Lost Soul

There is a Temp Clerk who is a female . Her elder brother was a cynic when it came to ghost stories until one day something happened to him . He came home with a strange look on his face sometime during the Hungry Ghost Festival two years ago . She remember it quite well . There was a sort of worried frown on his face , but at the same time he looked a bit puzzled .

Her sister and her asked him that night what was wrong because he seem bothered all through dinner and later . He wouldn't tell them at first . But the next day he let it slip that he felt there were two eyes attached to the back of his head . Her sister and her laughed and cracked a lot of jokes about it , teasing him , but soon they realised this was no laughing matter .

As she said , his brother is usually a levelheaded sort of guy , but he started acting odd that week . He would mutter in his sleep and toss and turn , sometimes waking up the rest of us with these antics . Then he started losing weight , and his attention would waver even if you spoke to him . It really got them quite worried . They spoke to a good friend of his , who came over , took one look at him and said , "This is serious . "

Her brother's friend took him to see a couple of people who his family always turned to when things like this . One of them told her brother that this was what hadf happened :

The day her brother had come back home feeling that there was a pair of eyes attached to the back of his head , he had , on his way back after work , stepped onto a trial of papers left at a funeral site for the spirit to find its way into the other world . When her brother had stepped on the trial , the spirit , which at the time had been on its way into the other world , found its journey interrupted . Confused , it had attached itself to him .

Now it was lost .

It wanted to continue its journey as much as my brother must have wanted to be rid of it . The solution , therefore , was for him to retrace his steps , find the exact spot where he had stepped onto that paper trial and stand there again . The spirit would then gladly leave him .

Her brother took his advice seriously . He went back to that paper trial , which fortunately was still there and found the spot where he thought he had stepped on it . He told them later that at that moment he suddenly felt this great sense of relief and when he came hom , he left behind him that feeling of a pair of eyes attached to the back of his head .

The first thing he did was to have a shower . The next thing he did was have a good sleep . They were all glad for him that his torment was over .
