It's already late at night and we are still awake and because of the pandemic, we are stuck inside our house. My sister, she is a 5 years old kid, playful and very naughty.
"Can I borrow your phone?"-kid
"I'm using it"- older sister
"Please, I don't have anything to do, it's so boring"-Kid
"Let's just watch some tiktok videos"-older sister
I opened my YouTube and search tiktok trends, mostly it's a dance so in every song my little sister dance while I watch her.
"Sister, can you do this?"-Kid
She start dancing again on the beat. I'm watching with a little annoyed because she is loud and naughty. She look at the window, we usually tie our curtains so you can see the windows. She suddenly sat down and stay silent. I was shocked when she whispered something.
"The old man is here again, I'll just continue dancing when he leave"-Kid
I looked at her, trying so hard not to show that I'm scared, there are many thing running in through my mind, all I know is that I'm scared to look in our window, and I'm also thinking that someone is stalking us. I also don't know if I should believe what I heard from my little sister or not. Beside we have a dog outside, she will surely bark if someone came in, but I suddenly remember my sisters word "The old man is here AGAIN" so maybe our dog is already familiar with him. I also remember that our gate is already locked so how can he come in? This are the thoughts inside my mind.
Yes, I'm scared but I'm curious, is it funny if I say that I'm already planning of what to do if someone really break into our house? but yeah, And you know what scares me more? My dad is not at home, there are only 2 boys in our house, my little brother, he is 15 years old and my cousin, he is 18 years old. Although I'm scared, I still got a courage to look at our window and I can feel my heart beating so fast.
There is no one when I looked at the window and I'm very relief after knowing that no one is in there. I looked at my sister and I can tell that she is scared, I give her my phone so she will be distracted. I'm overthinking, yes it's bad but I just really can't stop. I stood up and checked our window again, but this time I also check outside by observing only. Because I still don't have the courage to go out. Then I suddenly think about a ghost, but I don't think that my sister can see ghost.
"It's already late, you need to sleep"Older sister
"I'm still not sleepy"-Kid
I get my phone back and bring my sister to my parents room, my sister usually sleep with my parents because she always cry when my mom is not beside her. My mom believe in ghost or should I say that my whole family believe in ghost.
My sister fell asleep, and I told my mom everything, she said that she will talk to my sister, I went to my room and also sleep because it's so late.
The next day, I forgot about it, just like a usual day. Then night comes, I went to my parents room, I always go to my parents room, I don't know why but my parents room is the most comfortable room for me, maybe because they are in there. I remember my dad will always tell us that he will buy a very big bed so we can sleep together because we are always in their room. Then I suddenly remember about what happened last night. I secret asked my mother about it because I don't want to scare anyone.
"Ma, so what is it true?"-older sister
"What do you mean?"-Mom
"About what happened last night"-Older sister
"I think your sister can see it"-Mom
we are avoiding to name it or mention it, because my sister is in the same room with us.
"Did she tell you what she saw?"-older sister
"Yes, she said that the old man that she often see, doesn't have a head"-Mom
Hearing those words, I got scared, my heart beats so fast, I suddenly hold my mom's arm.
"Ok, let's stop this, I don't want to hear anything anymore"-Older sister
"Why are you so scared sister? that old man is our grandpa"-Kid
I was confused, I looked at my mom
"I told her that it's her grandpa so she will not be scared"-Mom
"Ohhh ok"-older sister
I looked at my sister and she was laughing, she said that I shouldn't be scared with my grandpa. My mom is worried.
"Ok listen, if you saw him again, just ignore him ok? you can't talk to him"- mom
"But why mom? isn't he my grandpa?"-Kid
"Yes but just don't talk to him, because"-Mom
My mom don't know how to say it, that once she talk to them, more ghost will come, that's what my grandparents say's in my father side.
"Just don't talk to them ok?"-Mom
"But why?"--Kid
"If you talk to him, he will invite more, then our house will be full that we can't fit, do you want that to happen?"-Mom
"no"-Kid
"then you shouldn't talk to him ok?"-Mom
"ok"-Kid
