"Ahmm.. miss. I am so sorry... I have to go now... Good luck!"
Aiden said as he hurriedly tried to pick his duffel bag that was left lying on the ground.
But just when his hand was about to touch the bag, the lady at the bus stop also tried to grab him.
"Wait!!!! Hold on...."
She exclaimed and she hurriedly tried to grab the air where Aiden used to be standing.
Good thing that Aiden had good reflexes and he managed to sidestep on that last crucial second, allowing him to dodge the lady on the right timing.
If it was not for that, the weird lady would have probably gotten a hold of him by now.
Now that Aiden could no longer determine whether he was actually talking to a ghost or a psycho, there was certainly no way that he would allow the other party to touch him.
Strictly no more touching.
Regardless if she was a ghost or a living person.
Better safe than sorry.
Noticing that the other party seemed to be visually impaired, Aiden tried to use it to his advantage.
He walked away from the bus stop as quiet as possible, putting a safe distance between him and the blind lady.
It was only when he was already a few meters away from the weird lady did Aiden heaved a sigh of relief.
But his relief did not last long because to his dismay, he soon found out that he actually left his duffel bag next to the weird lady!!!!
"The heck!!!"
And since Aiden has never been in the good graces of Lady Luck ever since in from the beginning of time, when he looked back to check his bag, he saw that the blind lady was already approaching it.
She was blindly walking towards its direction with both of her arms stretched forward, trying to grab the space before her, just like how a blind person would walk whenever she was lost in the track.
"No. no. no... please! Go to the other way. Turn to the other side, not in that direction... Please, don't let her stepped on my bag..."
Aiden chanted silently as he watched in batted breath how the weird lady walked slowly towards his bag.
But just when the right foot of the weird lady was about to hit his bag, she suddenly halted her steps and stood motionless before the bag instead.
"Err??? What is she doing????"
Aiden asked himself in confusion.
But before he could even satisfy his curiosity, the weird lady slowly turned her head to where Aiden was currently standing.
Then she tilted her head in an awkward manner making her sunglasses dangle on her face.
Revealing her pair of empty eye sockets!!!
And as if she wanted to up the notch of spooking Aiden, the lady in the bus stop smiled at him in an 'oh-so-freaky-way'
It is confirmed!!!!
She was definitely a ghost!!!!
"There... You... Are..."
The blind ghost mouthed slowly in a haunting way and with a speed as fast as a bolt of lightning. her body started to contort into weird angles that were so painful to watch.
The scene that unfolded before Aiden was exactly how it was depicted in the horror movie "The Grudge" whenever the ghost was about to chase after someone.
"Holy cow!"
That was the only phrase that Aiden managed to utter before he started to run for his dear life because apparently, the blind ghost that was haunting the bus stop also started to chase after him!
Aiden ran as fast as his feet could take him, not daring to slow his pace even for once.
He made a lot of sharp turns and passed different cross paths.
Aiden also crossed several blocks and took different alleys hoping to shake the ghost away from his trail.
But to his surprise, the blind ghost was still able to catch up with him despite crawling on all fours.
One second she was still quite a distance away from him, but on the next moment, she was already closing the distance between them!
The blind ghost was spookily fast!
"The heck! why can't you slow down for a second??! This is so unfaaaaaair!!!!!!"
Aiden tried to pick his pace, but so the ghost was!
