Chapter 2- I'm not a Ghost

I heard the kid shout at me so loud saying I am a ghost.

"Hey, kid I'm not a ghost... I'm just special." I said and smile.

The mother of the child grabs his hands and move away. I need to get use to people looking at me like I am a ghost. If I am a ghost then I can be Chasper the friendly ghost.

"Hey, do you like something?" The food truck vendor asked me.

"I'd like 3 champions..." I said.

"Are you sure you can finish it?" The man asked me.

"Of course, I can and I'm not eating alone." I said and look to Dan and Thea beside me.

"Hi! Dan... Hi! Thea..." The man said and wave at them.

" Hi! Uncle Frank... " The kids smile and wave back to him.

" Are you family?" I asked looking curious at them. If they're family then why is he letting this kids begging for food.

" No, but they're late father is my coworker at the army. I want to help them but I also don't have money to feed the two of this. I have family too." Frank said and I see sadness in his eyes I know his telling the truth.

"Can you be my Uncle too?" I asked.

"Don't you want to be my daughter? I have a son." He said making a joke at me.

"Nahh... I love being single." I said and smile.

"Ahh my son is unlucky... she won't have a pretty girlfriend." He said and he ruffles his son's hair.

"I'm sure your son will find one." I said making a glance at his son. His son looks cute with his long hair.

After a while the burger is cooked I thought it is just small because they all look small on the picture but it is really big that I can't finish this. The burger smells so good that you can really smell the onions and the patty.

I only pay 2 dollars for the three burger and I also leave an extra tip for his family. I can't really believe that the food here is so cheap that my money in my wallet can never make me starve for life. I don't need to much money to waste in this place.

We take a sit in the near fountain it's clean very one in this place is neatly arrange from plants to houses. I wish I'm not in my silly dreams again. I pinch myself and it hurts so this means this is real. I take a big bite of my burger and in my mouth I feel like my taste buds are having it's own little party. Patty is not so greasy and tasty and the cheese is melting in my mouth and the onions are making the burger a little bit spicy.

After eating and chatting, me and the children part our ways. They go to there house and I get back to my car. When I reach in my car I see a bunch of boys looking at my car snapping pictures. I know it's bad driving a Lamborghini anywhere it gets to much attention but this is only car under my name, I can't drive the Toyota it's under my brother's name and I can't get arrested for driving a car that isn't mine.

"Hey! can you move aside please." I said and walk near me.

"Why would we do that?" The guy with a blonde hair asked.

"Because I asked you to." I said with a little bit of sassy.

" How dare you asked us to move? This is my car!" He said and look at me badly.

" Your car then how is the key with me? " I said and turn on the alarm on my car.

" Were wrong sorry. " He said and they back out from my car.

I get inside the car and I hear them talking about me. Who cares what they think about me. I wish I won't ever see one of them but I guess I would bump into someone.

I drive the car around the city looking for a hotel or some apartment for rent. But this city doesn't have vacant hotel rooms or there hotels are just so small. I parked my car in the alley I'm just going for a walk to look some inns or apartments that is available.

I randomly see a poster that says apartment for rent. I call the number in the poster and they accept me as a tenant even though it is already 10:00 pm.

I look for the place and see the apartment. I hurried and talk to the owner.

"Hi! I just call about a minute a go." I said and smile.

"Ahh...you're the young lady that I am talking earlier." The owner said.

"Yes,Do you still have vacant apartment? " I asked.

" Actually this apartment building is just newly renovated so the apartments here are not so full. " He answered.

" How's going to live in the apartment? " He asked. He looked at me with curiosity.

" I am... the one who is going to rent your apartment. " I said and his eyes widen then he chuckles.

" You, kid this apartment is E-X-P-E-N-S-I-V-E... expensive." He said and spelled the word expensive in my face. How rude of him. Does this guy think that I can't afford paying the rent it maybe just cost me a couple thousand dollars per month. For me it's just cheap don't forget I live in a mansion before.

"Don't you worry old man I can pay for it. Does this apartment have parking lot? " I asked and give back the rudeness he just have me. I don't want to be rude but he just gave me the attitude that I don't like.

" You know how to talk Miss and Yes we have parking lot inside. " He said then he beeps the key card he is holding.

The huge gate automatically opened. The inside is so spacious and it looks like a hotel with plants and vines crawling in the wall. It have a lots of plants but they don't look like a jungle. It even looks like a paradise a valley of plants to be exact.

"Can I have that apartment?" I said and point in the second floor the last apartment from the right. It probably have a very nice view from there to look at the plants.

"Sure, but that apartment have 3 bedrooms." He said.

"Then I'll get it." I said without hesitation.

"Does anyone live in here? it looks like no lives here." I asked him while looking at the surroundings it so peaceful, not just peaceful it feels like a cemetery kind of peaceful.

"Don't you worry the first floor is full and the second floor have 3 tenants already." He said. The building is up to 3rd floor I'm afraid there's a ghost there.

" Okay, you said so. Give me the contact I'll sign it now because I want to move immediately." I said.
