Chapter 3. Shadowy figures
Goblins were the most frequent and common spirits I had seen so far. Second to those comes the black figures, completely black but of human shape and of real human height, not very tall yet not very short and tiny like goblins.
As long as they are within a certain distance I wouldn't care if they are just passing by or anything else. The strange thing is, my family believed in me whenever I told them this stuff when I couldn't even believe myself.
The most black figures I saw were almost in all the houses I changed and shifted too. I don't know what they are called, so I call them black figures, completely black, like how a vast ocean looks like at night. I always saw them passing and walking here and there, never saw harming. Never knew anything about them in detail.And I always got a glimpse of them for few seconds. I saw one of it going into a mirror, saw one passing through a wall somewhere else, and I saw another following someone else. I still don't know what's their purpose and wether they are good or bad. But I mostly saw them in each and every house I've lived in so far.
One day, I was sitting in the living room watching a horror movie alone. Aside from me, my grandmother was sleeping in the bedroom and my mother was out working for her job. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw something like black figure walk from kitchen to bedroom. I didn't payed much attention at first, then I caught a glimpse of something white too going in the same direction. Then I payed attention a bit yet still was watching the movie when I again caught a glimpse of something black going back to kitchen, btw, the white thing didn't followed it. And then I completely took my eyes off the tv and looked towards kitchen while sitting on the sofa waiting for whatever was it to come out, because I thought it was my grandmother doing something there. So I called her once– no response, then I called her twice– again no response. So I again called her for the third time and when I was again met with silence I got up from the sofa and went straight ahead into the kitchen only to found out that there was no one. Then I headed towards bedroom to see that she's sleeping peacefully. Then i thought to myself, was it my illusion because I was watching a horror movie at that time? I still don't know whether to believe it or not, because it wasn't like I 100% believed in ghosts at that time, it was somewhere in between.
I always found their presence somewhat random and unexpected but I never once got frightened by them. Because they would usually appear when I would be just peacefully doing something studying, painting or lost in my thoughts. It's like they were meant to follow someone else like a shadow....
