& #39; "Father: Kung ano man makikita niyo during this session sana di magbago ang tingin niyo sa simbahan" & #39;
A horror story thread.
A horror story thread.
So nag-aral ako sa isang Catholic School here in Pampanga, which for the sake of validity papangalanan ko: Saint Mary& #39;s Academy Guagua...
Back in High School, alam naman natin na mandatory for Catholic Schools to conduct spiritual retreats for the graduating classes...
Ang sequence ng turns sa retreat is from the bottom section going up. I belonged to IV - AOL (2010), first section, so kami ang last to go..
Ang retreat destination namin that time was Betania Retreat House in Baguio here& #39;s a photo for reference.
Photo not mine, CTTO, kasi after the incident most of us sa class opted to delete all photos namin galing sa place na yan.
Anyway, marami na nauna section sa amin, so every time may uuwi syempre nagpapakwento kami and one thing in common lang sa kwento nila is...
"Wag kayong masyado lumapit sa fire exit", yan lahat sinasabi nila, dahil it turns out meron sobrang distubing feeling sa area na yon...
Aside from that is yung mga kwento nila na may footsteps silang naririnig, may nakikitang shadows na padaan daan, and...
yung pakiramdam na laging may nago-observe sayo. So syempre kami, ako rin personally, di namin binigyan gaano pansin. Chill lang ganon...
Kasi akala namin joke. Akala namin that time wala lang. Until nangyari sa amin...
I forgot the exact date eh pero that was around January, nakarating kami sa Betania past 3pm. Mukha siyang normal and simple lang na place..
After assigning roommates and a few reminders. Pinag-prepare muna kami lahat kasi daw we have to attend the afternoon mass dun sa church...
After that mag-tour daw around the place ng Betania. Kami ng bestfriend ko we stayed behind and nagchill lang sa room so di namin alam...
mga ginawa ng classmates ko. Kinwento lang din sa amin. When they went pala sa likod na garden ng Betania, may malaking tree doon...
Tapos nagtaka daw sila kung bakit yung roots ng tree is nilalangaw. As in sobrang dami daw, parang black na yung roots...
Out of childhood curiousity pinagbabato daw nila yung roots and tree. (BIG MISTAKE TANG INA NILA SERYOSO). So wala pa naman nangyari non...
However shit and hell was set loose sa church... So ayun nagpunta na kami sa church sa community don, okay naman, until natapos yung mass...
After ng mass namin, one of our classmates, which is Janine, biglang nag-collapse and started having difficulties breathing...
And medyo nag-panic kami kasi out of nowhere talaga and sobrang bigat ng paghinga niya...
Tapos sobrang weird kasi, bigla nagsstop palpitations niya tapos hihina breathing tapos biglang mag-iintensify ulit... Switching kumbaga.
After medyo magstabilize ni Janina, pinakarga na lang siya sa isa namin classmate and bumalik na kami sa retreat house...
Pagpasok namin sa lobby ng retreat house biglang nag-heavy breathing ulit si Janine so inupo siya dun sa parang chair sa lobby...
Ganito yung chair, something like this except lumang luma na tapos green and gold ang kulay. Ang after i-upo si Janine don...
Biglang tumakbo yung classmate namin na si Kim, paakyat sa 2nd floor, tapos kaming friends niya (and mga tsismoso) sinundan siya...
When we catched up to her nakaupo siya dun sa may stairs tapos umiiyak siya, parang pinapakalma niya sarili niya, then we asked her bakit...
And then sabi niya, "Dun sa likod nung chair kung saan inupo si Janine... may figure ng babae na black tapos walang face pero..."
"Nakita ko nakatingin pababa kay Janine and hawak niya sa ulo si Janine..." EDE KAMING LAHAT MUNTIK GUMULONG SA TAKOT DIBA? Pero...
Wala muna masyado nagsalita, di namin ginawang big deal... May dumating na ambulance and Janine was taken sa malapit na hospital...
Tapos all of us settled down on our rooms na wala masyado gusto mag-open up ng nangyari kasi ramdam ko natatakot kaming lahat...
Nagproceed sa orientation and we met the priest in charge of our retreat yada yada. And by 7pm that night, tumawag adviser namin...
Sa isa pang teacher na kasama namin, and pabalik na daw sila nina Janine and stable and conscious na daw si Janine...
Wala naman daw serious diagnosis sa kanya, nothing sa heart, nothing sa lungs, NOTHING. At best baka daw sa altitude kaya siya nagkaganon...
And so, kami nakatambay sa may lobby tsaka sa hall sa baba inaabangan pagbalik ng classmate namin tapos dumating na nga yung ambulance...
Tapos yung mga close friends ni Janine rushed na salubungin siya. Kami naman na iba andun lang sa may lobby inaantay sila makapasok...
And then FUCK SHET. Alam mo yung all smiles si Janine sa amin habang papasok ng lobby and at the moment na tumapak siya inside the lobby...
She lost consciousness and she started breathing heavily ulit. And what& #39;s worse is this time we could na she& #39;s struggling in pain...
However sabi ng RVM sister na kasama namin and adviser wag na ibalik sa hospital and let her rest na lang for the rest of the night...
So si Janine walang malay and nagpapahinga sa room niya. And kami na classmates niya syempre, dahil Catholic School, eh nagpray. (LOL)
Tapos during the Rosary may nangyari na weird... Diba after the 10th Hail Mary ng 5th mystery eh Hail Holy Queen na diba...
Kaso yung prayer leader, which is, Debbie biglang nagHail Mary ulit, and we were like ?????? tapos after may isa pa ulit, and another one...
Nung 13 na and sobrang medyo freaky na, may nagsalita na sa classmates namin, "Uy sobra na, haha Hail Holy Queen na tayo"...
And so tinapos ang Rosary at lahat nagtambay sa 2nd floor sama sama kasi takot HAHA, and kami ng circle ko nilapitan ng friend ni Debbie...
Tapos we asked bakit siya andun kasi she can& #39;t sit with us (CHAR) and sabi niya "Badtrip ako with Debbie nagtataray, red days ata"...
Debbie was 10 - 15 meters away from us that time so we made jokes about her... TAPOS BIGLA SIYANG NAGLAKAD PALAPIT SA AMIN GAGO!!! and..
bigla niya sinabi "BAKIT NIYO KO PINAGUUSAPAN?" and we were all like NANI O_O!!!!!??????? (sorry medyo scared me rn din haha kaya light na)
Tapos sabi na lang namin "Uy sorry joke lang..." kahit alam ko ang lahat ng gusto namin itanong is "PUTA PAANO MO NARINIG!?"...
After non ako and one of our classmates nagtambay sa dispenser and gumagawa ng coffee, karamihan nasa mga rooms na nila... then biglang...
May tumakbo palabas ng room niya and shouting "Uy guys help!" tapos kami una nakita so sa amin lumapit, "Guys, pakicheck naman si Debbie"...
At dito ko napatunayan na sobrang tsismoso ko at bida bida, kasi nakipagunahan ako na icheck si Debbie sa room niya... (big mistake)
Pagsilip ko sa room niya, that bitch (na3ggrd ako eh) was sitting in this position. She was staring and smiling at the door... at me!
And I asked "Huy okay ka lang ba?" and di siya sumagot, instead slowly niya hinubad yung rosary na suot niya (we all had one on us)...
Tapos bigla niya binato sakin, GAGO NABADING AKO LALO SA TAKOT, tumakbo ako papunta sa room ng adviser namin tapos kinabog ko yung door
"Ma& #39;am! Ma& #39;am! Pakitawag po si Father! PAKITAWAG PO SI FATHER" O diba walang poise lakas ng boses ko naglabasan lahat ng tao sa mga rooms...
Tapos tinawag ng adviser namin si Father tapos pag-akyat ni Father sabi agad niya "I need some people na pwede mag-assist..." and syempre...
Star ng pasko, nagvolunteer ako pero dinamay ko isa kong classmate, so ako, si kirby, si Ritz (YES, RITZ ALZUL classmate ko) ang sumama...
Actually I think nakwento din to ni Ritz Alzul sa isang interview sa kanya pero hindi detailed...
Anyway pagpasok namin ng room ni Debbie wala siyang malay, inayos namin siya ng higa sa floor and then sabi ni Father...
i-pin down daw namin si Debbie, hawakan yung binti and arms, ako sa binti, si Ritz and Kirby sa arms, tapos adviser namin sa may balikat...
And sabi ni Father sa RVM Sister na kasama namin "Sister let& #39;s begin the prayer..." so nagdasal si Father ng Latin and lumapit na kay Debbie
Ginawa niya yung "benediction gesture" sa right hand niya. And then parang tinusok niya sa tummy si Debbie and while applying pressure...
Father asked, "Sino kayo?"... No answer... He repeated the question "Sino kayo?"... Wala pa rin... He asked again, louder, "SINO KAYO??"...
And at last may sumagot, which froze everyone in shock, boses ng bata... I could tell na ibang tao talaga... Kasi ibang iba...
Malayo sa range ng boses ni Debbie yung voice and it answered "Mama ko po?" "Asan po mama ko?" and Father asked ulit "Sino kayo?"
And ulit ulit yung response ng voice "Asan po mama ko?"... And then as if a switch was flipped biglang...
Pumiglas si Debbie and it took all our strength to keep her down, and bigla siya nagsalita in another woman& #39;s voice...
It was husky, puno ng anger, very menacing and pasigaw niyang sinabi "Amin na & #39;tong mga batang to" "Amin na sila!!"
Tapos sabi ni Father "Nasaan kayo?" tapos di agad sumagot yung voice and after a few seconds sabi "Nasa pinto..." and tang ina tang ina!!!!
Nasa likod ko yung pinto and bigla akong may naramdaman na kakaibang chill sa from behind pero di ako lumingon kasi puta HELLO!?
Tapos biglang sumigaw si Debbie in her voice "Father! Si Janine po! Pupuntahan nila si Janine..." tapos ulit ulit niya sinisigaw yun...
Tapos bigla nagkacommotion sa labas tapos pumunta roommate ni Janine sa amin "Ma& #39;am si Janine po nawawala yung pulse!!"...
Tumakbo palabas adviser namin tapos si Father with more authority this time "DEBBIE NARIRINIG MO BA AKO?" Sumagot si Debbie...
"Opo Father", she was crying. Father said "Nasaan ka ngayon?". Debbie replied "Madilim po dito pero marami po silang nararamdaman ko..."
Then bigla ulit sumigaw si Debbie "Si Fiona pa, nakita ko po yung room nina Fiona, puntahan niyo po sila", pinuntahan sila nung RVM sister..
It turns out bigla nagchill si Fiona and out of nowhere tumaas yung temp niya. So as if a desperate measure Father said something in Latin..
And nagulat ako hinubad ni Father yung Cross na suot niya, yung pectoral cross niya (not sure) and sinuot niya kay Debbie...
And bigla nawalan tumigil iyak ni Debbie and it was as if she fell deep in sleep. And Father said "That should be okay for now..."
After that, Fiona felt better & nagstabilize ulit breathing ni Janine tho unconscious pa rin. All of us gathered sa 2nd floor corridor...
And then umakyat si Father and the RVM Sister, then sabi ng adviser namin "Guys please gather dito sa may dulo ng corridor...
And kahit sabi nila wag magpanic we were all spooked! Father was carrying an incensor tapos kasama niya assistant niya and the RVM Sister...
And he started incensing the whole corridor and every room. Tapos dahil malapit sa amin si Kim, (which we know na may 3rd eye), we asked...
"Uy may nakikita ka ba?" tapos tumango siya and she said, "Kapag lalabas sila ng room may nakasunod na black smoke tapos parang mawawala..."
And after that pinatulog na kaming lahat and syempre siksikan sa corridor at mga rooms... END OF DAY 1...
DAY 2: Nagising na kaming lahat for breakfast and nag-gather sa may parang dining hall... Tapos bumaba na rin si Janine and Debbie...
Akay sila ng mga bestfriends nila kasi parang nabugbog daw pakiramdam nila. Sobrang bigat and sobrang sakit ng katawan...
No one dared asked ano naaalala nila from last night. We were told not to... And after breakfast nagprep na and the sessions went on...
So alam naman natin sa retreat uso yung pinapaiyak kayo... And may activity where we had to talk about our biggest regrets...
And nung turn na ni Debbie she was so emotional sabi niya "...My biggest regret was that hindi ako naging enough sa parents ko..."
"Kaya alam ko iniisip niyo sipsip ako sa teachers pero I had to gusto ko lang maging masaya yung parents ko na anak nila ako..."
She was crying really hard. So after her turn nagpatulong siya to the CR, she went with Paivi... Everything was fine until we heard it...
"MA& #39;AM!!!!" may malakas na sigaw galing sa labas ng hall so tumakbo kami para icheck what happened... And there it was...
