One night, I felt very tired so I came back to Uncle Foom's house and went to sleep. My eyes opened and I was back at the farm where Npaim showed me. It was night time and everything was very dark. All you can see was trees houses. I looked around me and wondered where I was at. Just then, I heard Npaim crying as I see her ghostly figure slowly approaching in front of me. "Kub, why are you so mean and evil. I love you so much but you're over here talking to other girls and having fun. Do you know how many times you broke my heart?" Npaim says. I tried to talk but my mouth couldn't move at all. Npaim's skin starts to rot just like before as her tongue starts growing longer and longer. Her eyeballs popping out as she slowly walks towards me. "Kub~~ Kub-ah~~ " She says as her voice starts to get deeper and her tone starts to lower more and more as she raises her arms at me like a zombie. Her hair starts getting very messy. I was so scared but I couldn't move at all. I tried to scream but no one was there to hear it. I finally broke free and ran in the opposite direction. I ran as fast as I could but I can hear her voice echoing in the distance getting closer and closer. "Kub~~ Don't run from me~~ I thought you said you love me." I ran and ran but I noticed that in front of me, it was the same tree from before where I was standing. I then realized that I was in a loop. I stopped in my tracks to look around but couldn't see anything because it was nighttime and everything was pitch black. Just then, I saw a figure hanging from above me. I looked at the figure and it was Npaim. She was dead, hanging from the tree and her eyes were wide open. I screamed and ran again. My eyes opened and I was back at Uncle Foom's house sleeping. My hair was in a big mess and I was sweating like crazy. Without thinking, I ran into Uncle Foom's room before I started crying and begging him to help me. I told about my dream and there was a ghost following me. There was nothing he could do other than his shaman stuff so I started setting up his shaman table and stuff for him to do it. It was now 5 AM in the morning. After he was done, He tied a string on my hand and started saying some spell stuff before spitting water at me. He told me that I can't go back home yet or else the ghost girl will follow me back and he won't be able to be there to help so he told me to stay longer so me and Blong agreed since we got nothing to do and we already found love over here. I called my parents to let them know about it and they were ok with it.
