Chapter 72 Josh Runs Into A Ghost Again

Lilly forcefully dragged Josh to a sprint.

The blazing sun still hung overhead. The trees in the school grove weren’t particularly short but provided just enough shade.The moment he set foot in the grove, he noticed Cheryl there with her head hanging low. She looked downcast.

She sluggishly looked up to stare at him when he approached.

He could feel every hair on his body stand on end.

Lilly turned around. “Are you scared, Drake? You can head back if you are!”

Josh was ready to leave but stayed out of stubbornness. “…Real funny. You think I’m scared?”

Calm… I have to calm down.

Nothing in the world scares me.

A resounding scream tore through the air just as he was thinking. “Ah!”

Josh jumped. “Eek!”

That startled Lilly who chased after the boy who began to run wildly. “That’s Polly, Josh!”

Polly was sitting in the school bag singing. “….Take the red string of fate… You and I… Ah…”

The bird couldn’t reach a higher octave leading to a hideous scream.

Josh was rendered speechless.

He wanted to weep so badly.

That was when Cheryl began to take light, mincing steps toward them.

“You’re here, Josh.” She giggled.

The subject of affections had been shocked stupid. “…”

His tears stopped and a chill ran down his spine.

Cheryl had a pale complexion with eyes bruised and sunken in.

Her features were stiff, leading to her efforts in smiling leaving everyone unnerved.

Josh felt numb. “Uh…”

Lilly got in Cheryl’s way and started with a frown, “Stop scaring him!”

She wore a serious expression on her chubby, child-like face.

“Master… Master?” Lilly looked around.
