"Hey, Liam! Are you okay?" He asks me.
"I'm okay, Jacob," I keep staring at the rain.
"Oh, I see. You still hate this situation, right?" He sit down next to me.
I hate rain, especially the smell of the rain. Many people say that the smell was giving so much chill. But it's a big no for me. It was happening when I was 15 years old. Around 3 years ago. I walked alone on the sidewalk. It was after rain, so the petrichor burst along the road. I looked around, and I realized that no one's around. It's very quiet. And suddenly a boy who looked like 3 or 4 years older than me was approaching me. His appearance was so scary, he wore a black hoodie, and a black trouser. I wanna run, but I can't. My legs didn't want to move. I trembled when the boy was standing in front of me. He reached my neck and grabbing it so tight. And I realized that his hand wasn't a human hand. It was black and sharp, and also pointed on the edges.
He's not a human,
He's a monster.
Slowly, he whispered to me.
"Hey buddy, do you wanna be my best friend? I don't have any friends. You'll be a good friend for me, right?"
I was trembling more and more. I couldn't breathe.
"W-what do you mean? This is a dream, right? Y-you're a monster,"
Unfortunately, he was tightening up his grip.
"Do you wanna die?" He whispered in my ear once more. His voice was so deep and scary. His voice sounds like grim reaper I thought.
"N-no! P-please lemme go, o-okay, i w-will do wh-whatever you want, b-but please! Lemme go,, ughh.. it hurts..." I started to cry, I can't take it anymore, it was so hurt.
"Good, see you soon," He released his hand from my neck and left me alone on the sidewalk.
So that's the reason why I hate petrichor. The smell's always brings me back to that horrible experience.
And one thing that makes me more hate the petrichor, is...
The monster I met that day was sitting right next to me.
He's not a human,
And one thing that makes me more hate the petrichor, is...
