This was about the time when I visited my mom before the Pandemic had started. I came to experience a bizarre thing thing while I was there with her. My Mom took me to visit an old relative's house while I was there. The relative was sick with almost no possibility of recovery because he is old and living alone. His son is a rich guy who cares less about his parents. His wife died couple of years ago and it is said that he felt sick immediately after her demise and never actually recovered. He keeps murmuring things and no one could figure out what or why. Everyone just wrote that off as something that old people do. I felt sorry for him even though I absolutely have no idea about him or his life
I asked the old man, "why don't you ask your son to admit you into a hospital grandpa?". For a minute, he just stared at me and he slowly nodded his head to right and left as a symbol that he is saying no. I did not pay much attention after that except praying silently that he should not suffer like that. Staying in bed for almost a year seriously sucks. He used to walk miles per day when his wife was alive and now it pains me to see him bed ridden. I prayed God to either give him strength to recover quickly or just take him off this suffering. While I was in my thoughts, his neighbor who takes care of his food and related stuff (who is also a relative) came to her house and my Mom, grandma went to talk to her about his condition while I stayed back inside.
After a while, that old man started moving his hands in the air towards a corner in that old small room. Though it was evening, his house was surprisingly dark. He was in his bed room which is much darker than the hallway. He rose his hand and started calling someone and kept staring towards the corner. I was confused and looked back to see a pale old woman like lady staring right back at him.
I stood from my chair immediately and ran outside after giving one more glance towards the woman who is now looking at me. I ran to the neighbors house and literally shouted for my Mom and everyone came outside. I told them everything about it and my neighbor stood there like a wall staring right at me and she slowly told, "and yet, no one believed me"
My mom asked her "what?" and she said, "couple of days ago, I went to clean his bed and change the sheets. He was taken to the local hospital for a check up and I was arranging things for him and cleaning his room when I smelled something foul. I was in that room for an hour and it surprised me when I was smelling that foul aroma just a minute before. I looked around for feces or for any dead animal and saw that dark shadow like object floating at the corner of the room. I could not figure out the face of the shadow but it looked very disturbing. I ran to my house and immediately asked his son to appoint a house maid for them because I was scared to go back. They called me crazy but they did what I told. So now, I just cook for him and give the food to the maid to feed him. No one trusted me. Now you saw it too"
I told her, "but I saw the face. She looked like an old woman". My neighbor thought for a while and she said, "wait here" and went inside. After a while, she came by holding a paper in her hands. She showed it to me and asked, "is that her??". I was shocked to see that similar old creepy face and said, "yes, it is her. who is she?". Neighbor aunt replied, "it's his wife. This is the news clipping of her demise that they advertised in the local news paper".
Well, we all stood there for a while and thought that his wife is visiting him after her death and he is sick constantly because she might want his husband to leave the world and go live with her. who knows?? I just wished that he dies naturally without any pain and that she won't hurt her husband for her selfishness.
