I began seeing things right from when I was six.
I saw things… not that I saw things like I’m a clairvoyant.
No, what I mean is… I have ‘spiritual eyes’.
I saw spirits and ghosts.
They resides and roam around us.
I saw each and every one of them every night and before dawn, that’s when I normally see them.
The first day I saw them, I freaked out and fear gripped me, but they didn’t knew I see them.
Our next door neighbor, Mr Amadi is one of them.
Every midnight night, he’ll come out from his body and go out. I believed he was one of this secret cult of a thing.
He always comes back before the crack of dawn but he didn’t know I’m seeing him.
Our other next door neighbor, Mr Ike, is a rit***ist.
Every two days, a sacrifice will be seen at the junction of our street. Ple.ase se.nd me fri.end req.uest. No one knows who keeps them there every midnight but I know… Mr Ike.
One night when everyone was outside enjoying the cool night breeze, I saw a man.
He walked through everyone and went into a room; Mama Amaka’s room.
No one saw him, except me.
He was dressed in black all through; black shirt tucked into a black trousers, black tie, black brouges and black sunhat.
He paused at the door and looked at me.
I became scared.
Instinctively, I knew he was seeing me and I also knew he knew I knew that he knew I was seeing him.
I thought that he might harm me but he didn’t, he just smiled at me and then went in.
Few minutes later, he came out hand in hand Uche, Amaka’s six year old younger brother but Uche wasn’t in his body.
Uche smiled and waved at me and the man glanced at me once more.
I watched them vanish into thin air.
Few minutes later, Amaka’s mother began screaming and crying that she’s lost Uche to the cold hands of d3ath.
That was when it hit.
I saw many more things!
I’ve heard about people with this rare paranormal gift and I’m totally convinced that I’m irrefutably one of them.
I don’t like this gift.
It’s scary.
I began pondering and I arrived at the conclusion that I’ll let my mom know.
I’ve never actually met my dad but I’ve heard stories of him.
So I screwed up my courage and told my mom that I see spirits and ghosts and that Mr Amadi is one of them, Mr Ike no exception and that I also saw the man who ki**ed Uche.
I thought that she may think I’ve had a screw loose or something but she did the exact opposite.
She smiled at me and told me that she know.
I became discombobulated.
I asked them how she knew and then she began telling me our family’s history.
She told me that the man dressed in black all through who ki**ed Uche is his dad and that he came to take his son to the afterlife with him.
Then she said that nothing is definitely wrong with me and that it was very normal for we dogs to see things.
Because that’s the way we were made.
Woof woof woof
