Forbidden Forrest

Following But Not Following

------------------

I rode a motorbike with Zahid, and they were both in front, we followed behind.

The strange thing is that the path we took was not the same as when we left.

The streets and atmosphere are quieter.

"Where did this go?"

I asked Zahid.

"This is a long tread road, so it's a long forest after this!"

Well, I guessed. I'm the most anti when passing through the forest.

Because surely many of 'them' will follow, disturb and ask for help. And this sure...

When I had started to enter the forest area, I saw a gate which indicated that it had started to enter the forest area.

Along the way, I was silent, because 'They' had started to feel my presence. Some of them have just been silent in the middle of the road. Someone on the side of the road looked at me with a sad face.

There are those in the trees and many more. Most of 'They' are spirits of humans who died and haven't found their way.

The housing has been deserted, and now it is full of tall trees, the only lights being provided by motorbikes. A road that can only be passed by one motorbike.

The atmosphere is getting colder and foggy, cold not from the problem of the cold night. But cold because of the air from 'Them' all.

"Still far Hid?"

"Yes, about fifteen minutes just out of this forest!?"

"Fifteen minutes!?"

I answered surprised.

Gosh it's been so long

"Calm down, the guys in front of us are like it when it's like a test of guts!"

Damn it...

I'm upset inside. Because if you want to test your guts, that's not right. Because it requires a lot of super-duper energy.

While I was tired because of what happened earlier. The incident is still unclear which makes me still wondering too.

In one place I felt a very unusual cold. Unusual cold too.

I closed my eyes and looked around me.

And I was surprised when I saw everyone gathered and following the four of us.

Everyone gathered. Everything...

"Help me!!"

I immediately opened my eyes and saw a female figure in the middle of the road with a tie around her neck.

What's more, I'm not going to respond anymore.

"I ask!"

Shortly after she said the last sentence.

The motorbike that I rode with Zahid penetrated it, he was in the middle of the road.

And strangely, when Zahid and I pierced through it, the motorcycle lights suddenly went out for a while and then came on again.

"Gosh, I'm surprised!!"

Zahid said

I also felt something strange when I penetrated it.

She's Jin.

Damn, this is wrong. Dealing with the genie.

The coldness still seeps into my body.

"Stop!"

I looked around because the voice of the woman's figure earlier asked me to stop.

I just kept quiet and didn't take any action.

"Ahhhh"

I groaned and squirmed backward, the motorcycle I was riding also swayed for a moment.

I feel sore on my back.

"What's wrong?"

Zahid asked panicked.

"Hid, keep going, don't stop until we get home!"

"Yes, bro!"

The four of us weren't out of the woods yet, five minutes left.

The cold that has penetrated my body has not subsided.

The figure of a woman with something tied around her neck reappeared across the street.

I made eye contact with her.

And its true form is visible.

Her whole body was wet from top to bottom. Her skin was pale and peeling from her body. Water kept pouring from her body.

"Stop, help me!"

I was just silent as I passed it again.

Seen in front there is a gate, which indicates we are almost out of this forest.

"Ahhh"

I felt the same thing on my back again, and it felt almost the same when that 'Root Being' hurt me.

Is he here?...

Or is this the woman's doing.

I was a little relieved when I passed the gate. Because many more villages have started.

But the pain in my back can't be faked.

I straighten my body to reduce the pain when it rubs against my shirt.

I hurt my back.

As I passed through the long rice fields, I felt the cold again spread from my feet to my whole body.

Not long after, the figure of a woman tied by her neck reappeared across the rice fields while looking at me intently.

She didn't say any words.

Instead, just stare at me intently.

In every way, she is always there and shows her form in every way I go.

Did she follow me all the way home?

"Hid still long?"

"Wait a minute, hold on!"

Zahid answered somewhat panicked because he too must have known that something was wrong.

He gasped the motor a bit tighter.

"Bro, let's go back!! Hurry up!!"

Zahid shouted while overtaking his two friends.

I just kept quiet and was getting weaker.

I now leaned against Zahid's back. Because my body seems to lose energy aka my energy is drained out.

"You've arrived."

Zahid pecked his motorbike.

I got off the motorbike and asked Zahid to check my back.

"Let's go inside!"

I just nodded my head at him.

And I accidentally saw that the woman's figure was already on the second-floor balcony in front of the door.

Ahhh, I swear what the hell is she doing.

"Hid wait downstairs, I want to go upstairs first!"

Zahid understood the code I gave him.

Without thinking I went upstairs and met her.

I slowly opened the door and she was right in front of me.

"What is it?"

"Please untie this knot!"

Answer slowly

I'm disgusted by the scene I see in front of me right now.

The wet face and peeling skin on her face, with abstract shapes that make me sick...

I saw the coils of a dried aquatic plant tied around her neck tightly.

Unmistakably, she died because of witchcraft.

Because this is a dried water hyacinth plant.

I took the scissors that were in my bag. And approached her slowly.

I tried to untie it with scissors.

Because when I tried it with my hands I couldn't open it.

Ahh, a squeaking sound that made me nauseous again, and from her mouth came a lump of thick brown water that wet my hands.

Ewww I made a vomiting expression a few times. Because I want to throw up.

Her face and body are similar to Zombies.

Huh after I desperately tried to untie, finally the bond was released from her neck.

Shortly after, she smiled at me and faded before me.

Faded and lost.

She is at peace in her place.

I prayed for her for a moment.

I immediately sat where I was standing, my body was very weak.

"Ejh, hold on!"

The voice appeared in my head again. With my eyes closed

Who he is.
