I’ll never forget the Tag I had encountered a ghosts with my best friends. And I will be happy to share that story with you.
It was August 20th exactly one week before the start of middle school. My best friend Alex and I sat outside on the curb and ate our half melted erdbeere ice cream on a cone. It must’ve been 95 degrees outside because we could feel our sweet dripping off our faces. We didn’t say much because the calefaction made us not want to be social. We sat there in silence and licked our ice cream.
“What do Du think middle school will be like, Collin?” Alex broke the peace.
“I’m not really sure. My oldest brother, Joseph, sagte it’s not really hard if Du get on the teachers good side.” I answered him back flicking a pebble into the road.
Alex had mixed skin, a brown buzz cut, and brown eyes, short and scrawny. He was the height of 4’11 and weighed around 90 pounds. He was 13 at the time Alex was the type to play video games all Tag and eat rather than be outside and run around. He was very intelligent, reasonable, and observant. He was very shy so he didn’t really have too many friends.
I was the complete opposite. I was 5’6 and weighed 115 pounds. I had dirty blonde hair, with light cobalt eyes and had the perfect tan. I was tall and muscular for my age, if I do say so myself. I was also 13 at the time I was always hyper and loved to play sports from football to baseball to Fußball to lacrosse. I wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed. I was skilled though when it came to sports. I was very beliebt and outgoing and could make anyone near me crack up with laughter because I was just that hysterical.
“Do Du think we will be able to make friends?” Alex asked me staring at me.
“I know I will.” I replied back.
“How do Du make so many Friends so quickly? Is it because you’re athletic oder because Du come from a first class family, oder what?”
“Do Du want to know how I make so many friends, Alex?”
“Yes, yes, yes please tell me!” Alex begged with his welpe dog looking eyes.
I took a deep breath in as if to tell him the meaning of life. “I don’t ask Fragen all the time!” I snapped because the only thing Alex was only accomplishing at the moment was the ability to get on my nerves.
“You know even Einstein asked questions, right?” Alex asked another one of his dumb questions.
I just stared at him and could only feel sympathy for myself and his family. Who would want a kid that only knew how to ask not answer questions? I know I wouldn’t want a kid like that. If I did that, child would drive me up a wall.
“What are Du two doing?” Asked Cali Rightson.
Cali was 14 and was known for her bad reputation from being mean to others all the way to doing drugs. I did have to admit even thought she was a trouble maker she sure did look pretty. Her brown wavy hair pushed back into a high ponytail so every time she walked her ponytail bounced back and forth. Her hazel eyes sparkled with the sunlight and her mascara, eyeliner, and sparkly nerz eye shadow made her eyes stand out even Mehr beautiful than they actually where. She was wearing a black KISS t-shirt and undersized shorts that looked like they were clawed. Her kirsche red and white, fresh All star, sterne Converses made her look smallish than she actually was. I was pretty sure she was around 5’2 but she looked like she was 4’11.
“Because we can be here. Du got a problem with that?” Alex answered her in a stuck up tone of voice.
“Alex, Du need to say hello first before Du ask one of your unlimited unnecessary questions.” I shot back to him giving him a dirty look.
Cali chuckled under her breath. She’s so pretty I thought admiring her. That also was the first time I noticed that when she smiled she got two small dimples.
She began to play with her rook earing. “Well, since there’s nothing else I can do in this small town I shall sit with Du two.”
I scouted over to make room for Cali. As she sat down the scent of her perfume was amazing. It was a mix between vanilla and honey aroma.
“You look nice today”. I complimented, “are Du going anywhere special?”
“You say I ask stupid questions” Alex sagte under his breath and rolled his eyes
I nudged his knee with mine as if to tell him to shut up.
“No, not really I might take a walk to the park with a friend but I don’t know.” Cali answered my Frage as she tried to ignore Alex’s remark.
“Ah, I see.”
“Yeah…” She sagte as if she had something bad on her mind.
“What’s wrong Cali?” I asked staring at her.
“What’s wrong Cali?” Alex mocked back. He never liked Cali and always called her trash. He sagte the way she dressed and acted made him wonder why she wasn’t a mother yet.
“I think I should be going”. Cali stood up and started to walk towards her house.
I knew that time Cali was sick of Alex’s inappropriate remarks and that’s why she was leaving. “Alex! Why do Du have to be so rude to people. Du wouldn’t approve of someone treating your daughter like that!” I busted out in anger. “Cali, wait up!” I jogged toward her. “Look I’m sorry about Alex sometimes he doesn’t know the right thing to say at times. I’m really sorry.”
“It’s not Du I want to hear an apology from.” She sagte with her head down. “And not Alex’s either.”
“What?”
“You heard me. It’s just everyone is always talking about me calling me every name known to man but the respectful words. I’m sick of it, Du know? You’re so beliebt and have all the Friends Du need and more. You’re so nice to people and athletic. I wish I was like that”
“You’re nice to me and Du seem athletic.” I reformed her statement.
“HA! No I’m not. I don’t even know how to kick a Fußball ball.” She bawled.
“Well, where all different.” I said.
After a few weeks went by, I became really good Friends with Cali as well as Alex. Cali and I even started to date. We ate lunch together every Tag at school and talked about the most randomness things.
“What are we going to do for Halloween?” Alex one Tag asked taking a bite of his red apple.
“Ummm isn’t that a while from now?” I asked taking a swig of milk.
“Well I suppose. But Halloween is where Du can get into a true chiller.” He countered back.
And after a few weeks it was Halloween. Alex wore an astronaut suit, Cali was wearing a female pirate costume, and I was dressed up as Edward scissorhands.
“Where are we going tonight” Cali asked as she adjusted her eye piece.
“I was thinking about Smith’s Graveyard.” I told them.
“The graveyard?!” Both Alex and Cali questioned at the same time.
“Yeah come on guys it will be awesome all our parents are out and no school tomorrow it’s as if we own the night.” From there I took Cali’s hand and started to run to the road that led to the graveyard.
In a matter of Minuten we were entering the gates of the grave yard. The metal worn down gate squeaked as we pressed them open.
“I doubt this is a good idea we should go back” Alex stuttered glancing at the tomb stones.
“Stop being such a wimp, Alex.” Cali shot back. She leaned on my shoulder and snuggled up close to me. I laughed and put my arm around her. She giggled back. Man did she have the most amazingness laugh!
“Have Du two ever played the game 100 candles?” I asked sitting under a dead oak tree.
“What’s that?” Cali asked
“It’s a group of people sit in a kreis with 100 candles lit. Going around the circle, each person tells a ghost story then blows out one of the candles, until all the candles have been blown out. Once all the candles are out, a portal to the other side is supposedly created.” I answered as I started to pull out candles from my book bag I brought along.
“That will be so awesome to play!” Cali exclaimed as she started to help me pull them out and light them with her lighter she uses when she wants to smoke.
“Heck no!” Alex disagreed, “where not playing any of that paranormal stuff. It’s so stupid and we don’t have a big enough group so forget it.”
“Why are Du a sissy when it comes to this stuff?” I asked him handing the last candle to Cali.
“Because the other world is not something Du want to mess with, people get possessed.” Alex started to raise his voice which seemed to surprise Cali.
“Stop, Alex. You’re Schauspielen crazy-“
“Crazy?” He interrupted me, “I’m not the one who wants to mess with the dead. Du two have all the fun Du want but I’m going Home and, Cali, if Du don’t fallow Du are just as dumb as him.” Alex started heading for the gate.
“Why is he Schauspielen like this?” Cali sagte out loud.
“Don’t worry, he will come back.”
“How do Du know?”
“I know him since I’ve been four. He won’t do anything to stand up for himself. So he will come right back in about five minutes.”
And like I said, he came back just as quickly as he left.
“Told Du he will be back.” I assured her.
We sat there in silence for a while and stared at one another. The night was getting colder and darker as each Sekunde pasted.
“Well, are we going to play oder look at each other?” Alex asked clearly frustrated.
“Yes!” Cali squeaked happily as she rubbed her hands up and down together in excitement.
“Who goes first?” I asked staring into the flame of the candles.
Cali shot her hand up quicker than a bird fleeing from the sound of a gunshot.
“Cali I suppose you’re first” I laughed and Alex, of course, rolled his eyes.
“I was less than 2 years Vor that I went to my grandparents, mother's side, house for summer vacations in Dallas. This was a yearly practice. Our main attraction of going there was the river and we could swim in it for hours together until my grandpa came and took us back home. One such morning I was ready and too excited to go to the river. I was accompanied Von my cousin, sister and her friends. There was a bridge on the river which connected my grandpa's town to another town, so we used to jump in the river from the bridge. We were walking on the bridge and were all set to spend some time in the river but on the other side of the bridge we saw a lady wearing an old long dress, looked as if it was from the 1800s. It wasn’t normal for us, to see a young lady wearing such an ancient dress in the middle of the woods. However, I clearly remember she had golden hair. Then she suddenly started calling us to save her. ‘Help me! Please help!’ And that voice kind of still echoes to me. We ran away but we could hear her voice very loudly on the other side of the bridge. We told Grandma about the lady and she sagte she must be the women who married the man who owned the bridge. And that the women, somehow, fell into the water and didn’t know how to swim. She drowned and sagte to be at the bridge waiting to be saved.” Cali said. She picked up her nearest candle and blew it out.
“I want to go now.” Alex volunteered, “Really soon after I moved into a small house before I moved here I started feeling there was something in the hallway. I tried telling my parents but they didn't believe me. If Du gave one step out of the bedroom Du would find yourself at the end of a corridor with the living room door in front of you. Another step and Du would have entered the living room. Well, the thing is, after giving just one step, if Du looked with the corner of your eye Du could see a little girl standing almost at the other end of the corridor and she was like dancing, oder moving, not really sure. If Du turned your head completely to take a better look, she was gone. I would say, Von her height, that she must have been 6 years old. I grew Mehr afraid of open doors, so at night when we were going to bed, I could never sleep if I knew the bedroom door was open. I was always afraid of her getting into the room. Then my parent decided to finally Bewegen to the city. When we did we went to register our new address at the City Hall. They asked us where we used to live and we gave the guy the address, then he sagte the most amazing thing: "so Du two are moving to the city but not the little girl?’ ‘What little girl?’ my dad asked. The guy sagte there was a little girl living with us according to his records. We asked for the name but he noticed we had no idea who she was so he sagte he shouldn't disclose information. Like I said, perhaps this is nothing. It could explain what I saw in the corridor, but it also could mean the girl moved out and she didn't register her new address ever since, but she should because it’s needed for school paperwork.” As he finished he also picked up a candle and blew it out.
“I’m next.” I sagte straighten up my back from my lounging position. “When I was around 7 years old I was at my house and my friend Tony came over and he asked to sleepover like we would always do every Saturday night. During the Tag we would laugh and play games, getting darker and darker outside, it was close to midnight. I pulled out the sofa bett and started getting everything ready. Tony threw a kissen at me and I threw one back. After a while I was getting kind of bored, so we turned on the TV. With the sofa bett pulled out, we could see the front yard through the huge window in the living room right Weiter to the bed. I saw the reflection of the TV in the left-top corner of the window and thought it looked cool so I decided to jump on the other couch and look at the TV's reflection through the window. While Tony was still on the sofa bed, I glanced up to the sky and looked at the moon. The moon's light was so bright it shined into the open front yard. I glanced back down into the front yard and suddenly looked away, not knowing what I have just seen. I then realized something was there and looked back into the middle of my front yard. I stared, fright in my eyes, and couldn't look away. Standing in the middle of the yard was this orange, human-like figure. Then the figure started walking forwards towards me as if it was coming for me. My herz was beating so fast, but I had to see if it was just my imagination. I tried blinking, but still, I saw it. As it got closer and closer, I could see it Mehr clearly. What really scared me is that there was no face on this human figure and its body was slightly see through. I couldn't handle this pressure anymore so I quickly closed the curtains and closed my eyes. I gripped those curtains so hard with my sweaty hands, shaking so much; I couldn't think what to do. I thought in my head these exact words, "Lord, I'm scared. Please keep me safe." I opened my eyes, herz still pounding, and then I opened the curtains again. Where had the figure gone? It was nowhere to be found. Could it have been the TV reflection? Then I thought, no it couldn't have because the TV was in the top-left corner of the window; not the middle. Well, could it have been the reflection of Tony in the window? I asked him, and it turned out he was laying down the whole time watching the TV, and I already knew that because I glanced at him a few times while looking out the window. I sat there trying to come up with a solution, but couldn't find a reasonable one since I didn't believe in stuff like that. Still scared, I stood up and went to all the windows to cover them up with curtains. Luckily Tony was there with me oder I would have had a worse reaction.”
After Mehr and Mehr stories went by, the candles where out. We just stared into the darkness and I felt like we were not the only ones there anymore. Chills went up my spine as I thought about each and every story each of us told.
“Come on guys it’s midnight we need to go back home.” I started to throw the unlit candles back into my book bag as quickly as possible and each of them helped.
As we started to leave we heard a noise behind us. It sounded like a wolf howling. All at once we all turned and saw a shadow. A dark, gloomy shadow. And right Weiter to the shadow was a tall man who was fat and wearing a white shirt. It was right Weiter to where we were just sitting, the dead oak tree.
We all just ran as fast as we could not worry about anything but running. Finally we made it to my house. We all panted and our hearts where louder than drums as they banged in our chest.
“I’m going home.” Alex panted and walked across the straße and opened his front door.
“Do Du want me to walk Du home?” I asked Cali. She looks so scared I thought. I should have never brought her to play that game. What kind of boyfriend wanted to scare their girlfriend like that?
“No thanks, I was going to ask Du if I could stay the night.”
“Yes Du can.” I put my arm around her and led her into my house happy to not be the only one in the house.

“Do Du want me to walk Du home?” I asked Cali. She looks so scared I thought. I should have never brought her to play that game. What kind of boyfriend wanted to scare their girlfriend like that?
“No thanks, I was going to ask Du if I could stay the night.”
“Yes Du can.” I put my arm around her and led her into my house happy to not be the only one in the house.
what a stupid! love! love! love! "i Liebe love" "everybody needs to be a lover" "true love" all those stupid words! "bla bla bla"
Liebe is a legend, there's nothing u can call it "love" , Du can't even define it. Du know why? because it isn't there! that's why Du can't say i am in Liebe and say the same word after two years oder two days.
Du see, if it worked with your lover, Du 'll say Du loved each other, and if it didn't work, you'll say it wasn't love!!!
Du are all stupid, lovers!
Du aren't even "lovers"
because "lovers" is a word from "love" and love's a legend.
when i heard this once when i was young, i didn't believe it.
but know i believe it's the truth, and there's nothing else truth.
Du may not believe me now, but Du will, in few years in your life.
Liebe is a legend.
