Have you ever felt that someone is behind you but you cannot see him.Everytime and everywhere you go,you can feek his presence.I always imagine that i can see him and talk to him when i felt lonely(i'm not going nuts).His name is Merick.How do i know his name?I do not know.The name just came into my head.
Last month,my friend and i went down to the market to paint the town red when the school holiday started.Every seller wanted to sell their stuffs and they promoted them loudly.Suddenly,i heard one of the sellers said,"buy these magic candles and you can see ghosts with your own eyes ,you can't buy these magic candles anywhere in the world,magic!magic!magic!".Then i saw the candle.It was fat and red in colour.Nick,who was my friend said,"Don't you be silly to but those things"."But Nick,I want to try it.I don't care if he wants to cheat me",I said.Nick pulled my hand to another stall.The seller saw that my eyes were still looking at the candle and he called me."Hey boy,you can have this candle for five dollars".I could say that it was good because i would see my friend,Merick for five dollars."Are you going nuts or something?"said Nick.I did not care about what he said.
I asked again"What's the price?"I mumbled.'Five dollars",answered the seller.It was hard for me to find the money in my wallet because my hands were shaking with excitement and everyone around me were laughing at me including nick.I took out all the coins in my wallet."Sorry,uncle.I just have three dollars",i said."It's okay.You can have this candle for three dollars "said the sellers gently."How you can believe in invisible creatures and the candle that make you see it?It doesn't make any sense",said Nick.I just kept my mouth shut.Then,we made our way home.I just cannot stand Nick's behaviour he is always babbling at me including along our journey to go home.His behaviour is just like his father.I wondered how his mother could stand his father.
When i arrived at home,i opened the parcelwhich contained the candle that i had bought.there was a sheet of paper that gave me the instructions on how to use the candle.Based on the paper,i had to light the candle at midnight infront of the mirror.the candle only worked on friday night.How lucky i was ,the day was thursday.i could sleep well that night.I always glanced at my watch,waiting for the watch to show twelve o'clock.I took out the candle under the bed.I tiptoed to the kitchen to find matches.Then,brought the candle and matches to the toilet.Infront of the mirror,i lit the candle.Before the candle could light up,i wasted nine matches because my hands were shaking with fear to see Merick.
After the candle lighted,i could feel my skin prickling with fear.Suddenly,something was about to appear."Hi Jake,i'm your friend' he said."Are you merick?How did you know my name?",i asked."i'm your friend so i know your name all your friends.Oh,sorry we cant,talk for too long.I have to go now and tell Nick that his mom's cat will come back tomorrow morning,bye....."He said."Wait,wait,wait,i still want to ask you something", i called but he just disappeared.
The next morning,i went to school ,then i told my friends about what had happened the night before.First,they did not believe it but after i told Nick about his mom's cat,they believed."How did you found out about that?"Nick asked.'MERICK told me.Now do you believe me?"."Yes we do,you're right.The cat had come back.We want to meet merick too.Can we?they asked"."Yes you can but on the next friday night".
The next thursday,they come to my house.My mom prepared a lot of food for us.Before midnight,we watched television..After that we wore pyjamas and i off to bed earlier.Before we slept,we set our clock fifteen minutes before midnight for preparation to meet Merick.
We heard our watches made some noise and we close lit immediately before my parents could hear it and spoil our plan.We tiptoed to the toilet and lit the candle infront of the mirror.Slowly,Merick began to appear.I could hear that Nick chocked on his scream.Merick brought us to his world.We were astonished after we saw that his world was so beautiful.here were Cinderella,Robin,Snow White,and actually Merick was Cinderella's husband.HE WAS A PRINCE.No wonder he wa s so handsome.How lucky i was because i could know him.
We were brought to his castle and all types of food were served in a big table.The food made my mouth water.Before we eat the food we had to wait for someone.Merick said it was a surprise.Suddenly,a beautiful woman came into the room.Merick introduced her to us.Oh my god!She was Cinderella.ow excited we were.After having a meal,Cinderella brought us to meet SNOW WHITE.THAT TIME ,I JUST WANTED TO SCREAM because i was so excited.We had a long talk with Snow Whiteand she told us her life storyuntil she met her lover.SO,I AM THE ONE WHO INTRODUCED SNOW WHITE'S STORY TO THE WORLD.Suddenly,an arrow came across and shot the tree in front of us.IT WAS TOO CLOSE!We wondered who did itIt was a man who did it.He came towards us and asked for forgiveness.
He introduced himself and HE WAS ROBIN HOOD.He told that he was sow white's lover.We all got shocked .Actually she had broke up with her first lover because he liked to push her head everytime he laughed.She added that she could get up from her long sleep because of his first lover's STINKY BREATH,it's not because of true love.However,i did not tell the world about her true story for her dignity.
In the end Merick told us that he could not let us be in his world for too long because the time in his world was not the same a sin our world.A half of a day in his world was the same as two days in our world.We have to leave Merick and all of his friends aand wife.Cinderella told Merick to bring us again.SUDDENLY,we were in front of our school in school uniform.Maybe Merick knew that day was the school day.That was why he sent us to school.
Our teachers said that we were missing for two days.Everyone was worried .The teachers called our parents to tell them that we were i school .The next friday night,we would meet Merick again and we would be his friends forever and ever........................!!!!!!!!!!
