A country escape was what the real estate agent had promised. There is a disused train track bordering the estate he said. The house inspection over she wanted to explore.
A brisk walk and we were walking along the tracks. We saw them in the distance, the girl with
her backpack and the dog trudging behind her.
We shouted a greeting but they turned into surrounding bushes and went out
of sight.
On the way out the agent met us.
“Enjoyed your walk? The locals believe the estate has a
ghost child and her dog who wander around”, he chuckled.

Dear Subroto,
ReplyDeleteNo confusion here. I guess the locals are right. I wonder if this will be a deterrent to the prospective buyers. Nice one.
Shalom,
Rochelle
It all depends on how the agent markets it ;-)

Oh my! That's a great picture!
DeleteOh dear. I wonder if they'll buy. I like the estate agent's chuckle. Nice touch.
ReplyDeleteDepends if there is a ghost buster or they could just let her walk :-) Thanks for reading and commenting Margaret.
DeleteOh I think that a ghost on the property should give a premium
ReplyDeleteHa! Ha! Maybe there is a market for that and a certificate of authenticity.
DeleteI wonder it's the girl from the previous story?
ReplyDeleteCould be, but she is not telling ;-)
