my unforgettable experience



Lilo-an is the home town of my mother and my lola is also living there. When we was a child we always having a vacation there with my cousins. One time we were playing in the big mango tree near the house of my lola. We were all shock when my cousin was disappear that time. My sister was calling my lola which is there in her small house who was making lunch for us. We find my cousin in that day but when we arrive home we see her smiling at the front of the door. We are all shock when we see her.. When we are all there my lola ask her if where he came from she said came from the mango tree.           

When we are all gather to take the suffer my lola was telling not to came back and go with somebody inside the mango tree because she will never be back in the land. But the day goes by my cousin did not listen to my lola and she come back to the mango tree. But then she realize what my lola said and she never ever talk to that somebody in the mango.            

Months came we notice that the face of my cousin is not in the form of human creature that's why we do prayers for her but its not effective. My aunt decide to bring her into the "Quack doctor" but when we are passing by a mango tree she will be shouting and she is very strong. But this tragedy of my family was gone and pass by with us. Now she was okay and she is now at Australia.
