Whispers

Herman's Ghost(Completed)

    After reading this, Mr. Louis asked Andrew, “So, what is the problem? Did this type of incident happen with you also?"

    "No. But I think in my case the ghost is Herman himself!” Andrew answered.

    "But, how is that possible?” Louis asked. Mr. Louis was a priest and was often involved in these ghost sorts of things. He was a smart, courageous and polite widower, who cared for his students very much.

    "Actually, it ..... It talked... I mean said...”

    "Say it clearly Andrew. Do not be scared.” Louis assured him. By this time, the boy had started to sweat and his face had become gloomy and dull. The teacher comforted him and again requested him to say everything clearly. Andrew then took a deep breath and continued.

    "Actually the voice had asked me to search for the dairy. It also instructed me to go to the attic."

Mr. Louis then went into a deep thought and then said in a calm voice, "See, Andrew, there are many incidents which does not have any scientific meaning. It might be possible that Herman wanted you or someone to know the story of that masculine voice. It's really an incredible and interesting story and I think that you should share this story in the class."

    From that day onwards, Andrew never again heard those voices. He was happy but also sad that he could not thank that voice for this beautiful story.
