Kyla, the Ghost Hunter

Mystery of the Haunted Tree (chapter six)

I heard of a rumor that there was a ghost that haunted people under the tree at the back of the mansion. I was thinking, could it be Jack? I never saw him out of the mansion so I wasn't unsure. Could there be other ghosts around?

"Lily, what did they say about that tree?" I asked.

"They say that there is a ghost standing under that tree twice a week. It happens every Thursday and Saturday noon." Lily answered.

"So what made them sure it was a ghost?" I added.

"Well, they say it just disappears after a few minutes." Lily said.

"Well then, we'll go there this Saturday to see it." I said.

"Oh no, another ghost hunt?" she asked.

"C'mon Lily, like you don't know me." I uttered.

Saturday came and it was getting dark. We went at the back of the mansion. Lily was hiding behind a bush while I was sitting on the grass, patiently waiting fir the ghost to appear.

After a few minutes, I saw a figure beneath the tree. Yes, it was a ghost. It just appeared from no where. I was eager to know who that was. I became braver since we met Jack so I got closer to the ghost. It was getting clear to me, he was familiar. I shouted, "Jack?!" He looked at me.

"Katherine?" He asked.

I was a bit confused. "I'm not Katherine, its me, Kyla. Have you forgotten?" I said.

"Oh, Kyla, I'm sorry." He said. Then a sudden wind surrounded him and he disappeared.

"Kyla, I saw him! I saw the ghost!" Lily shouted as she was still hiding from afar.

Now, I conclude, Jack could be seen by others during sunset. I just don't know why I'm the only one who could see him clearly at any time.

Another ghost mystery was solved. The ghost of the haunted tree was my friend Jack. I wonder who Katherine is, maybe I should ask him next time.
