My Biggest Kpop Fan
As the last notes from the song faded from the piano, all the stress of the last few weeks touring evaporated with it.
I sighed contentedly. Now for a -
Clap! Clap! Clap!
I whipped around on the bench but the room was empty. The hair all over my body stood on end.
My phone was across the room charging. No! Why didn't I have a personal alarm on me?
"Who's there?" I called. Was it a crazed kpop fan who somehow broke in?
Slowly rising so the bench didn't squeak, I began crossing the room of my phone - but the phone floated off the table!
I made a low sound in my throat. I'd never admit it, but I always believed in ghosts and spirits.
I swallowed trying to make my mouth wet. "Who are you?"
Slowly my grandmother materialised scanning through my phone.
She held out the screen to me showing a picture of me and a fan taken yesterday. "You're fans really love you."
I wasn't sure the protocol for hosting your dead grandmother. "Would you like tea?" I felt so stupid.
"I want something, but it isn't tea. Thank you for asking, though."
She gazed around admiring my apartment. "You've really made it. Did anyone tell you I was a singer? My parents wouldn't allow it, though. Forced me to work in the family business then married me off where I had to work in his family business. Even after I had your mother and the others, I wasn't allowed to stop working, working, working. They gave me the day off when I went into labour, but that was all."
As she spoke she circled the apartment, and me, slowly getting closer.
"What I really wanted to do was SING!"
With the last word, she thrust her ghostly fingers into my head.
"Grandma!" I screamed.
Her loud shrill laughter sounded through my head. I fought, but my grandmother pushed into my mind, forcing me out of my body.
Weightless I floated above my beloved piano.
Grandma turned to look at me. "Don't worry, my boy, I'll take your career places you never dreamed!"
