the white dress

Where am I? It’s as though my memory has been erased. I know I’m a young girl, but my age is still a mystery to me. All I seem to remember is how I entered this house, or atleast I think that’s what it is.. I’m alone, and having nothing.

It was a Friday night, I was going to a party with a few friends. I was running down the dark street. I felt both nervous and excitement run through my body. Suddenly, I tripped over a crack in the footpath. I hit the ground hard and just lay there for what felt like hours. Suddenly I look up to see if my friends are waiting for me, but to my surprise no one is insight. I’m both confused and terrified as to where they disappeared to. But it wasn’t just my friends that had disappeared, I was surrounded by nothing, even the buildings have disappeared.

I remember standing there, hoping this is just a crazy dream, or nightmare and that when I wake up everything will be ok. All though I know deep down this is no dream. I walk down the silent road, and through the fog I see what I think is a house. I move in closer towards it and can easily see that it’s an old, large house, it was the only thing around, my only hope. I walk towards the door, chills running up my spine. I give it a tap and almost immediately the door flings open. But who opened it? There was no one there. Cautiously I walk in. I hear a loud screeching noise behind me. I quickly turn around to see the door has closed. The house is empty, except for a huge mirror t my right, but as I look at it I see a reflection, but it’s not me. It’s a pale girl wearing an old white dress. Suddenly a loud scream comes from the mirror, I turn and run, terrified. I push through the door, but instead of being outside I find myself in another room, alone.

I was alone, or atleast I thought I was. I hear a soft tapping noise behind me. I turn around to see the girl again. I walk up to her, my body shaking uncontrollably. I touch her, she disappears and everything went black.

I woke up a while later, this is all I remember. I look down at my clothes to see that I’m also dressed in a long white dress. Am I a ghost? I don’t know. Is this I dream I’ll suddenly wake up from? Or is it my fate. I guess I’ll have to wait a little longer for that girl to return to answer my questions. Until then I’m trapped and alone…
