You Will Regret

Two weeks before the wedding, Sakura was busy preparing and getting everything she needed happily. She was very excited as she was going to marry her wonderful man after two years of courtship.

Her parents were even more excited as her only daughter was finally getting married. They were in cloud nine. They booked the best dinner at a five-star restaurant.

One morning, she received a note through the post. She opened the envelope half expecting a card or a letter from friends congratulating her. There was a note but the content was short. There were only two lines.

Don't marry him. You will regret the rest of your life. Miko

She was surprised but not bothered as she thought it was only a joke from a friend. Her friends often played pranks and maybe this was one of them.

The next day, she received another note with the same message. She just tossed it into the waste paper basket. On the third day when she got another note with the same message, she was a little agitated. She took the note and met her fiance at a cafe. Her fiance read the note and just laughed it off. He only told her to forget it.

One week before the wedding, there was another note but with a longer message.

I told you not to marry him. You have not heeded my message. You will regret it for the rest of your life. Miko

It must be the work of some sick person. That was the thought that ran through her mind. She completely forget about the note this time.

Two days before the wedding, her close friends and former classmates organised a night out to celebrate the last two days of being single. She was happy beyond words but at the same time sad that she would not be able to enjoy her carefree lifestyle. She was going to miss her colleagues and buddies.

At the party, she was informed that they had invited Miko, a long lost classmate. She cound not really remember who she was but her name was familiar. The writer of the notes.

Her friends explained to her that they had often humiliated and made fun of her when they were in school. Miko had often cried in class and had severl times tried committing suicide. Only then that Sakura remembered her. She immedaitely felt sorry and at the same time was afraid to meet her. At one point she wanted to leave the singles party but her friends retained her.

It was a blessing for her too as Miko did not turn up that night. She was relieved and enjoyed the rest of the night.

On the day of the wedding, she received a parcel. Thinking that it was a present from a friend, she quickly opened it. She was shocked and dumbfounded. There was a headless doll with a note attached. The message read:

This is the last warning. Don't marry him or you will really regret fro the rest of your life. Miko.

She showed the items to her fiance but he just brushed them aside and telling her to forget the whole thing.

The wedding went smoothly without a hitch. People cheered and commented the couple. She was very happy.

That night, after the dinner, the newly married couple sat in their honeymoon chamber. They were enjoying a little wine and laughing.

He quietly whispered into her ears not romantic words but these:

I told you not to get married. You will now regret it.

The voice was female in nature and it came from her 'husband'.

The Girl at the Window

Hello, this is one of many bizzare but true stories. Read on and be patient.

Story No. 1
The girl at the window
There was a boy who always used the same road to go to school and to go home. One day, after school, he was walking home as usual, when he happened to look up at a block of condominium. He usually did not pay attention to the surrounding but there was something that attracted him that afternoon.
At one of the windows, a girl was looking down onto the road. Being a shy boy, he had a glimpse of her and continued his way home. It was the same the next day
That night, he felt his heart stirred due to the image of the girl at the window. He wanted to get to know her and maybe she wanted to get to know him too. That was his initial idea.
So he made up his mind to meet her after school or maybe later. That afternoon, as usual he passed the place and saw her again. His heart skipped and he felt excited. He waved at her but she just looked at him with a sad expression. He was a little disappointed but that did not dampened his spirit. He made up his mind to go there in the evening after his dinner.
After dinner, he happened to skim the newspaper and saw a picture of a girl. Immediately, his heart jumped with joy. As he read on, he got excited and frightened. The girl had been kidnapped two days ago. He checked the photograph again. Yes, she was the girl at the window.
He wanted to tell his parents but they had gone out. He wanted to call the police but would the police believe him. He may even be arrested if his story was false. So, he made up his mind to investigate first and take appropriate action later if she is the girl in the story.
After locking his house, he made his way to the condominium. It was easy as he was familiar with the area. He went up two flight of stairs and came to the door of the apartment. He put his ears at the door to listen to any sound from within. There was none. He then knocked lightly and was ready to run away if indeed there was someone at the door. He waited and waited. He knocked a little louder and still there was no answer.
He tried the door knob. It was not locked so he pushed and it creaked a little. His heart beat became faster. He pushed a little more and peeped into the house. All was dark and he had to get accustomed to the darkness. He walked slowly inside and made his way to the door of the room that would be facing the road.
The door was ajar and it was dark too. It was empty too. He looked around and saw the figure of someone at the window. The girl? The same girl?
Being not sure, he walked towards the figure who was still looking down through the window. He called softly at her but there was no reply. He became bolder and approached her. When he was inched away from her, he saw that she was hanging from a rope tied to the window.
Immedaitely, he knew that the girl had died and that was why she had been looking at him through the window for the past three days.
You can guess what happened next.
