"Yeah mom.. I got here safe, I'm gonna call you back later tonight, I just gotta put away a few things." Onika sighed walking through her newly purchased home.

"Bye love you too." She then cut the call placing her phone on the empty countertop looking through the kitchen, before walking in the direction of the living room.

It wasn't like she hadn't already seen the house before purchasing it, but it was a virtual tour, so now that she was here she wanted to see and inspect every little detail of the house.

She lived in NY all her life, so moving over to Houston was a big change in her life, she'd come here to escape the whole New York city lifestyle to a more quiet country you know... vibe.

Walking into the single bedroom, she couldn't help but notice a few things out of place. When she'd dropped her suitcases on the bed, she'd seen the bedside lamp on the nightstand but now it was on the floor.

She just shrugged it off placing it back in it's original position, before wheeling her suitcases into her walk-in closet to organize.

An hour or so later and she was finally done, wiping the imaginary sweat off her face, she walked back outside the room looking through the windows she'd seen it was getting dark.

Putting on her shoes she decided to go out for a little grocery shopping, she would've taken her car but it hadn't come in yet so she decided to take a long walk.

Not just because but to take a look around the neighborhood too.

"Imma have a snack and go to bed after this I'm so fucking tired!" Nicki whined to herself using her feet to shut the door close as her hands where full of groceries.

Walking into the kitchen, she dropped all the bags on the island, suddenly remembering that she hadn't called her mom back so she picked the phone up walking back into the other room.

"Who in the fuckery!" Onika screamed mistakenly swinging her phone about six feet in the air as she fell back on her ass.

"Who are you?!" She asked seeing a girl sitting melancholy on her bed.

The girl stared at her for a second, walking slowly towards her, the more she came forward the more onika scooted back.

The unknown girl kneeled before her, reaching a hand out in her direction making the shorter woman scream bloody murder.

The taller girl scooted backwards a little in shock, "y-you can see me?" She asked.

"Why the fuck wouldn't I be able to see you, who let you into my house?!" She said anger, shock, fear and a couple of other emotions laced in her words.

"This.. this is my house." the girl said getting back up and walking out the room leaving Onika stunned and regretting buying the house for the cheap price it was offered for.

Onika slowly got up following the taller woman at a safe enough distance, wondering what she was doing moving through her house..

"See? Me." The girl said walking inside the basement pulling out a broken framed family picture from a dirty box.

Onika slowly took it out her hands looking through the picture, there on the picture was a lovely looking family of four they seemed to be at somewhere like the beach.

Onika flipped the picture around seeing a something written on the back, squinting her eyes a little she could finally make out what was written on it- Summer of '79

One of the little girls in the picture looked an awful lot like the woman standing before her.

"See.. my house." The woman said taking the picture out her hands.

"Nothing in the picture says this house belongs to you, so kindly get the fuck off my property!" Onika exclaimed wailing her arms out in defeat.

She'd just gotten here and she didn't need this creep in her house making things worse for her, she had work in the morning.

The woman didn't say anything to her but instead walked past her and up the basement stairs, but it looked a little more like she was gliding.

Looking down towards her leg, she'd seen they were not touching the floor beneath her, now Onika felt her heart thumping in her chest, her breathing increased sporadically and she was feeling dizzy.

She'd just encountered a ghost and she'd spoken rudely to her.. was this how she was gonna die.

Was this the end..

Well I've been thinking of an idea like this for awhile and thought why not give it a try.

Thoughts?

Anyways just a couple of chapters left... 😐😶
