Driving in my car
The Everyday ghost storiesA middle-aged man stepping out from his car following by his daughter ,they are looking at the empty wide field in front of them, there's so many blady grasses grew with other wild grasses accompanying it. "Wow..this place quite big dad..".The girl said in mesmerism seeing the place.
The middle-aged man chuckled. "Here..Taeyeon ,we will build our new restaurant. ".He declared standing proudly looking at the place.
Taeyeon smile,she knew it's been her father's dream to expand his business,here's come the opportunity,there's nothing Taeyeon could do except hope for the best."Glad to hear it dad,i'm sure your business will succeed..".She said getting a pat on her head. Taeyeon start to move her eyes scrutinizing the place further,there's something caught her attention. She frowned with confuse face looking at 1959 Chevy that parked at the side of the field. The Automobile look so old,the yellow paints already faded and it's so rusty. Seems it's already placed in here,maybe before Taeyeon even born.
"Dad..Why that thing parked in here ?".Taeyeon pointed at the old automobile.
Mr.Kim turn and also frown looking at the old car. "Oh yes,i don't know..".The man rubbed his chin. "The former owner of this place never mentioned about that..".He sighed before taking his phone. "Don't worry honey,i'll call the car crusher.".He start to dial the numbers.
"Alright then,i'll go to school now..".Taeyeon said and hug her father.
"Are you sure honey ? You wouldn't wait for me ? I can send you to school..".Mr.Kim offered.
"Nah..it's ok.".Taeyeon smile."The school is not really far from here though. See you later dad !".Taeyeon waved her hands farewell.
"See you later honey..".Mr.Kim smile waving his hands too to the young girl. He sighed looking at the old car that blocking the place for making the new restaurant he've been dreamed of. He turn to his phone before dialing again the Car Crusher numbers. There's silent before there's someone receive the call.
"Seoul Car Crusher Department. My name is Park Han ,Can i help you ?".The operator guy said from the other line.
"Eh..hello..".Mr.Kim scratch his jaw. "My name is Kim Jaeyeon, I'm planning to build a new business on the land that i just buy ,but there's an old car blocking the place. I want you to bring that car from here and crush it ".He said casually .
"May i know what kind of the car ? And ..where is it now ?"
"I don't know ,it's maybe around 1950's old car. It's on Drago street ,just across the gate of Jiyong temple..".He informed through the line. There's a brief of silent before the operator spoke.
"I'm sorry sir,we couldn't do it.."
"What ?! What do you mean ?!"
"The car has been there around 30 years ago,there's an urban legend that the car it's not able to move or in another word,haunted.."
"Are you kidding me ?!".Mr.Kim chuckled mockingly. "What are you ? A high-school girl who believe to a corny ghost story ?! I don't want to hear anything ! Just come here and bring this Damn Car from my land ! I'll pay you big !"
"I'm sorry sir,we still couldn't do that even if you pay us with gold. I just don't want something bad happened to my workers. We ever lose one,and i don't want that happen again. Once again ,i'm sorry sir for the inconvenience. Good morning..tut. ".The line dead.
"Hey wait !!".Mr .Kim shout to the phone. "Hey ! Hello ! ..Alright i will do it with my own and i'll prove it to you i can get rid of this car from my land ! And you just a bunch of punks who still believe in people's bull !".He keep talking eventhough the line already dead. He anxiously placed back the phone to his pocket before walking fast to his car.
Mr.Kim open the lid of the trunk for bringing the rope to drag the old car. He hooked the rope to his car then to the bumper of the old car. Still with annoyed feeling he enter his car turning on the engine. Mr.Kim is a really ambitious kind of man,he wouldn't let go of something that blocking his way to get what he wanted.
He turn the handbrake of his car and then step onto the gas pedal hardly.'Vroom-Vroom'.Mr.Kim keep stepping on the gas pedal, but he surprised because the old car didn't even move from the place,no matter how much he force his strength to the gas. He gritted his teeth in annoyed. "What the,- !!".He keep pushing the gas but to no avail,the old car still stuck on the place like being glued.
"I can't believe about this !!".Mr.Kim punch the steering wheel,from the sweat on his forehead it is show how much he feel so tired ,but still his ego wants to get rid of the car immediately. Getting out once more from his car,Mr.Kim turn to the old car behind. He checked the body of the old car making sure if there's something prevent the car to move. Like magnet or wires. He bend his body under the car,looking to the tires and the places near it,but still..nothing.
'Vroom'
Mr.Kim frowned when he heard the sound of engine turning on,he's sure it's not from his car. The key was on him and though..the sounds is so close,like from this old car beside him. Mr.Kim check his surrounding ,only him in here. Getting up from his position,Mr.Kim slowly move his body up. 'Vroom'. He startled,when he heard the car being turn on once more then widen his eyes when he saw the worst nightmare in his life.
On the driver seat of the car,he saw a white man with white shirt that covered with blood. He just can see the man's half face since it's looking up at the front. Mr.Kim shivering,'Is this what they called Ghost ?'. Suddenly the white man on the driver seat move his head to Mr.Kim's side. *Crink*.Mr.Kim widen his eyes back when he saw the other half of the face,it's so scary. His half face was torn with so much blood covering it and his blue eye-ball are popping out from the socket.
"Drive in my car."
"Ahhhhhhhhhh !!"
"Yoonaaaa !!".Yoona startled a bit hearing her name when she's walking on the hallway being called,she smile maybe it's yuri. She then turn around and suddenly drop her smile,it's not yuri ,it's tiffany.
"Hey !".The older girl said cheerfully with her eye-smile,she then noticed the sudden change of expression on yoona's face. She giggled internally then smirk. "Why ? You expect Yuri to call you euh ?".She wiggled her brows playfully.
"N-no.. ".Yoona blushed while waving her palms."Of course not ! I just want to ask about yuri's condition ..".She reasoned.
"Yuri's condition ? ".Tiffany frowned. "What happened to her ?".She asked curiously.
!.Yoona cursed silently,she forgot that Tiffany didn't know anything about what happened yesterday,when yuri got attack by the trickster ghost."N-nothing..".She need to find a lie. "Tomorrow yuri...she...fell when she practicing in her dance club..".Luckily yoona remember about yuri having a dance practice yesterday.
"Aw..".Tiffany nodded her head. "How awful..but don't worry about her. She used about that,- That's Yuri !!".She pointed to the tanned girl who look health and fine. Tiffany then dragging Yoona by the hand running towards yuri. Yoona just can follow her,since she's cannot refuse it. "Yuri !!".Tiffany start to check on yuri's body here and there making a mental note if there's something wrong with her friend's body. Yuri frowned ,she's confuse with what tiffany's doing. "You're ok right ?".Tiffany asked worriedly.
"O.K ?"
"Yoona said that you fell on the dance practice,she asked about your condition because she's worried about you..".Tiffany told while the doe-eyed girl behind her blushing feeling embarrassed but she blinks her eyes to yuri,signaling something.
Yuri understand by nodding her head."Don't worry Tiff i'm alright..".She then turn to Yoona while smirking. "Thank you for worrying about me too Yoona.".The doe-eyed girl blushed then smile meekly. In another side,Tiffany smirk seeing the two girls ,hmm they getting closer to each other now.
*Spray spray*
Something caught their attention,it's like some spraying sounds. They turned then saw Sooyoung and Sunny who's spraying something around the school,it's like water with the weird kind of bottle that god even don't know where they got it.
"Bunny..lets spray this holy water around the school !".Sooyoung raise the bottle determinedly."We cannot let,something like yesterday happen again to us !"
"Em.! You right Soo !".Sunny nodded . "For the later,we can't lose again from the ghost ! Because we got the amulets !!".She said firmly before spraying again the holy water around then to her own body. The two of them noticed their friends looking curious about what might they are doing.Sunny and Sooyoung stopped and run to their friends's side before spraying the holy water all over them.
*Spray..spray..spray*
"Yah !".Tiffany tried to stop them. "What are you two doing ?! Stop it !".She blocked the water from touching her.
"Tiffany ! If you know what happened to us yesterday , you must be desperately need my holy water. Even maybe you want to bath with this !".Sooyoung stated then spray again the holy water to Tiffany.
"Hey..hey..eww.".Yuri closed her nostrils in disgusted. "What kind of smell is this ?".She wrinkled her nose because there's a weird odour when the two Ghost Hunter came.
"It's must be from this. ".Sunny showed the garlic necklace on her neck and Sooyoung's neck. Yoona chuckled silently seeing them. "In some culture ,garlic is used to get rid of The evil spirits ! Like Vampire.., "
"Sunny's right !".Sooyoung exclaimed. "We don't want something like yesterday happen again to us. You remember yesterday right yuri ? When you found us two laying on he toilet ? ".Yuri lift her brows then nodded hesitantly while tiffany make a disgusted face."We were there because we saw Ohani Ohani ghost yesterday !. ".She then turn to look at yoona. "She's real you know,me and sunny nearly die because we try our hard to attack her,with our long time experiences about ghost and spirit..we finally managed to defeat her and send her back to her world..".She placed her hands on her hips cockily telling the absolutely lie story.
"So ? Why you two were laying on the dirty toilet floor ?".Tiffany asked with sceptic face.
"Of course because we're tired after our battle !".Sunny said while spraying the holy water to her body more. Yoona and Yuri just smile watching them,if only they know what really happened . Yuri thought that,the two ghost Hunters will stop or feeling traumatic about yesterday,but it's turn out wrong. They worship the ghost even more.
"Hey guys !".Taeyeon joined with a beautiful smile on her lips,but it's ruined when Sooyoung and Sunny also start to spraying the holy water to her body."Wait..wait. What's this ?! Stop it !".She tried to cover her body from the water.
"This is holy water Taeyeon ! Our school this past few days have some poltergeist phenomenons ! And this is the worst in the story of our school history ! The ghosts are getting dangerous they even can harm me and sunny ! I think there's some force that make them come out like that !". Yoona a little bit taken aback by Sooyoung's statement , she start to feel unease and thought that it's must be because of her.
Yuri noticed the uneasiness around yoona, but she cannot say or do anything,since it's still the secret between her and yoona towards their friends.
Taeyeon rolled her eyes and sighed,before placing her hand on Sooyoung's forehead. ".You have a fever.".She mumbled while Sooyoung sniff her nose. "I.Don't. Believe. With. Your.Story. Sooooo~~".She said smoothly while smirking happily.
"Yah ! You have to believe me !"
"You're delusional."
"Ehh Taeyeon. ".Yuri interrupted to change the topic. "You look so happy today . Mind to share that to us ?"
"Ohoho Yes !!".Taeyeon clapped her hands. "My father going to build another restaurant around here ! I'm so glad that it will be my property in the future..".She said cheerfully imagining she's being the manager of the place,scolding Sooyoung who always eat instead of serving the customers.
".That's awesome we can hang out in there some day right ? ".Tiffany asked. "Free ?"
"Of course you all can ! But not free ".Taeyeon said with straight tone in the last parts.
"Emm..where is that ?".Yoona asked trying to join the conversation.
Taeyeon smile turn to yoona. "It's the empty land across the gate of the Jiyong temple..couple of blocks from here.."
"The empty land across Jiyong temple you said ?!".Sunny suddenly move her face toward Taeyeon's ,revealing the blush on The older girl's face but sunny seems oblivious with it."You mean where the old wrecked car parked ? 1959 Chevy ?"
"Ehh..".Taeyeon nodded scooting away from sunny. "Yes..".She doesn't know though about the car's model,she just know about the old car on her father's land.
"Taeyeon ! That's the phantom car !".Sunny placed her hands on Taeyeon's shoulder sending a shiver feeling to Taeyeon."There's a legend about it, the car was move by its own in the night driving around Seoul without someone control it ! It can't be move from the place because it's always suddenly came back to the former place ! If there's people who move it or even wreck it again till flat , It's either bad luck in the road,sick or worse..die.."
Taeyeon a little bit taken aback by sunny's words. She then slowly move sunny's hands from her shoulder. "Sunny..i don't believe with it.".She said in cold tone. "And do you realize this is my father who you talking about ?".Sunny startled she never saw Taeyeon look this mad. She's not raising her voice instead lowering her voice,it's sure creepy for sunny. "find another hobby and start to think about another people's presence..".She gave the last words before turning around walk away from her friends.
Sunny froze in her place with mouth opened."D-did i say something wrong ?"
"You ruin her mood bunny.."
"Thanks Soo..for being honest.".Sunny said sarcastically.
"I'm just telling the truth."
"Alright guys..".Yuri stop them before another quarrel come."Lets go to the class now,don't worry about Taeyeon ,she'll back to normal soon..".Yuri patted sunny's shoulder for not being guilty about Taeyeon. All of them then start to walk for the class, Yoona suddenly feel something and lift the necklace on her chest. The blue light came again.
The students were having the tasks from their English teacher on the class,with thoughtful faces. Why English so hard,especially why there's something called grammar ! Can't this people who invented it realize that,what's more important in language is we understand each other what we are saying.
There's a particular someone who didn't even start to do her tasks,Sunny. She sighed while looking at Taeyeon's back. The girl still giving her a silent treatment ,maybe because she still mad about what sunny has saying to her. It's so hurt to think about Taeyeon hating her. "So well thy words become thee as thy wounds.".She mumbled quoting Shakespeare's Macbeth play.
Sunny turn her attention when there's another teacher came to their class, She whispered something to the English teacher before turn to the students. "Kim Taeyeon.".The said girl look up from her book when her name being called,all the students also move their attention especially Sunny. Who this 15 Minutes long looking at Taeyeon.
"Yes miss ?"
"Can you follow me for awhile, i have a news for you..".Taeyeon nodded raising from her seat. "Ahh..Please bring your bag too.".Taeyeon frowned but obey it anyway putting her book to her bag. She lift it and place it on her shoulder,stealing a last glance to gloomy sunny.
"What do you think happened yul ?".Sooyoung asked to the tanned girl.
Yuri shrugged. "Maybe..some council matters. She's in student council right ?"
"You think so ?".Sooyoung turn to the short hair girl.
Sunny let out a heavy breath while looking at Taeyeon's empty desk. "Don't know.."
*Tap..Tap*
Taeyeon's running sounds echoed in the corridor of the hospital. "It can't be..".She murmured remembering her conversation with the teacher earlier.
"What happened Miss ?"
"Taeyeon i'm sorry to say it but,we just got the news from the hospital that your father were having an accident.."
Taeyeon repeat the words over and over in her mind,making sure that it's just a silly dream or her imagination,but when she step in to her father's ward. She knows it's a reality. Seeing her father laying unconsciously on the bed.
"Dad !!".Taeyeon immediately walk to his side with tears rolling on her cheeks. "Dad, What happened ?! You're ok right ?".Her loud voice suddenly waking up him from his slumber.
Mr.Kim chuckled seeing his daughter worry face. "Don't worry honey,i'm alright..just got a fracture on my right foot."Taeyeon moved her attention to his covered foot.
"Wh-what happened to you ? Tell me dad ! Is there someone hurt you ?".Taeyeon asked desperately tugging at the hospital blanket.
Mr.Kim turn his eyes to the white ceiling,remembering the cause of his fracture feet. Yes,there is..but not someone,precisely something. After shouting and seeing the ghost in that old car. Mr.Kim quickly run for his life to his car,he's implying to drive from there and step onto the gas hardly but couldn't when he realize his car still hooked onto that ghost car. He exit the car once more before run again,but he stopped with wide eyes when out of nowhere the old car suddenly drove quickly toward him.
Mr.Kim couldn't move his feet,it's like being glued to the ground. The last thing he saw was the expressionless face of the white man behind the steering wheel before he fell to the ground hearing something broken then blacking out before it change to be this hospital ceiling.
"Dad ?".Taeyeon called him who looks spacing out. "You're ok ?"
Mr.Kim smile. "I'm fine honey,i just feel sleepy maybe because the anaesthetic.".He reasoned before sighed with regretness on his face. "Taeyeon ,i'm sorry.."
"Dad ?! Don't say that ! Why you said sorry ?! I don't want you to die soon !! You have to wait me and watch me married with Bu,-".Taeyeon stopped from her words before she blurt out her secret to him
Mr.Kim lift his brows . "What ?"
"Nothing..Auch !".Taeyeon groaned when her father smack his head.
"What do you think you're saying ?! I'm not gonna die !"
"Then..why you said sorry ?"
