PULANG SAYA



This story is from my grandmother that passed away several years ago. We are still living in an ancestral house at Tanza, Cavite and the house is really old. The architectural design was inspired by Spanish era with capiz slide windows and marble staircase. We also have a mini-garden at the back of our house filled with greenery. We have lots and lots of plants and trees growing in our backyard. 
In the backyard we have a small nipa hut where we stay to relax or take our snack during hot afternoons. According to my grandmother she was outside the house gathering washed clothes from the clothesline around 6 o’clock pm. Then she noticed someone is at our backyard wearing white shirt and red skirt. My grandmother was a certified obnoxious so seeing someone trespassing our property and it would definitely get her attention. She decided to come closer and take a look closer to identify the lady in red skirt. She noticed that the lady is dancing back and forth in a silent music that as if she’s the only one that can hear. Then finally she decided to confront her but as she walks closer to the figure she noticed rather unusual. Her face cannot be identified as if it is blank, her white shirt is covered in blood, and the most shocking feature of the lady in red skirt is that her feet is not touching the ground. Then suddenly the lady in red skirt finally noticed that my grandma is there all of a sudden she vanishes in thin air. Some of neighbors claimed that they also saw the lady in red skirt in our backyard.
