1 Prologue— Scared to Death

Let's start further back before the tragic event happened.

A man from the countryside waved his hand at the oncoming truck, he wanted to hitch on a ride to the closest town which is his hometown. It's because it suddenly started raining and if he decides to walk he would need to spend half an hour before he arrives. The place also has no other transportation at night time so he could only hitch a ride.

"Get in the back, be careful there is a newly bought coffin at the back, don't scratch it." The old driver cautioned.

"Okay." The man nodded

'I guess it doesn't look scary since it's new. My town is still under development, maybe this is the reason they went to the city to buy a coffin.' The man thought after seeing the coffin.

*Swoosh*

The rain started getting heavy, the truck only has a tarpaulin to shelter the man from the rain, and with how heavy the rain is, he started getting drench.

"This coffin is still new, it should be okay to go inside for a bit." The man opened the coffin's lid and went inside to hide from the rain.

Later after that, the old driver found another man waving toward him. "Sigh, kids these days..."

...

Ren who got lost because of the darkness stood at the roadside.

Ren came from the city, he went to the countryside because his friend who lives here invited him.

They were just together about half an hour ago, but they got separated.

His clothes were already wet because of the rain, he got happy when he saw a truck light.

Waving his hand widely, he shouted.

"Hey!"

The truck stopped. Before Ren could even say something, the driver already motioned him to ride at the back.

"There is a coffin at the back, don't scratch it." The old driver warned.

"Yes, I appreciate it old man." He quickly climbed at the back of the truck.

'Fuck! I didn't properly listen to him, but the old man did say there was a coffin.' Ren felt his skin standing when he saw the coffin.

'This coffin looks new, there should be no dead body inside right?' The moment he had that thought the coffin suddenly loosened and a hand stretched out from the inside.

"Ahhhhhh!!!" Ren shouted, quickly jumping out of the truck.

It was a misfortune, as there was another high-speed truck following at the back and he didn't have the time to notice... Ren got hit and died.

Meanwhile.

The man who caused someone's death:

"What was that scream just now? It scared me! I was just checking if it was still raining or not using my hand."
