Horror And Mystery Stories
red stained white dress

Time has shown at 00:00, but somehow my eyes are reluctant to close. I reopened my window curtain. The moon and the rambutan tree in front of my house decorated that night. Although it was so quiet, but it was as if the rambutan tree was surrounded by white creatures while smiling at me. I'll immediately brush off those shadows. I closed my window curtains. 

Then I went to the bathroom. At that time I was at home by myself. Because my father, mother, and sister were in jogja, at my grandmother's house. My intention to pee, and wash my face dimmed. It was as if as I walked into the bathroom, behind me I was as if someone was watching me. How shocked I was, something fell down from the kitchen. Color pure white, wine-scented. And decorated with a heart picture on the bottom. Like a white dress. Then I took the dress. It's exquisite. But it's heavy. At the bottom, and on the inside is written “Siromana.” I thought, maybe this is the name of the owner of this dress. 

But I thought, where did this dress fall from? I took the dress to my room. I looked at that dress again. I stick it to my body, while I look in the mirror. How wonderful. But strangely, in the middle of the dress, there was a red stain. Then I kissed the red stain. “ acchhrr... it smelled rancid and it smelled wine..” I thought at the time. But I have the intention to have that dress. I'll wash it the next day. And I'm wearing it at Valentine's night dance at Villa Deski next week. I'd look pretty if I wore that dress. Then my eyes started to get sleepy. And I put the dress back in my closet. And I went to sleep on the bed in my room.

I woke up in the morning from my sleep. I slowly walked my feet into the bathroom. I washed. I looked at my face in the bathroom. “ ASTAGAA!!” my shout. Because I saw a shadow of a woman wearing a white dress in the reflection of that glass. Immediately I turned around and looked behind me. Did I see wrong? Because there's no one behind me. Maybe this is just my fantasy. But I think I know that dress that woman was wearing. Yeah, that's the dress I found last night. I rushed to my room. I open my closet. The dress was still in my closet. Then I took the dress. And I looked back. I see more and more red stains, but last night these stains were not this wide. I took the dress to the bathroom, and I washed it. 

But strangely, the water that used to wash the dress, was not red. The dress was stained red. I'm curious about the stain. “what is this red stain?” my thinking. I kissed, and I closed my eyes. As I closed my eyes, a sketch of such an event flashed through my mind. Out of nowhere but it was real. It was like I saw a beautiful Dutch girl wearing this dress and dancing. Her smile is so sweet. Looks like he's dancing at a dance. And on that occasion, it seemed like the place was in this house, in the living room. Then I opened my eyes immediately. I'm a little scared. Then I immediately put that shirt on behind my house.

Yep, the day I've been waiting for has arrived. Today is Valentine's Day and tonight I will be attending a dance at Villa Deski. I wonder if I should wear such a beautiful dress? I'm afraid I'm too flashy tonight. But it's okay, I really want to wear this dress.

Time has shown at 19:00. Immediately I get ready to decorate myself. I cut my face, I combed my hair, and I took my dress in my closet. Slowly I put on the dress. “ waw.... great! Very beautiful!” I look so pretty. I danced happily. I sing too. I feel like the most beautiful woman in the world when I wear this dress. I don't know why my head suddenly got dizzy. My stomach's nauseous. And I can't see clearly, just dimly. And I fell. Then fainted. When I passed out, I felt like I was going into another dimension. I was walking at a dance party one night. But strangely, no one seems to know where I am. At that time I was in a crowd. And indeed the event seemed to be held in my new home, by the Dutch. I followed a woman who was wearing a dress whose dress was exactly like the one I was wearing right now. I follow his moves. He seemed to be dancing with his girlfriend. 

I wanted to help the woman, but I couldn't touch her. Then the woman's body was hidden and buried by them near the rambutan tree in front of the house. But before they buried the body, I saw the dress worn by the woman was stripped, and taken by her friend. They laugh. How cruel I thought. Lover would kill for the sake of cheating with her best friend's lover himself. Then I woke up I felt a little dizzy. When I woke up I saw a shadow. Yeah, I know that shadow. That was the woman I had in my dream. She's staring. He wanted me to follow him. Then I followed the woman. It seemed like he was heading towards the rambutan tree that was in front of my house. Up there, he turned his body and looked towards me. She smiles. Then her hand pointed towards the dress I was wearing at the time. He pointed towards the ground where his body was in the tomb. Yeah, I got it. Maybe she gave the code to bury the dress in her grave.

“ do you want this dress I buried in here?” I asked while pointing to the grave.

I saw him nod. Then I rushed to the room. I stripped the dress. And I buried it in the ground earlier. And I'm back. Suddenly the woman reappeared, and she seemed to shed tears and smiled at me. I saw him flying up into the sky. He got higher, then he disappeared. I think he must have calmed down. I feel happy. Then I went back home. When I closed the door, suddenly my father's car came. They have come home from Jogja.

“ Viona, this mama bring souvenirs, here babe!”

“ yes ma, what is it?”

“ this darling, white dress, beautiful right?”

To my surprise, the dress was very similar to Siromana's. I smile. I kissed the dress. then I picked up. “ Yes ma. Very good, I like this dress... but it does not smell wine..” I said at the time.
