Baskadia

Chapter 1

Am a ghost! I know I am. For the past three years I have been from street to street without been noticed by any human being except ghost like me. I have no idea of why am still in the human world, ghost are suppose to be in heaven or hell after they die not in human world. it was a boring and tiring moments for me been living on earth as a ghost so lonely and tired. I didn't have any memory of how I did or what was behind my death because am still young.

I was walking down the street where people were moving about, some were smiling and chatting with their friends, some were waiting by the bus stop for the next bus.

While some were walking up and down the street.

It obvious they didn't notice me as some even went through me while working.

When I got to the bus stop among the people standing by the road side, I saw a little boy staring at me, I stopped staring back at him. The boy should be around 11 to 12 years of age. He looks so dirty and rough, he can't possibly see me except if he's a ghost. I wonder if he's saw me or was just staring at something else. "can you see me?" I asked him.

He wasn't responding, all he did was kept staring at me.

I moved closer to him and bent a little to look at him closely " can you see me?" I asked waving my hand before his eyes, he blinded and stared off " Yes I can. And so? he replied

He can really see me? Why? is he a ghost? I thought to myself looking at him strongly.

"Wow! you can saw me. you really saw me. Am so happy you saw me! I said smiling and jumping up happily. He looked at me and made a dull face "Yes I can see you because am a ghost also" he said looking at me. He started moving, leaving me behind I stood there staring at him as he left.

What the hell was that? I was happy for no reason. He's a ghost too.

Am older than you.

Don't be so rude to me like that, I said looking at him as he left.

"Yeah it's normal for ghosts to see ghosts. But why can't a single human see me? Why? I thought some human has the ability to see ghosts. Why is it so hard to find one? Where are they all hiding? I said sadly looking around "Why am I still on earth".

I should disappear from this world, if I have nothing to do with this humans. I got so lonely and sad everyday. What's my purpose for still staying on this lonely earth. "Someone should tell me from up there". I yelled on top of my voice looking at the sky.

Thunder struck from the sky with lightning like its going to rain soon.

As I heard the sound of thunder from the sky, I quickly bent down dodging behind a bench. "I peeped slowly looking up to the sky".

Wow! that really scared me, was I too loud? was he angry at me?

You guys have to go easy on me, you can't kill me twice, OK? I said looking up.

    After a while, I stood up from where I dodged and continue walking, heading to an unknown destination....
