Next day – day 2-Just another day, starting the day with a coffee, some old news, and some music. Hmm… no dream, that’s bad. I really hoped I would dream again. Maybe it was just a strange dream, I do have enough of those. On the other hand, the way that young woman was looking still haunts me a bit, and the curiosity even more. How many crimes did this city witness over the years? Hmm… if I think of that young woman and how she was dressed, I guess she died around 1900, maybe the first part of it. Hmm… I’m thinking too much of this it was just a dream. Maybe I’m too bored lately. Just work, nothing too exciting, even if an old crime can be just a mystery, not really something that exciting.
Hmm… too much thinking and it’s getting late, too late. I need to get ready for work. Need to decide quickly what I’m wearing today. It seems it won’t be that cold, so maybe I can wear just some pants, a shirt, and a light jacket. Yep, that’s what it shall be. Hmm… let’s see which ones. Yep,these ones: some black elegant pants and a dark red shirt. That will do. Let’s look a bit in the mirror. Oh yes, some makeup, some black will do. My curly hair looks kind of okay, so that’s it. Ready to go out. I hope I won’t be late. I’ll take a walk to work as usual.
Hmm… unfortunately at work, same struggle, same people. No wonder I’m starting to think of strange dreams. For sure I need something more exciting. Good thing tonight is Friday. So maybe no more hunting old buildings, maybe a drink out with some friends. I guess that will get me out of this kind of mood.
The day is passing slowly, even more so when your mind runs from old houses that might be haunted to getting out to have a drink. Finally, no more calls, free for the day. So, let’s see who wants to join me for a drink?
Hmm… let’s think who will be free and in the mood to go out. Well, let’s start to call… After a few calls, finally I found some people that are in the mood for a drink. We shall meet and go . I hope they won’t be late. Now, let’s find a nice place for a drink. Hmm… maybe a place with history or, even better, with a view. Maybe I can find an old, nice building. Hmm… I have to stop thinking for a while, at least for now. In the end, it was probably just a dream.
So, I chose a place with a view. We are on the 6th floor , quite a view, we can see enough of the city and have a drink. The music is loud, but still we can enjoy it. People are not yet dancing; it’s too early.
Talking with some nice friends outside on the terrace, but still my mind goes to that old house… damn. Hmm… there is one of my friends that likes history hmm.. shall I ask? Crime or old buildings?
I think I’ll start with old buildings.
-“Hi there! Nice to see you! Anything new?”
-“Not much.”
-“Hmm, I see… just work as usual?”
-“Hmm, thought so… yes, same here.”
-“Are you still into history and old buildings?”
-“Yes, why?”
-“I’m having a curiosity lately about old houses and ghosts. Do you know that kind of history?”
-“Yes, there are a few old buildings nearby that are supposed to be haunted. Why? Have you seen a ghost?”
-“No, but I’m looking for one.” Smiling.
After a nice, funny talk, I got a new list with old buildings. I did say in a joking way that I’m searching for a ghost — he probably thought I was joking, but hmm… I wasn’t. Now some sleep for me; otherwise, tomorrow I’ll just dream about ghosts and not search for buildings with ghosts.
