Title: CONTINUED The story of Mai By: CX (Sorry for making you all wait. That was not my intention. I thought I would be finish with the story during my lunch break, but I didnt have enough time.) Im typing on my cell phone, so my apologies for bad grammar. Mai said she couldnt find her body, so she couldnt come back. She was crying as she was telling what happened to her. During the first night in front of all the grieving family and friends: Late during the night, there was a heavy/loud knockings at the front door. The MIL went to open the door, and there stood Mai with her head caved in, bloody, blue, and bruised. Dead as can be. She said Niam... then walked right on in. Everyone in the living room saw Mai walk inside. There were some gasp, but mostly it was dead silent. Her MIL just kind of froze where she stood. Mai glanced at everyone in the living room. Then she walked to the stairs and vanished. (This all happened within a few seconds.) Finally some of the elders said in Hmong, What are you doing? Arent you embarrassed in front of all your family and friends?! How dare you come show yourself like that to us?! The MIL told people when she saw Mai at the front door, she was grinning at her in a mocking moua plou kind of way. Then she said Niam. Only the MIL saw this; no one else in the room saw it. They hu pli for the MIL the next day because she was pretty shaken up. That night no one got any sleep in the house. Everyone heard footsteps going up and down the stairs, dishes rattling, and a fowl odor wherever Mai was. The two youngest cried all night long. Mai wouldnt leave them alone. The next day they did a ritual to hide her kids from her. The kids went to stay with a family member. That night at the house, she made herself known again. This time she didnt show herself to a large group of people, and she didnt look the way she did the first night. Her SIL and BIL saw swinging on their porch swing when driving to the house. From a distance, it looked like Mai, but as the SIL and her husband got closer, what they saw was a poj ntxoog looking like thing on the swing grinning at them. The atmosphere in the house was a very cold and most unwelcoming one. No one dared to be by themselves anywhere in the house. The nasty smell of old dead blood would appear from time to time in different locations of the house. (It smelled like someone wearing a maxi pad and didnt change it for a day or two.) Mai went into a few different peoples dreams looking for her kids. She was furious she couldnt find them. She said she misses them and just wanted to hold them. During the funeral, there were lots of scary sightings of Mai from a lot of people. Mostly the niam tsev (Mothers) who were helping with the food prepping. Again no one wanted to be alone. It was a closed casket due to the severe damage to her head. During the first night early in the morning, a young man who was sitting near the casket saw the casket top move up. He thought he was seeing things, so he tapped the person next to him to look. They both watched, and it happened again. The casket was being pushed up. Both young men, scared to death, tapped the other guys around them to witness what they saw. It happened again. This time one of the guys sitting around those guys was a cousin of Mai. That cousin walked up to the casket and said in a very stern and calm tone in Hmong, My dear sister, please do not embarrass me or your family by continuing to behave that way. You are dead. You need to go on your way. I am embarrassed, and I know your mother will be embarrassed too if she were to hear about this. Stop scaring all the people here. After the funeral, Mais husband and kids got their names changed & secretly moved out of the house. Family and friends close to Mai would often have dreams where Mai would ask them if they know or have seen her husband and kids. She would get angry when they tell her they dont know. Some people reports Mai looks like herself while asking, but then once they answer her, she turned into a scary poj ntxoog looking like thing. * Many people spoke that Mai and Yees family line/blood line always comes back/ they dont die and leave peacefully after death. It is said that back in Laos and Thailand, most of their family members die and become poj ntxoogs. When they die, its usually because their own family members comes as a poj ntxoog and takes them. Back in the homelands if anyone married their families; if a person passes, they would use a bamboo rice cooker thing to cover their head as they take the dead out of the house, so the dead wont be able to see them.
