20 years ago, I was born, Maggy, a girl who had no idea what I got myself into. Sometimes I wonder why I'm alive since I'm basically dead, except I haven't died yet. Other people can see me, and I don't look/hear/sound weird but, I don't have a life goal. I barely eat, nothing scares me anymore, not death, not vampires or werewolves. I mean being able to see and talk to ghosts is frightening for a little girl. Imagine a little girl in her room with 3 ghosts, who are scary as ____ talking to her or just existing there, and when that little girl screamed no one believed her. Yea that little girl is me, me, Maggy, a girl with long brown hair tied up in a ponytail most of the time.
On top of that my friends started dying when I was around 16 and I moved away from my family, so making living friends is not something I do anymore. I have my dead friends though, I ask who killed them and they always say "Us ghosts don't remember our deaths." So after a while I just stopped asking. So I'm a 20 year old with basically no, literally, no living friends, and the only socializing I do is when I have to work with someone at work, which is quite uncommon. I live in a house right next to a creepy building. Yea, I know, "remember horror stories and the fact that all your friends are dead. "I know, I know, but guess what? I also know who in the _____ ____ would know me, nobody, they're all dead. Unless there are my parents who live 13 hours away by plane and then 2 hour drive away from me.
So I really have nothing to worry about except the bunker, that is 2 streets down. It's very suspicious. All and all, if someone wants to kill me they can do it easily. I'm walking down the street, with a couple of ghosts following me. To be honest I feel bad for them. I mean they have nobody to talk to except for the people they get paired with to watch a human, but sometimes a ghost is by itself or some ghosts get moved and so talking to people is rare. So the ghosts that get paired with me talk and follow me everywhere. It's good company because they know what goes on in my life and they're also the best teachers. They taught me basically everything I know, I never really paid attention in class. Anyway as I was walking the ghost who was talking stopped in mid sentence and whispered, even though no one can hear them.
"Don't turn around but someone in a black hoodie is following us."
I don't stop nor do I turn around. I keep on walking and I whisper because people can hear me "How long and since when?"
I ask, sometimes people don't follow you on purpose but it is still weird. I mean what creep follows you "Since you left the house."they say back.
*now that's suspicious* I think. They really are a creep huh, I now start to do something I know isn't the smartest thing to do but running is out of the question, I would rather be kidnapped then run, giving someone the clue that I know they're following me. I turn around and calmly walk towards the person they stop, probably don't know what to do, not to social I guess or maybe.....Nope don't have a clue on what they're doing. But I have to do something, So I do what I do when I talk to ghosts "hello, you seem lonely, why don't you walk with me" *WHAT AM I DOING AHHHH* Then they started acting really, really weird, like shaking their head around and fidgeting with their fingers around, *weird*. "Hey, if you aren't comfortable we don't have to, I'm sorry-"
"NO, I mean no I-It's....Ok...Y-yea ok umm heh" the person says
"Alright, where are you headed" I say *that is someone who doesn't go out or talk to people if I've ever seen one which I'll be honest I haven't but that's besides the point*
"ummmm....No were in prectular" they say back, we started walking in complete silence. It is awkward but I don't care. Then they break the silence "Hey, um what's your name?" they ask
"Maggy, how about you?" I say to keep the conversation going.
"I-Ivo, It's a name my f-father came up with I-I really don't know why, something about it being an u-uncommon but an E-english name."
