Ghost-full Episode 29 author-slickest Suddenly, the scratching and the knocking stopped, it stopped in front of our ward, Thank God the door is locked.. I thought, I knew nothing could come in except it har the keys, I shakily went back to my bed and stared at the door, I noticed the door handle was moving a little downwards like someone was holding it on the outside, suddenly it stopped moving and went back to its normal position. I waited for minutes but there were no more movements or sounds outside the ward still I found it hard to calm down, my heart was still beating like a small talking drum which I knew would calm down in no time. Minutes later, I stood up and walked to the window where I could see the streets lights of the beautiful lagos city, cars still moved but wasnt same like the day time, the sound they made was very audible as they sped by quickly one after the another, the intervals took long before another vehicle passed by. It was a beautiful view from where I stood, the ward I was in was high up the mental home allowing a broader view of the environs. My eyes picked a figure standing in the centre of the highway, it was standing under a faulty traffic light with its face turned towards the ground it was on a white garment, an on coming car screeched trying to avoid the figure that looked like a her, she did not make a move like she intentionally wanted to get hit, the vehicle did not after avoiding her it just took off at a high speed. I got interested in the scenario and got closer to the window, I heard another car approach but it passed her leaving comment u don mad, commot for road!!!. as he drove past her, she did not look at the vehicles that avoided her nor respond to any comment, all she did was stood still and faced her head to the ground. I noticed patients in the mental home dont dress in white long garments, if its white its short but may be the females wear it I further thought because the only female I sighted here was a nurse and she wasnt dressed in a white garment, I stared at the lady across the road from my high placed ward, no driver seemed to alight to correct her strange positioning. Cars kept dashing beside her raining curses and heading to their destination, I got angry and felt like shouting get of the road sick head but I couldnt because she wouldnt even hear if I did because of the distance between us....not long, a bike approached and shouted from the distance he sighted her, commorr for rooad..morrfor rooad!!! He screamed as he rode past her stretching his left hand towards her face to grace her with a slap so may be sheld get back to her right senses, he hit her on the face but she did not move an inch from where stood...I thought a hit on motion was supposed to at least shake or take her to the ground but no it did not, she stood as if nothing touched her.....the hit had no effect. Seconds after the man on the bike did what he thought was the right thing, I heard a very loud crash and immediately traced it with my pupil, all I saw was the bike man flying off his bike, he hit his head on one the metal street lights and his bike dashed off scratching the ground. I saw particles flinged out of his head as he hit the ground with so much momentum...my heart kicked faster as I quickly searched with my eyes for the possible cause of this strange accident, there was nothing, no portholes....nothing was on the tarred ground that could have obstructed the poor mans movement. His body laid helplessly on the ground as the lights from other polls glared on his body, blood poured out of his head like an open pipe. The lady in white walked to his body and stood beside him, the light glowing on them went off while the one she initially stood under blinked and came back on. At this time, I was covered in fear because she sure wasnt mad...she stood beside him staring at his corpse as she kept turning her neck left and right. Oh God.. I whispered, she suddenly stopped and raised her head forward....she suddenly looked up in my direction string me straight in the eye......quickly I moved away from the window breathing heavily, suddenly the scratching on the walk way started again and was very loud this time...a heavy bang hit the iron door as I quickly turned around staring at the door...I heard a metal scratching the tiled floor in the bathroom, I felt cold deep in my skin, the shadow of someone standing protruded from the bathroom.. I staggered as i stepped back towards the wall, I tripped and fell as a result of a missing tile hitting my head hard on the wall.... I felt weak as my eyes closed, I caught a glimpse of someone coming out of the bathroom with an axe ..... I passed out..... Watch out for episode 30
