Marathon Competition: Fifth Mile – Ghost


Nearly Headless Nick watched as the students went about their day. Normally, he was a jovial ghost, but there were times that he couldn't stop the melancholy from overtaking him.

He remembered how it felt to be alive. He had been so happy. He didn't care about any of the problems in the world. He had been worry-free. It was such a simple time for him.

He remembered going out in the fresh air. Eating delicious food. And always having some kind of party to attend.

He missed those days.

Now, all he did was watch alive people take for granted what he wished he could still experience.
