' Sir , Please help me, she's been harassed and I can't find her anywhere.' she cried with deep fear in her voice.
'Huh,?' he says trying not to get surprised. ' Ma'am, please tell everything in detail.' calming her down.
'She, she had a boyfriend she used to talk with, up to late night but whenever I asked her about him she used to change the topic or just say he's harmless, he is just funny like a hamster. Then, last Monday he called her at midnight and to my surprise she went to meet him, jumping out of the window from her room upstairs.' she paused.
'And?'
'Then, I followed her to the Ferris station. it was very dark but I guess I saw her enter the narrow street. Suddenly a car hit me and escaped without even making sure if I was dead or alive. While dying, I heard my daughter's scream but I couldn't do anything, I didn't even know where she is, I can't even protect my child.' tears rolled down her face.
( Author's note: Tears rolled down on ghost's face as well, I guess it is awkward. Please don't mind.)
' Sad, Don't worry, every one will get Karma accordingly.'
'I can't wait for Karma to decide, i want revenge and you shall help me lawyer.' she interrupted.
'Did you try to find her then?'
' I tried? It's more like I wandered through places like astray soul searching for her.'
''So, if a ghost also couldn't find a person, then that means ....'' in his mind
'Yeah, maybe she is dead but I still have to find her, I beg you please help me sir.' she kneels.
' That's my job ma'am please don't beg, and furthermore she should allow me to see her but I will try my best giving justice for both of you. Let's go to my office first.' starts driving.
In their way to office, it's pin drop silence.
'Ok, this is it. lets get down' he runs to open her car door but forgets she's a ghost.
They both ignore the joke and go to his office in 2nd floor, Law and Order Building, Justice department.
He waves hello to his fellow colleagues on the way to his cabin.
'I will file this case and start my investigation from now and inform my colleagues to search this matter at your witnessed place.'
She quietly nods her head.
Suddenly. the telephone by his file rings.
' Yes, JD. Melon speaking, How can I help you?'
' Nathen, uwaaaahhh ...hhhh' Seyra whims.
' Yes, what happened ,Seyra? Are you alright?'
' No, nothing's fine. Please come home fast.' she cries.
' Don't trouble me Seyra, I am busy.' he quickly cuts the line off.
" This girl, always troublesome.'' he sighs.
'I guess, I'll contact you later but first I should search some call histories of your daughter.' he says to the old lady ghost.
*swish*
She flies away in to the air.
'' The ghosts and girls, I can never understand them" in his mind.
He continues his work on finding the girl's contact and call history within the months.
* At evening *
Mr. Melon parks his car and goes upstairs.
He enters Seyra's apartment and finds the most shocking news of the day; Mr. Macias (Seyra's father) was murdered. He was shot with a gun.
Everyone's gloomy face makes him sad and the most sad sight, Seyra standing like a dead person glaring at her father's dead body, her face completely soaked in tears.
' Seyra, I am sorry. I thought ....' he speaks guilty.
' What? You thought I was making a joke again?' turns her dull face towards him.
' I am sorry, I should just .... '
' Get out ! '
' Huh?'
' I said get out or else I might slap you, Please Leave!' she shouts at him in front of her grandma and brother.
