Night at the Old House

                            When you are a kid, you're not sure if you are choosing the right decision. you're not a hundred percent sure if you're on the good side. There are times that you don't manage to be lucky, sometimes a decision might lead to a disaster or worse, it can be life threatening.
                             When I was about nine or ten years old, I was the type of kid who always got the last laugh because I was a little bit tricky that time.This childhood event happened in December. Three days before Christmas, it was freezing cold in Sagada."Hey, let's play truth or dare," my older cousin said scornfully. "Why not", we all agreed.
                            The game started excitedly and coincidentally the bottle pointed at me to spin it first, it stopped spinning and it pointed to my bigger cousin and she asked me "truth or dare?" and I already said "dare", I was curious of what my cousin would be thinking about but for sure she is thinking something harsh.
                 Two minutes passed by and she uttered "because you have made my life a carnival, I will make yours a living hell". 
                   I immediately said "Well, bring it on then I won't change my mind even if i have to cut my hands off". 
                   She made a Devilish grin and said "You'll sleep a night in the Old House.
                   " When she said the Old House my heart pumped rapidly like it was going to burst out of my chest and she said "Backing out, you little wimp."
           " a look alike of our Old House in Sagada"
                   
                       Because I didn't want to be called a wimp I still accepted the dare, so I had a night in the Old House that I almost died in there. So after the night passed I won the dare, and also it gave me a lesson to think twice before making a final decision.
