Ghost Lover (1)

, "Oppa, please come out now. This is not funny." She is pleading to an unseen person.

That's me.

"Haha...it's a wonder that I actually ended up dating such a timid girl like you?" I started to laugh but managed to stop any noise from escaping my mouth. I don't want my cover to be blown!

Of course she can't see me. I'm hidden.

In fact, the whole surrounding is pitch black and if you scream, no one will hear you. It's an abandoned house. People though it might be haunted.

It's old, falling apart and uncared for. No electricity. No living beings. Well, unless you count those rats and creepy crawlies that live around here. Who wouldn't actually mistaken it for a haunted house.

Those tiny twitching sounds of rats and their scurrying little feet on the cement floor, it can get a bit creepy...if you're a girl. I am a guy so it isn't that scary to me.

I'm in for a little fun here. Seeing her shaking and looking around for me, this is like a live comedy show for me. Practical jokes, my area of expertise.

The light on her torch light is shaky. Like it's experiencing a tiny earthquake except the ground is steady beneath my feet.

Better not let her encounter a mirror or I will have to visit the ear specialist for getting my eardrums busted by her scream.

"Oppa, you can come out now. It's not funny." She is half pleading, half crying now.

I guess the joke will have to stop here or I will find myself girlfriend-less by the end of the joke.

"Is that you, Hye-rin? I'm here. It's alright now." I put on a straight face though I badly needed to laugh out loud.

"You know I hate these kind of dark places yet you think it's cool to date around here."

Ooo...someone's getting grumpy.

A sudden gust of wind blew in the house. I shivered a bit but tried to hide it as best as I could. I could feel her shivering body next to me. She is still shaking a little from the joke just now.

I looked around us but the curtains...or rather what's left of the curtains...are not showing any signs of wind ever passing them. That's weird.
