Love Your Neighbor

The sun shines brightly when Claudia wakes up from bed. She opens the window and the sun kissed into her face. She hears the birds chirping as she close her eyes.

Claudia:What a beautiful morning!

Tim:Oh! you looks happy today? Is there

something good?

Claudia: I'm just happy to see you. (just a whisper to herself)

Tim:Did you say something?

Claudia:No! no! Please don't mind me,

continue what you're doing. (with a

smile in her face).

Tim continue fetching water from the deep well. Trina's family owned the well that's why it was behind their house, and almost all of their neighborhood fetch water in there including Tim, her best friend. To whom she was secretly inlove with.

Claudia! ! Claudia! ! Are you awake. Come over here! We are about to eat our breakfast

(shouted by Claudia's mother from their kitchen)

Claudia:Bye Tim, see you later.

Tim: Ok. See yah!

Claudia straightforward to the kitchen upon calling by her mother.

Claudia:What's for breakfast mom?

Mother:I cooked your favorite.

Claudia:Is that omelette?

Mother:Oh. . . Your right!! (happily answered)

Claudia:Yeheey!!!

Mother:Have a set. I'll just call your father.

Claudia:Ok mother.

When Claudia's parent enter the kitchen, they set infront of the table and start eating. It was a great meal shared by their family.

After eating, Claudia wash the dishes and leave the house to meet Tim.

Claudia:Tim! ! ! ! (while waving her hands)

Tim: Claud! (waves back)

Claudia: Did you wait for an ages?

Tim: Nah! not really. Only a decades. (while

smirking)

Claudia:You crazy! (while punching Tim's

shoulder slightly).

Tim:Let's go! (while offering his hands).

Claudia: In where to?

Tim:You'll find out later.

Claudia just give her hand to Tim and followed his foot steps. They walked for about half an hour to where Tim brought her.

Claudia:Is this the place? What's in here?

Tim: You'll find later. Where almost there.

Claudia: ok. ok.

They continue walking and suddenly Claudia's eyes open widely of what she saw.

Claudia:Wow! (with amaze expression)

Tim:I told you, you'll love it.

Claude:So much! Worth the effort. Thank you

for bringing me here.

Tim brings Tina, at a place on where she can overview their place with a blue and foggy scenery. They spend the whole day overlooking their town. At around five o'clock in the afternoon, they decided to go home since the sun is already setting. Upon, going home, they feel someone is behind. It was dark inside the forest since it was covered with large trees.

Tim:Do you feel what I feel?

Claudia:Yes. I'm scared Tim. (while trembling)

Tim:Don't yah worry I'm just by your side.

Claudia holds tightly unto Tim's shoulder while her eyes wondered around the bush looking for whom followed them. They continued running until they reach the entrance of the forest.

Claudia:Woah! ! That was so close. I taught

Theirs a monster in the forest.

Tim: Hahahaha! ! You make me laugh Claud,

Their is no monster living in our society.

Claudia:Stop laughing Tim. My heart almost

separated from my body because of

what we hear.

Tim:I'm sorry Claud. I can't help it. (while still

laughing?

Claudia:hmmp (with angry expression)

They continue walking until they reach the center in between their respected homes.

Tim:Bye Claud. See yah tomorrow.

Claudia:Bye Tim.

They said their goodbyes until Claudia reach their house.

Claudia's Mother: Where did you came from?

Claudia: From the forest.

Claudia's Mother: What? And you just came from there until this time?

Claudia:Yes mom. We didn't notice the time

because we're mesmerize by the

scenery.

Claudia's Mother: Did something happen?

Claudia: No! No! No! Nothing really!

Claudia's Mother: (in disbelieve expression)

Claudia: Don't give me that expression mom,

I'm saying the truth.

Claudia's Mother: Ok! ok! (with give up sign)

I'm just kidding. Clean yourself now

cause we're having dinner.

Claudia:Yes mom.

Claudia went upstair to clean herself.

While in her room, cleansing herself, something bothered in her conscious mind.

Claudia' POV_ Gosh! I'm still scared. I will not return to that forest ever. But, who was really following us? If it was a monster, maybe we can't make it home. Maybe if it's a monster, it will eat us alive. Well, thanks God that we are safe and sound.

After blooming herself, Claudia went downstair to join dinner with her parents.

Claudia: I smells delicious! hmmm!

Claudia's Father: Ofcourse! Your beautiful

mother heartfully made that dishes for

us. Suit yourself.

Claudia's Mother: hmmp! your just flattering

me honey. (with a smile like a teen ager)

Claudia's Father: It's true honey.

(while tickling each other)

Claudia: Stop it Mom, Dad! I'm infront of you

Claudia's Parent: Sorry darling.(while

laughing).

Claudia's Mother: Let's eat now.

After the dinner Claudia went straight to her room. Since she is not yet sleepy, she open the window to star gaze. The sky is full of stars that night. After a minute, She heard something outside. It seems that someone is gazing at her from afar.

Pssst. . .pssst. . .psst. . .psst. . .

She search for that sound, and it seems that it's came behind the huge tree beside their well. Upon looking at the tree, she saw a pair of red light blinking. Claudia felt her skin hair stood up of what she saw. When she was about to close the window, She heard a familiar voice calling her name.

Claudia wait! ! ! !

Claudia turn around to know whose calling her name.

Claudia: Oh my gosh! ! You gave me a heart

attack. How dare you, make fun of me!

Tim:hahahahahha. . . .Sorry Claud, I was just

trying to scare you. I don't expect you to

respond like that(while still laughing)

Claudia:Ha ha ha Funny (in sarcasm way).

Why you're here anyway?

Tim: Ah! I just want to tell you that, I'll bring

you to another place tomorrow. Are you

in?

Claudia: In what place again? Please not in

the forest. I already scared going there.

Tim:Not anymore. It's a beautiful place. It's

just near from here. I swear you'll loved it.

Claudia:Are you sure with that?

Tim:Yes I am. believe me.

Claudia: Ok fine. Im in.

Tim: And I have something to tell you

tomorrow.

Claudia: why not now? your're already here

anyway.

Tim: Just wait for tomorrow. I need to prepare

myself.

Claudia secretly smile when she hear Tim say that words.

Claudia:Ok fine. See yah tomorrow. bye!

Tim. See yah! Bye.

After saying their goodbyes, Claudia close her window and happily jump unto her bed.
