Ahmya tried to look back trying to figure who it was . The feeling that she had of being watched was not a simple one.She felt a dead silence around hear. She had never heard such silence which was full of creepiness which made her even more uncomfortable.
She was now pretty sure that she was in big trouble ...A VERY BIG TROUBLE !!!!! Then she felt a cold handed touching on her shoulder. Now she was even more scared then before . A nasty chill ran in her spine. She taught it was hopeless to do something now .
Suddenly the atmosphere around her became gloomy. She held up a little courage and looked back and after that she was horrified to see that .
Behind her stood KUCHISAKE ONNA!!!!! Her mouth was coverd with a mask. Wearing a mask in Japan is quite common. She covered her hands over mouth of the poor girl and dragged her more inside the alley. She took her a place which was isolated. The girl tried her best to defend herself but in vain. Her efforts could not become successful . Afterall how could a little girl could fight with a mighty ghost. Then tried to bite her hand and because of this she let the girl go.
But it was too late, Kuchisake onna grabbed her hand in complete force and after that there was a complete silence for a few moments . Kuchisake Onna broke the silence by asking.....
" Am I beautiful?"
As she had a mask to cover her mouth ... her eyes were indeed pretty and she had the perfect nose which resembled like that of a doll. So the girl confidently said that she was beautiful. And after that the ghost removed her mask and asked again.....
"Now am I beautiful??"
The girl was dumbstruck and felt like was going to throw up. She didn't had words to describe her. She innocently said ,.
"No you are not and you are even worst than ugly"
The ghost was soo frustrated that she removed a big scissor from coat' s pocket and without even thinking twice she cut the neck of the girl.
So.. from that day onwards this incident spread like wild fire. Thus the small school students always went in groups to school which had a elder who accompanied them.
So if you come across such ghost then...
You should not make the mistake of saying "you are beautiful"
If you says so then the ghost will cut your mouth like hers and will say that
" Now you are also beautiful like me"
INSTEAD you should say that you look "normal" or "average" which will give you time to flee.
