The day started all boring and I felt like I could die of boredom if I stayed in my room more than the time that I had used lie on my bed like a log of wood.

My day was free of work because I had used last night to do all the work for the next day, and I did those work yesterday because I was bored yesterday... It had been a boring week since I was fired.

Enough of boredom and bearing with it, I went out to get some fresh air and also get a favourite snack of mine. I wanted to visit the cinema but I remembered almost immediately that I had been watching lots of movies with my pc and going to the cinema meant I would be paying for tickets which aren't cheap enough for one who lost her job.

So I took a walk around a children park to watch how playful they were and they brought some liveliness to my bored soul, I kept watching them as I ate my snacks very slowly so I don't get to go back home too early.

While watching the kids, I noticed a very cute girl playing on her own and how she looked at her mate with a sad face but continued with her play with a smile.

I felt for her as I thought she didn't have a friend to play with, I decided to keep myself busy by playing her game with her. I got closer to her and just when I said "Cute girl, how are you?" she stood up, looking at me with a surprised face.

I brought out a mirror from my bag to check what was on my face that she kept looking at me with a surprised face. I hated looking unkempt or having something on my face so I thought I had one on me, but I began to wonder after I checked myself on the mirror.

What's wrong cutey, why are you looking so surprised? I asked her after confirming my unstained beauty in the mirror.

Can you see me? Like you are aware of my presence here? The little cutey asked me still looking surprised.

Of course, and I must say you are so cute and beautiful... I answered her with a smile on my face, still trying to take all my boredom away.

The little girl jumped with so much happiness saying so many gibberish I couldn't hear but one thing I heard clearly was "Hi, my name is Clara... What is your name?"

You can call me auntie, you're so cute... I said touching her cheeks with my hands.

We played for a really long time that I didn't realized it was getting dark. I decided to go back home and somehow I was so happy when she asked to go home with me and we continued our games when we got home.

Clara had eaten up to five times before we got home and she was busy eating the ninth time when I realised that I had no food in the house anymore.

How come you little thing eat this much? I asked my little cutey with an amazed face.

Don't mind my wild stomach, I do wonder about that as well. Just get more food in the house already... Clara said looking at me with a cute face which I fell for immediately.

I didn't have much money but I found lots of money in my wardrobe, and I didn't remember how I got the money but just went on to get more food items in the house which made my cutey so happy.

She stole away all my boredom and we lived so happily with each other in the house, I decided to take her with me to a shopping mall to buy some new clothes for her, she had told me about her birth date and how she became an orphan.

We got to the shopping mall talking and laughing with each other. I began to notice people looking at me like I was insane or crazy.

I brought out my mirror to check and saw the flawless beauty, then I began to wonder why they kept looking at me with faces that said "I think she's crazy". Then I thought, maybe it was because Clara was so cute and I had her with me, I began to laugh louder with her as I stroke her cute hair with my hands to get them more jealous of me.

Young miss, who are you talking to? An advanced man came close to ask me.

Clara! My cute friend, can't you see her? I answered with a happy smile on my face

Uhmmm miss, you're the only one here talking to no one... Are you okay? The man asked.

I turned to look at Clara who was giving a cute look and was about to cry. I knew immediately that I was the only one seeing my cutey, I had been living with a ghost.

You're a ghost? I asked a question I already knew the answer to.

Yes I am, I'm sorry I couldn't tell you. I was afraid you'd left me alone... Clara said already crying.

Come on cutey, I don't mind you being a ghost so long you'll be this cute all the time... I answered hugging her to the puzzle of those at the mall.

But wait a minute, do ghosts eat a lot like you? I asked with a confused face.

My promoted post is a post titled Authur by meesterboom@meesterboom

I gave what I hoped was an amiable smile even though I owned half the house she was inviting me into and I was fairly certain that under old Scots law that entitled me to half murder anyone under its roof.

This part of the story got me laughing so hard that I thought of coming up with a funny story as well, I doubt if mine is as funny as meesterboom@meesterboom funny story though.
