by a hunters ,my father was the leader of the pack but died defending us ,my mother is the only one survived but by giving birth and tiredness of running she died, it was her first time giving birth but she didn't make it .While your Grandmother is exploring the forest she saw me and take good care of me ,she put me in that ring to protect me and gain some strength from that ring ,During childhood I always come out and play with you in the big house,we were both baby back then but I always run out of energy so I decided to just stay in the ring to gain a lot of energy so until this day today is the only day I came out".

" So it's like this ring is your charger?"

" kinda"

" During my years in that ring , I learned what you learned throughout your high school and elementary years , and I saw what you are doing during your childhood years "

Then she suddenly transformed as a human

I grabbed my stick and pointed it out to her again, for I was afraid that she would suddenly attack me.

"OA mo naman!..." she laughed

"Would you like me to transform back into a wolf or would you prefer that I remain a human"she asked while her eyes were stared at me.

"I think you should remain as a human, because it is weird seeing a wolf talking like a human" i said while standing up.
