THE LITTLE GHOST. part 1

THE LITTLE GHOST.

part 1

I moved into this new apartment last night.

Few hours after I had moved in my things I noticed foot steps right behind my window. I peeped through but I  found no one. Then I laid back to sleep.

 I opened my eyes all of a sudden and then I saw a little girl standing right in my bedroom close to my bed. 

''Jesus! '' I screamed.

 I jerked up, trembling. I ran towards the door and managed to open it, and then I ran outside straight to my landlord's flat.

 I told him there was a little girl right in my bedroom. 

''Little girl bawo?!" He exclaimed staring with disbelief.

Then he stood up from the couch,and headed to my flat while I followed from behind. He threw open my door and went straight into my bedroom but I was too sc@red to go with him  so I stood by the door. 

''Aah, little girl ke when we don't have children in the compound?  You must have woken up from a bad dream'' he said with a Yoruba accent.

''Baba, I'm sure of what I saw. She was standing right in that bedroom' I replied him, peeping.

''It must have been a bad dream o jare. Little girl from where? '' Baba said leaving my room. 

''With all these your muscles you're still afraid of things you imagined or must have dreamt of. I did not even wash my hand before following you, now you allowed me follow you here leaving the Eba and Orunla (okro) I was enjoying''. Baba murmured while leaving my flat.

''I didn't know you were eating, sorry sir''  I said to Baba who was already on his way to his flat. 

Then he paused and looked back

 ''How would you know? '' He replied, then proceeded. 

I was too sc@red to go into the  bedroom. I  raised my bedroom curtains and then peeped through but there was no one inside. For a minute I thought of picking my phone from the bed but how?  

I made the sign of the cross then walked in slowly to pick up my phone. I went in successfully but the door got slammed all of a sudden, locking me in. I tried opening it but no way. And then I looked back and there the little girl was, standing right on the same spot. 

''Babaaaa! Babaooooo!!''  I screamed at the top of my voice calling on the landlord, trying to force the door open.

She raised her hand and I found myself up with my head touching the ceiling, she brought down her hand all of a sudden and then I landed on the floor, I went on my knees immediately. 

''Please, please don't k!ll me'' I begged. 

''Shut uppppppp!!! '' She yelled and then continued. 

':My name is Ariana, and this was my room. ''

':Your room? Please I will move out, I don't want to stay again.'' I begged her with my shaky voice, waving both hands.

''Too late! '' She exclaimed with a frowned face.

''Please what do you want? '' I queried still shivering. 

''Well, nothing much, don't be sc@red. I need you to do three things for me. First, you'll help rescue my daddy from the Kidn@ppers den. Second, my grandma is in the village suffering, she needs to be taken care of. And third, you'll help avenge me and my grandpa's de@th. After all these then I'll leave you alone for life.''

''How? You're a ghost?? yeepa!'' I exclaimed with popped eyes,  with my hands on my head.

"Please, I'm neither a police officer nor a soldier. I'm just a soft boy working on the internet to earn a living. '' I added with my trembling voice. 

''That's Your business! I give you 72 hours to think about all I've said,I'll come back after then.'' She paused and  smiled, then continued.

"Don't even think of running away. The day you make that attempt will be your last day''

':Aah!!!'' I exclaimed 

Then she disappeared right before my very eyes.

I hurried to my Bible and grabbed it, and the little girl reappeared again. 

''That was where I kept my teddy bears, your bed shouldn't be there. Move it from there to that corner''  She said Pointing at the corner then she disappeared again. 

To be continued!
