Thump. Thump, thumping. No longer taking it Jane searched the new bought house for the source of the thumping but found nothing. In the last room of the house Jane still found nothing until a ghostly figure appeared.
Jane, who is usually not that quiet, stared at it trying to figure out if she was dreaming, when the ghostly figure came closer to Jane. "Human girl if you intend to live here, this room is off limits and or you must help me or else.." Jane just looked at the ghost bewildered, "or else I'll drive you crazy until you move away." Jane, still unsure if she was dreaming nodded in agreement.
For a few days the unnamed ghost appeared around Jane, looking at her fascinating collection of things. And Jane also realised she was not dreaming that day either.
Years had passed since Jane and the ghost, Connie met that they became accustomed to each other, as if they were family or very good friends.
One day out of the blue another ghost appeared but unlike Connie was shadowy and unable to see it's face. "Connie it's time to go." Connie stared at both the shadowy ghost and Jane. "I'm the reaper who appears to ghosts who learns what they're missing or are at peace." For a moment it was quiet until Connie spoke up "reaper I wish to stay with my friend." The reaper was about to exclaim when Jane said "you must go with the reaper. You wanted this for a long time and humans can disappear without a notice. In time when I die you better meet me with the reaper." Connie if alive be crying but nodded, "good bye friend. I'm ready reaper, let's go." And in a blink of an eye both the reaper and Connie disappeared.
Jane who saw them disappeared both seemed surprised and sad, seeing the reaper and her ghost friend disappear.
