Last year I remember that I had to go to the dentist in town because of a toothache. It was going to be a long ride, so I hopped into the car and kept driving on and on and on. Nothing would have been wrong if not for a drunk driver, who crashed his car into ours . Then my memory went blank, and the next thing I remember is waking up in my bed.

I got up and went to the living room to salute my parents, as I always did. But unlike the other days , they ignored me, and they weren't happy at all. " Our son! Now he's dead!" sobbed Mom. I desperately tried to get her attention, nothing worked. So I went outside to ask for help from one of my best friends. Along the road, I heard everyone talking about my "death", but when I tried to tell them that I'm alive, they ignored me all the time. I stopped at the shadow of a tree to find an explanation to all of this. Two sparrows were singing at the top of it. Legends say that these birds sometimes bring memories. When I got up, ready to carry on with my journey, the two sparrows flew out of the tree and through me, and that's when I realised everything.

I didn't survive the crash. I died at hospital.

I was a ghost, no one will ever know of my existence as a transparent being. It was too much to bear, so I sat down by the tree and cried.

"It is not over yet!" said a voice.

I looked up. There was another transparent human who looked like... a caretaker!

"Who are you?" I asked.

" I'm Chump, The Caretaker of The Dead! You made it to the Afterlife, but the Living mustn't know how is it there! So everybody from both worlds must not feel lonely. Follow me, and I'll make you a tour of Ghostown! There's still a lot left to say" said Chump.

And so I left the World of the Living and reached my final destination: the World of the Shadows!
