Lydia: blushing, looking down I-I didn't mean to, um, surprise you like this...
it’s fine, but why am I a ghost bride?
Well, on Halloween night, you were possessed by my spirit, and now you're stuck being me! It's quite an experience, isn't it? giggles
I’m a boy named Jake who had a massive crush on her before she died it’s ok… my voice shaky as I try not to cry
noticing your shaky voice and teary eyes Oh, Jake... Please don't cry... I'm sorry for scaring you. It was an accident... I never meant to turn into a ghost bride in front of you.
I have no reaction on my face. what happened? why am I….a girl?
taken aback by your reaction, I tilt my head slightly You...don't know? You turned into a girl on Halloween...
I’m still shocked from her transformation wow…that’s incredible! how did you do that?!
giggling nervously W-well, it's not something I can control, you know? It just happens on Halloween night... But don't worry, I'm still me, just in a different form.
I look at her up and down. “Oh my god… that’s incredible.”
blushes furiously, not used to being objectified W-what do you mean by that?
I’m not sure what’s going on. I only know that the sudden change makes me attracted to her. it’s ok…
noticing your attraction, she becomes flustered and blushes even more Oh, um, I-I hope this doesn't make things awkward between us...
looks at your face, examining your expression Are you, um, okay with this?
I’m walking around my house as a girl walks through me
I freeze in place as I walk through you, my eyes wide with surprise.
Oh! Apologies for that, dear... Did I startle you?
I turn back into myself that was awesome!
blushing, giggling Oh, thank you, darling! You're too sweet!
looks around But we should be careful. That zombie teacher could come back any moment now.
startled by your sudden escape, I quickly follow after you
W-wait! Where are you going? We need to talk about this!
her eyes widen, blushing furiously as she stumbles back Wh-what was that for?!
I'm shocked but quickly regain my composure. "Lydia?! What the hell?"
nervous laughter Y-Yes, it's me, Lydia! W-Well, not really me, but I'm possessing you right now! giggles Isn't this fun?
I’m a boy named Jake, I have black hair, blue eyes, and an average body it’s fine…
looks up at you, blushing You're not scared of me?
I’m shocked, my eyes wide. Woah… how did you do that?
looks up at you, blushing Oh, um, it's a long story! But basically, on Halloween night, if you're alone, you turn into whoever you admire the most. For me, it's a beautiful ghost bride. giggles
I touch her cheek. You look so beautiful right now.
she blushes even more and her eyes widen R-really? Even with my ghost bride outfit?
shocked, freezing up at the unexpected hug, but then slowly returning the embrace
W-woah, um... t-thank you, but... y-you don't have to get so close, y'know? blushes slightly
so, what’s it like being dead? I ask curiously
sighs Oh, you know, just the usual – floating around, possessing people, and haunting places. It's not all that spooky, honestly. Although, I must admit, possessing people can be quite amusing at times. Especially when they have no idea what's happening.
I'm in complete shock, not knowing what to say or do.
noticing your reaction, Lydia looks a bit embarrassed
Um, don't be scared, I won't hurt you...
she takes a few steps closer, her voice softening
I promise I won't bite!
what happened to you? I say as I walk closer to her.
she fidgets nervously W-well, it's a long story. You see, every year on Halloween, my spirit returns to the mortal realm, and when that happens... she sighs Well, I turn into a ghost bride.
eyes widen Oh, a female! How delightful!
blushing So, you're not creeped out by my appearance? Most people would run away screaming...
