It is the 7th month in the lunar year. This month is also called ”The Hungry Ghost Festival”, when the gates of hell is opened to allow the souls of the dead to roam the earth. My mother used to warn me not to stay out late at night during this month. Swimming is also a no-no.
Something eerie happened a few nights ago. At about 1 am, I was abruptly awaken by a sharp smash. Jumping out of bed, I dashed to my mother’s bedroom in a spilt second. With the lights switched on, a glass cup was found shattered on the floor. Both mum and Sutiyah were sleeping when the incident happened. There was no earthquake. There was no rats or pets in the house. How did the glass cup got propelled out of the table top?
Next thing.... my bedroom window panel was flipped up but some time later, I found them fully flipped down. Well that could be the result of a kaypo neighbour......hopefully..
Was it a sign or a warning or a message? Don't think so and I do not want complications. Anyway I was not scared. I have been staying in this apartment for the past 20 years. I am sure we are well protected. We will not be harmed. Probably it was a playful act. By who or what, I do not want to know.
This happened when I was in secondary school many years ago. My mum was talking to the neighbour. Someone's child had died recently. The mother went to a medium to find out. After some questioning the medium told the weeping mother that the table she had put her baby on when they were at the Chinese wayang, was a side table where food was normally placed before transferring to the alter. Some ghosts saw it and not being patient enough to wait for the food to be placed on the altar, they went for it... the baby.... and literally tore it to pieces.... True or not? Who knows. But that's the story anyway.
