Episode one: checking my face in the mirror I see nothing. I touch my neck checking to see if maybe I’ve become a vampire (not sure why but seemed right). But that makes no sense not only is my face missing but everything else in the bathroom is gone. To check if I’m going crazy I grabbed Frances and held her up to the mirror. When I did she hissed like crazy. With this information I had no other choice. I removed the mirror and shattered it out back. This is a ghost not me being crazy trust me you know.
Episode two: I have gotten a new roommate. Those who know me know that it’s not that safe for me to live on my own. I just can’t seem to keep a roommate. My roommate is an education manager (she told me this alone moving in). I have told her about myself and why I don’t live alone. She’s quite nice and understanding. I see why she wants to be a teacher. She has been trying to make me lunch but she seems to think that there’s something wrong with the kitchen. She said that some of the food seems off/ rotten. I told her I didn’t know why but I did. I’ve not made food in the kitchen in some time (I don’t know how long). She has now thought and thrown it all away finding bugs and mold. She has bought all new food. She didn’t need to do this, it's not that important we could have just gotten food out. I just don’t understand why she does this for me.
Episode three: Her phone keeps ringing. Tonie’s. Her phone rings and she does not answer. She walked into the door. She asks me what’s wrong. Do I look like something’s wrong? I pointed to her phone on the counter. She says sorry and freezes after looking at the missed calls. She said it was an unknown number. I had called many times in the last hour. There were several voicemails. The first couple were breathing (only natural). But then they started playing codes. Morose code? Lots of beeps, streams of numbers. You know how it is.( I tried solving them. bull shit) after listening Tonie seemed shocked. I laughed. I told her it was just a ghost. An annoying ghost. I called them back and told them to f*ck off. No calls came after that so problem solved.
Codes: 01010111 01101000 01100001 01110100 01100011 01101000 00100000 01101111 01110101 01110100. 49 74 20 6e 20 73 6f 66 74. -.-. .- -. .-..-. - / - .-. ..- ... - / .... . .-.
Episode four: my old roommate showed up to a mess. I was crying on the floor for probably no good reason. I think she had asked me what was wrong. She got me ice cream and gave me my reason. We lived with each other in silence. Then the silence changed to words. We got close and ended up dating. Not sure how it happened, everything's a blur. Are first date, crappy takeout. (I love that shit). As we walked back it started to rain. We ran all the way back trying to save the food. By the time we got back we were both dripping wet. She started to laugh and so did I. And we laughed long and hard. That was the first time I’d laughed in so long. This is like the most clear memory I've had while living with her.(57 68 79 20 6d 69 67 68 74 20 73 68 65 20 68 61 64 20 6c 65 66)
episode five: Tonie had walked in yelling about Frances. She had said Frances was scratching her up in the middle of the night. I’m the number one Frances defender (better than her dead bet of a father). So I told her that would never happen. I said it must be ghosts. But then I saw them. And they are not from a ghost. But how? She couldn’t have. We’re not even that close. Why would this happen? Why would you do this? as these thoughts ran through my head, I started to cry. She tried to comfort me. Don’t comfort me, please. It will just hurt you more. Just leave.(-... --- .-- .-.. .. -. --. / ..-. .-. --- --.)
episode six: when I told my mother there were other children at my father's job she started blankly. She told me I was wrong but I kept saying that there were other children. I guess it got so much that she took me to get checked out. We learned two things that day. One was I could see ghosts. And the other, there was something going on at my father’s work. He worked at a butcher shop. There was lots of meat. I was four or five so I don’t remember much. After investigating some things were revealed. My father was sent to jail. He’s still there. Tonie had answered my phone once and it was my mother. She said it was him and that I shouldn’t talk to him.
episode seven: Francis kept scratching at the closet door. It's the coat closet. I never go there. I have no need. It told her to leave it. She would for a while. Then she would go back to scratching at it. So times you have to give in. I thought it must be a ghost of some kind. It was no ghost. The closet was empty. All the coats and shoes and boxes. Gone. All that remains. A rope hanging for the bar. The wall seemed higher. High enough of someone to dangle. I slam the closet shut. This is the dumbest way she's ever tried to get me. Gods
episode eight: I lived so out of the way I couldn't walk to school and my mother wasn't available. So I would ride my bike down to the City bus. I would get on. After that, I rode my bike the rest of the way. The ride for the bus to the school was through a neighborhood. In the early morning the street cats would wander the sidewalks. Then in the afternoon dogs would be out. They would always bark at me snapping their jaws. One time this dog got out and wasn't a fan that I was never their home. So he bit me. I pierced through my skin as it clamped down. I screamed and whined till it would run off. I used my sleeves to cover up the wound. When I got home I just sat there. In the kitchen chair. Staring at it as it bleeds. Then my mother walked in. She yelled at me for not doing anything but what was I to do (45 76 65 6e 20 61 20 77 6f 72 6d 20 77 69 6c 20 74 75 72 6e)
