I never knew I can play "go" again…

--------------

thank you God…for giving me this benefit

but…

why do you let me do this? why?

Coincidence

I was waiting for many years, maybe many centuries for a person to come by that can see and hear a ghost like me.

I…lived in a place called a miyako 1000 years ago in Japan.

I taught the emperor the game "go".

Go is a board game that ancient Chinese people invented.

I loved go very much, and I loved my life. I got to play go as much as I wanted to.

But….

There was another person that also taught the emperor go.

He didn't like me. He didn't want anyone else besides him to be with the emperor.

So, I asked me to play against him.

If I won, he said he would say anything again to me.

He said if he wins, I would have to leave the whole city, and live off on my own.

I had no choice…..

There we many people watching us play….

But then, I saw what the man did.

He….cheated.

I used a white stone to play, and the man had a black stone.

He had one of my white stone in his hand.

He put the white stone into a bowl called a "goke", which is a bowl to put your opponent's stone in, when you surround your opponent's stone, or stones.

I raised my voice to say this, but then he…

Said that I cheated.

He noticed that I was the only one that saw this.

No one…believed me.

We kept on playing the rest of the game.

I…lost.

Lost because of the man's cheating.

I was kicked out of the city.

I didn't know what to do, or where to go.

Knowing what to do, I suicide by drowning myself in a lake.

After my death, I couldn't leave this world.

I wanted to play more go.

I also wanted to complete "The hand of God".

…………………

820 years later, a little boy heard my voice in the go board I was in.

He could see me, although I was a ghost.

I asked him if I could use his body to play go.

I he smiled and said yes.

It was very fun playing go with the people at this time period.

But….at age 32, he died of an illness.

I stayed in the go board that we last played on.

Waiting for another person to find me.
