SHE IS A GHOST

#Episode_7
đ Stellaâs POV
I was walking around on the eleventh floor, leaving Mr handsome after he left to his office. I disappeared and reappeared at a floor I donât know. I walked slowly looking around as people walks to and fro the company. I got to a place and saw some beautiful ladies dancing. On seeing them, I went into the door looking at them as they move. âWow. I love thatâI said moving my head to the beat. As I continue looking at them and moving my b©dy, a memory flashed to my head again.
âȘ*memory*
Some girls were in group gossiping. The way they dressed showed they just finished a dance practice or were about starting. I saw myself sitting beside a girl. She has a long fringe hair while I had a short black hair tied in a ponytail. The way both of us were sitting, it shows we could be sisters or best friends.
I heard what those girls were saying but I ignored them pretending I donât.
âSheâs so full of herself. I donât know why Debbie hang around with her. Sheâs just acting like her dog or should I say handbag?âa girl said laughing. They all laughed out loud.
âSheâs not the only better one here. Why must she be the only one all the time? We can perform better tooâanother girl said.
I looked at the girl beside me and she smiled in-serting one air peace into my ear to st©p me from hearing those annoying voices. I smiled back at her nodding my head.

â©*reality*
This memory was clear to me. The girl sitting beside me looks so familiar but the more I tried to remember her, the more ha-rd it is to do so.
That means I was a dancer when I was still alive? But why are they gossiping about me? Why do they envy me?âI thought to myself. I walked around in the practice room looking at the girls as they moved.
âJenny st©p!âI heard the choreogra-pherâs voice and I turned around looking at them.
âOoh. Not again. Whyâs she getting it wrong again?âthe remaining girls started complaining looking at her badly. The choreogra-pher walked to a girl. Sheâll be the same age as I. She has a brown skin which made her look more beautiful. But her expression was bad when the choreogra-pher got to her. âThis is the sixth time youâll make the same mistake. If you do it one more time, youâre outâshe said looking at her.
âAm sorry maâshe said in a weak tone. She went back to the front and they started from a point. I was staring at the girl as she moved. She dance well but her moves were a bit slow. When they got to a stage, she made mistake again. âOh why?âI said looking at her. âJenny out.
Meet me after practiceâthe choreogra-pher said. She walked slowly out of the line and went to sit at the back of the practice room a little far from them. I could see how some girls reacted when she left. âBad girls everywhereâI said looking at them.
I walked to where the girl was sitting. She took off the Snickers she was putting on and drank from a bottle beside her. She placed it down and looked up to where I was standing. She has this surprised and scared expression when she looked up at me. She closed her eyes and started reciting something. I was confused at her reaction.
âHey!âI called. She di-pped her hand into her pocket and brou-ght out a chain which looks like a rosary. She continue reciting it with her eyes closed. I tried to t©uçh her but a f0rç£ pushed me back. I staggered back with a f0rç£ which almost land me on the floor.
She opened her eyes staring at me while breathing heavily.

Johnâs POV
I sat in my office pla-ying game on my phone. A lady walks in holding some files in her hand. She looks so h0t and pretty. The Sk-irt she was putting on was so ti-ght and a bit short showing her fresh l@ps. She placed those files on my table smiling at me In a sÂŁdûçt!vemanner. âWow. You look more handsome than I heard about you.âshe said smiling.
Wow they alre-ady talked about me on my first day at work. This is so cool and interesting.âI thought to myself smiling at her. âI was asked to bring this files to you. Anyway my name is Cas-sandra. Am the presidentâs secretary nice meeting youâshe said smiling. âWow what a lovely name. Nice meeting you tooâI said smiling. âI have to go for now. Iâll see you later because I have something to say to youâshe said.
âOh really? Alright am here for you. Cas-sandra.âI said smiling. She turned back and started walking towards the door. Her back side was a hvge one. She has a big S-xy as-s figure. As she walks, her bu-tt swayed right and left to every step she took. My eyes were fixed on her bu-tt as they bounce like sheâs tweaking.
She opened the door and walked out.
I swallowed ha-rd when she left. Before I know it, I was alre-ady standing on my feet. I wonder how I got up from the seat. I sat back on the chair picking my phone from the desk. âCas-sandra. Wow you hit me at the right pointâI said smiling.

â Stellaâs POV
When I balanced on my feet, I was staring at her in confusion wondering what just happened. She was also staring at me holding the rosary in her hand.
I now un-derstand what she just did. I leant some human have something to protect themselves from evil ghosts and evil spirits. I think she was reciting that because she saw me. She thought am an evil spirit or trying to harm her. I was moving closer to her slowlyâJenny. I mean no harm OK. Am not an evil personâI said looking at her. âLeave me alone!âshe screamed on t©p of her voice which attra-cted the rest attention to her.
The music was st©pped as they were all staring at her in confusion. âJenny whatâs it?âthe choreogra-pher asked looking at her. âItâs nothing maâshe replied in a shaky voice. âAre you sure?âshe asked again to confirm. âYes ma.âshe replied.âokay. Lower your voice OKâshe said and they continue. Jenny stood up from where she was sitting and headed out. I followed her and found out she was heading to the bathroom. When she got there, she just went to the tap to wash her face. She looked into the mirror and I guess she could see me throu-gh the mirror because I canât see myself throu-gh the mirror I could only see her. She turned back facing me. âJenny I mean no harm.
I felt bad about how the choreogra-pher sÂŁnt you out back there. I thought you could not see me but I was wrong about that. I mean you no harm.âI said looking at her. âIs that it?âshe said looking at me. I was so happy she responded. I think I made another human friend so quic-k.
âYes. And am happy you responded. I know some pretend they donât see us when they do. Am happy you could respond to me so quic-kâI said smiling. She smiled looking at me. âThanks for your concern.
This is not the first time of been kicked out of practice. I think this is not my path but my mum insisted I must be a dancer. She wants me to be a celebrity just like Debbie Annie, Suzy Mick and many other successful celebrity out there. Isnât that funny? I think sheâs too selfish. She only thought of how she feel not minding what her daughter might feel about it.
Although I also love dancing but I think I canât do any better than this. It makes me want to give up every time am trying to do better but she will never allow that. So funny âshe said smiling.
âReally? Thatâs so bad. But I think your mother want the best for you. You can also be better than those celebrities in future just believe in yourself. Believe you can do it. Every successful human today donât give up on their dreams and ambitions they kept trying and trying till they were able to make it to their goals.
Jenny you can do better. Believe in yourself and keep trying.âI said looking at her.
She nodded her head looking at me. âYouâre such a wonderful person. Thanks for the adviseâshe said smiling.

Johnâs POV
Itâs 6:45pm, I was alre-ady preparing to leave the office. But I think am missing something when I was about leaving. âWhat could I be missing? Whatâs it?âI started thinking ha-rd to remember. âOh yes. The ghost girl. Where could she be?âI said looking around. I st©pped for a while feeling like a nuisance.
âWhy am worried about a ghost? Itâs not like she doesnât know how to make her way home.âI said. I picked my car key from the table and left the office heading out of to the elevator. I walked slowly hoping sheâll pop out to my side as usual but she was not showing up.
âWhat could be happening?âI thought to myself not feeling comfortable.
I got to the elevator and waited for it to open. After a while, the elevator opened. I looked at the person Inside and saw Debbie. I enter and pressed a bu-tton to close it.
âWhy are you leaving this late? Does the person youâre here to see delayed you?âshe asked looking at me. âShould I say that?âI asked smiling. âAre you going home?âI asked her. âYes. I am.âshe replied. âWould you mind if I invite you for a drink?âI asked looking at her.
âReally? That would be great. Am free for nowâshe replied smiling.
The elevator st©pped when it got to the last floor. We both walked out heading to the compound.

âStellaâs POV
By 7:15pm, Jenny and I were walking side by side on the street. I said I wish to walk her home and she was OK by that. I alre-ady told her about how I live my life as a ghost. I told her I was not able to remember how I died too and she also told me about when she started seeing ghosts. Weâre alre-ady close just like Friends. I can see sheâs a simple minded person. Sheâs free spirited and has a soft mind. She got shy when sheâs with people but feel free when sheâs with me. I wonder why she chose to act that way.
âSo, you mean you were also a dancer when you were still alive?âshe asked. âYes. I could remember that.âI replied. She st©pped all of a sudden and started staring at me. âThe more I look at you. You looks so familiar to me. But I canât remember if I saw your face before. Whatâs your name?âshe asked looking at me. âMy name is StellaâI replied looking at her. âI think am wrong. You looks so familiar but I think that name doesnât sound familiar. Maybe I once saw you as a ghostâshe said thinking about it. She continue walking while I also walked beside her.
âI guess you were a good dancer when you were still humanâshe said smiling. âWho knows. Everything is gone now that am a ghost. Itâs uselessâI said.
âIf you were so good, you might be of help to me someday.âshe said smiling. âHuh. How can that be?âI asked looking at her. âI heard some ghosts could possess a human b©dy. Youâll just have to do that for me during my performance. Thatâll be so perfect. I mean if I could be seen by people dancing amazingly.
Thatâll make my mum so happy. And that would make me happy myselfâshe said smiling. âIs that possible?âI asked her. âI donât know. I was just as-sumingâshe said.
âI never possess a human b©dy before. I think thatâs impossibleâI said looking at her. âIt might be and might not. My grandma told me itâs possible. But I never believe in that.âshe said looking at me.
âCould it be true? If I could possess human b©dy, people would be able to see me. I wonât live a lonely life anymore. That would be so good. I think I might also help her. But I think itâs impossibleâI thought to myself. âI can do anything just to be a good dancer. I want to impress my mum on my next performance. She always felt disappointed but this time, am trying my best to make her happy.
Our performance is just four days to go. I donât want to be left out this time too.âshe said looking sad. I felt pity for her but thereâs nothing I can do about that. Should I try possessing her b©dy?âI thought to myself looking at her. But shook my head to snap out of it. âShould I try it?âI thought again but hesitated. She st©pped and faced me smiling.
âWould you give it a try?âshe asked facing me. I was so surprised she knows what Iâve been thinking about. âCan you re-ad my thoughts?âI thought to myself looking at her. âYes I can. I know you wanted to help.
I know youâre not a bad person, that was why I trust you easily at the first place. I can re-ad thoughts so I know what youâre thinking.âshe replied looking at me. My jaw dropped in amazement. âDo you really want me to possess you?âI asked her.
âYou can give it a tryâshe replied standing still. âI never done this before but I prayed it workedâI said looking at her. I closed my eyes and moved closer to her b©dy.
What I felt next was so shocking to me.
