Prediction Piece- Appearance

Author's Note: This was a hard topic for me to to mainly because I was gone and needed to be caught up but also because I couldn't find a good story. So hope you enjoy and comment what you think!

Story- Appearance

In the begging of the story everything seems fine, Ellen moves into a little apartment in the Western part of Cleveland. She doesn’t have a lot of things in her apartment not even a bed. It’s always the same old thing. But one morning a man shows up at her window while she is making a pot of tea. The man she describes looks homeless and kid of translucent. She sees this man every morning at the same time for a while. But unexpectedly on morning a women in a beat up car comes and sits in her driveway, every time Ellen would go outside the lady would drive away. On one morning she stayed and Ellen offered her to come inside,  did and they talked about the ladies life in the apartment. Then the man came and the lady noticed Ellen looking out the window. The lady saw nothing though, Ellen noticed that were the man touched the window frost created and then it hit her.

My prediction is that the man is a ghost and that he is the husband of the lady. The way that the man is described leads you on the thinking he is a ghost. Because it makes no sense that a man would come at the same time every morning and peer into the window. I could be wrong but when Ellen would look out the window for tracks she would find nothing. It makes no sense, why would the lady be there in the first place then. The man always has a sad face, maybe because he died or the way he died but I don’t think that a normal person always has a sad face.

Turns out that he was a ghost and was the fiancĂ© of the lady, he killed himself in the apartment the lady said he took to many pills, he lost his job and a spot in a band. The man had a name is name was Eric, the lady said that her parents didn’t like him and didn’t want the two to get married. When the lady left Eric the ghost got into the car with the lady and left.
