Late night. At 2am. I decided to go to Jalan Kayu for prata. im craving for them since the day. I geared up, took my MD and left my phone at house cos it will be of no use. I went out and took my bike. I cycled. I cycled to Buangkok and turned in to Sengkang East Ave. Least cars and people were on the streets. it dead quiet. The air will chilled and still. I reached a road. Sengkang Methodist Church stood right beside the road. i prayed. then i continued to cycle. i'm reaching the end of the HDBs. Woods and Nothing surrounded me. Lamp-posts lited the secluded road. I reached the T-junction. No cars, people, HDBs but lorries were parked on the side of the road on the right side of the T-junction. I turned left where i reached a bridge. I wondered if it takes me to Jalan Kayu. it seem bleak. i cycled slowly across the bridge. I could see a long stretch of lamppost-lited lane. the street was empty. except for lamp-posts, a Closed LRT tram line. A Desolated Lane where cars re hardly seen. Insects creaking. The cold air. The ever-growing fear. Thoughts of turning back. A turn right at the end of the never-ending road. The woods were so pitch black even the lamp cant light it up. I couldnt hear the shrill chirping sound of the cricket as i was listening to my MD, that comfort me a lil. I cycled slowly. i fear the obscurity. its gets colder and scarier. So cold, so Cold, goosebumps grow. Fear grew rapidly in me. I looked around occasionally. Nothing is there. not even a cat or a bird or any dog. darn. its deserted and frightening. I couldnt withstand the fear no more. i turned back just when i reached Kupang station. I cant go further more. Its became so chilled and so scary. I was freezing. I cycled back and took a alternative route. It did lead me to Jalan Kayu. then i killed my crave and ate prata. after which, i headed home. rest a while. watch a lil teebee. Bathe. and i slept. i was half-awaken in the morning. i think i had a nice dream. maybe it was just my thoughts that become a dream. Sweet.
