Behavior Exhibiting Excessive

Running away from someone chasing Emily from behind. She wasnt a fast runner but tries hard to distance herself from that someone. She ran across the streets and was stopped by a poor elderly woman whom kindly asking her if she could lend some money to raise funds for her son education. But she pushes her away and continue running as she saw the person coming near her. She began to have her mind interrupted, like a flashback. Something blurry, an old human figure with tied grey hair. She snaps out of it, and continues running when she tripped and hit her head. She then fall unconscious.

The next day, she found herself running away from that same figure, but this time, she ran faster. She was stopped by the elderly woman whom she met with yesterday. Looking back and sees no one behind, she sincerely gave her the money she have and looking at her, her mind interrupts her. That elderly woman seems familiar, just that she couldnt recall. Snapping out of her mind, she looked behind and saw the figure coming towards her. She ran as fast, she stumbles but didnt fall. She continue running, seeing the red light traffic and still ran until she saw a bright rim light coming towards and fell unconscious.

Woke up at the same place where starts running from that figure, she got confused. she asked herself

"why is this happening to me? whats wrong with me? am i in the right world?! "

She looks around, with no sight of the figure, she walks slowly to find the old lady. But sadly, she couldnt find her. She got confused by the past and starts to walk further and saw a tree brunch and steps over it. She thinks to herself, why she feels different from the other two days she had done before. She saw the traffic and waited for the green lights. Just right behind her, she heard someone whispering her name. She look and terrified to see the figure, now much clearer. To her suprise, it was herself, look exactly like her. She couldnt believe whats happening as she close and opens her eyes back to see if its true. Her other self with no second thoughts shot her on the chest.

The next day, she wakes up and found herself in a hospital bed, with bandage and bruise all over. She then wonders which of the 3 incidence could have happen? She asked the doctor,

" Doctor, what exactly happened to me? i have a terrible dream. please tell me what happened?"

The doctor nods his head and says

" you were actually running around town, with a gun. And you killed an innocent lady. Maybe you're terrified, you tried killing yourself by commiting suicide on the road, but vehicles stopped by seeing you sitting down in the middle of the road. Being paranoid i guess, you shot yourself on the chest. "

Emily was shocked to hear the news. She was actually in hysteria all this while and was glad she is still alive, but was imprison after she had recovered.

Living Impaired

Life is precious to all means. I never a life to go wasted by taking drugs, or committing suicide. I have a story about a friend, whom struggles though his life being a visually impaired.

I was playing soccer with Hakim and my other classmates. Well, me and Hakim are close friends and people even calls us gay partners as we live just opposite blocks and would wait for one another at the void deck to go school together. He's a nerdy with bowled haircut, quiet and petite guy. I got close with him due to the fact that everyone always looks down and bullies him and he's always alone. One time during P.E lesson, we played floorball but before the game start, the two captains will pick his group members. Everyone was chosen and left with Hakim, which unfortunately the other group have to take but was being looked down by one of his worst nightmare friend, Danny. He shouted

" walao! this guy again? cannot make it la sia. You dont need to play for us la! Lousy bugger. "

I looked up at Hakim seeing him in misery, dragging his feet to prepare for the game. I feel bad not standing up for him, but i couldnt do much even. The game starts and i played fairly well scoring some goals until i look around looking for Hakim. He isnt around at the court but with me having fun, i ignored him.

After P.E , we headed straight to class , sweaty and tired when i saw Hakim sitting on his place reading a book. I asked him

"Hey, why didnt you play? we had fun! "

He just nods and smile. I bought him his favourite Bandung drink to cheer him up. But didnt work. Few days later, i realised that he had been avoiding me, and when i asked him to go school together, he rejected. I sense something isnt right now. Another P.E lesson, this time we played soccer. I knew he will be playing regardless of which team he's in as soccer is is hobby since pri school. He was the opposite team and we played awhile. He played well even thought Danny keeps interrupting his mind talking shits about him. Until a moment of second when i turn around, i saw Danny raising his feet high up reaching for the ball when Hakim is just infront of him. Slams Hakim with his forceful kick to his face. I didnt know if it was on purpose or accidental. I ran towards him and saw his eyes bleeding, flowing like a river, with him crying out in pain. Tears roll down my cheeks and i asked him

" are you alright?! dont open your eyes! Stay strong! dont cry!"

He was then hospitalized for a few weeks until we can see him. Bad news that, he was visually impaired ever since the incident. He asked me

"will you still be my friend when im like this fi? i cant see you. I cant see the world. I feel like ending my life now fi. Im sorry. "

Hearing that, i shouted

" what the **** are you talking about man! you're still young! come on man. i will help you through your life. We're friends remember? "

and i left him speaking no goodbye. He then was released from hospital, but didnt attend school as my school doesnt take visually impaired students. I feel sorry for him and visits him once awhile. One day, while i was in his house,he starts behaving strangely, he slits his wrist, and attempts suicide when i quickly grab his body down. I beat him while crying. Shouting

" are you crazy bro?! are you?! **** you! what the hell are you trying to do?! treasure your life will you?! just, **** you. Thanks for making me feel like a dumb shit friend who cares for you when you just want to end it like this?! Think bro! "

Few weeks later, i received a phone call from him, saying thanks to me for holding him back when he was committing suicide as now he is studying in a school for visual impaired and had a part time job to earn himself too. I feel great for him and wish him luck for all his life.

Picture capturing moments


Hartini is a cheerful and bright person, who dreams to be a model someday. I met her when we were in ITE. first impression of her was she being a busybody kind of person, and always nags at the smallest things but actually she's a nice person with ambitious dreams. And since im interested in photography, i asked her to be my model and maybe, could pile up her portfolio in modeling. She was excited! On the day of shoot, she came, dress beautifully shines among all the people around. My jaw dropped. With nicely done makeup and fashionable clothing, she said

"how do I look?"

I was speechless, and then said " you're ....you're....gorgeous. beautifully gorgeous. "

I admire her as a friend though as i think cherishing a close friend will last longer than a boy/girl relationship. We became close friends after since.

One fine day, things changed. She starts being quiet in class, and i knew something isnt right. I asked her if she is okay, she nodded. Being concern, i bought her panadol pills and thought she will get better. It turn out worse. She began to start getting dizzy and i accompanied her home, skipping our class. We've reached to her void deck when she suddenly faints. I panic, grab her phone inside her back and find her contacts to call her home. The house phone rang, but no response. I cant just wait there with her, so i lift her up and carry to her home.

At home, she went conscious and asked me for water. I went to the kitchen and gave her the water. She asked me what happened, and i explain to her. She looked pale and weak. Soon later, her mom reached home from work. And was shocked to see me in the house with her. She shouted

" HEY! WHO ARE YOU?1 GET OUT OF THE HOUSE NOW!"

i was terrified. I tried to explain to her but she wouldnt want to listen. I just went out of the house, feeling down. After all my effort helping her, thats what i get in return. I went back home and tried calling her, but couldnt reach.

Didnt seen her in school for a week, and no calls from her, i went to her house. Knocking on the door, i heard the television inside playing. I knew someone is inside. So i shouted " Tini, its me, Sufi..could you please open the door? are u feeling better now? " when he mom opens the door. She said " sorry i shouted at you the other day, come in,come in.." with her soft voice. I came inside, and she told me that Hartini had a high fever due to her poor diet. She wanted to look slimmer, and have a "model's body look ". Thats the reason why she's being weak now. Me being curious, I went into her room and i saw her looking like this.


With tissues spread all over, with black eyes, her covering herself with blanket shivering in coldness. Looking at her shivers, i took a photo of her. I sat beside her, whispering " hey, like i've promised, i'll help you not just in studies, but everything else. Please eat your medicine and get well soon okay? We can have another photoshoot." She smiled. I felt relieved after that, and warn her to have a proper diet. As she's already have that "model figure". she nodded and we pinky promised.

Few weeks later, she got well and as i promised her, we went for another shoot and this time, she eats more than she usually does. Thats how best friends should act for one another. Not just best friends. Any friends will do. Its just another thing in life you have to have, friendship.
