"Do you believe in ghost, Aiko?" It immediately caught my attention. I sarcastically look at him.
"I know you wouldn't" he added. I took a wide smile to show that I am eager to heard more about those things.
Almost all my classmates is avoiding charles for being this weirdo and nerdy thingy. He always talked about seeing ghost and whatsoever. Sometimes, I got being irritated when he wants to started talking about those things. He is my close friend so I am always with him. After school, we are join together riding back home because our house is near to each other but not so much near.
His house is nearest than mine but most of the time he use to accompany me to my house before he will return home.
we are here in our school cafeteria to take some snacks. And as always, many students laughing at him when they walk across him. He suddenly turn his emotion from being silly to sad. And as always, I am the one who give motivation and cheer up messages to him to not minding them.
After PE, we went to the bleacher to sit and relax after those hardships physical exercises.
"Do you actually believe if I say that I am seeing ghost?"
There he is again.
"you know what charles, it would be better if you will stop saying nonsense things like that. Cause you know they making fun of you because of being weirdo. I guess, you must stop writing horror story for a mean time because I think it would help you to be you know. " I explained.
He loves writing horror stories and it became his hobby for a long time. It's almost been five years since he always tell that he is actually seeing ghost. There are times he will suddenly be quiet for a couple of minutes and then after he will says that he just saw soul of the ghost. And honestly, I've become used to it but sometimes I can't avoid having a goosebumps every time he talks about it.
"I guess you're like the others. You didn't believe in me."he sadly exclaimed.
" don't be angry, I am just telling the truth" I added.
He hurriedly walk out. I know that he's mad at me again.
I ran towards him. I grabbed his shoulder to face me off.
"wtf! Stop being like this!"
"stop being what?!!"
I got shocked when he started raising his voice tone.
"you know what I mean."
"NO!!"
"why? Is there a problem that I can help?"
"you can tell me. I am your friend, remember?" I added. I tried to seduce him to tell me what's wrong.
I saw in his face the angry and disappointed. I just felt pity for him when I saw him like that.
"Cause when I do that, I wouldn't be able to see her again!!" he shouted again.
"why?!" Now, I can say that I'm a bit curious.
I started a goosebumps. Cold sweat are now starting to fall to my face.
I started becomes nervous.
"cause you're the ghost that I'm actually seeing Aiko. You died five years ago by car accident. And I love you. So even though people will laugh at me and make fun of me, that's fine as long as you're with me. And most importantly is that we are happy"
Flashback suddenly come up to my mind. It really hits me knowing and realizing the truth.
I can't move suddenly because of what I heard from him. I immediately look at my body at his phone camera but I can't see myself from it. So I am the reason why people make fun at him and call him weirdo.
I'm a curse to him.
