There were a lot of things going on in my life at this time. I had just moved out from girlfriends apartment about a half a mile away into a kitchenette motel. Our parting was well needed since I had not been out on my own for several years and she was heading in a different direction.

I didn't really notice anything out of the ordinary until about 3three months of residing there. Now, I am a spiritual person and I have seen apparitions since I was a child but my revelations had never been witnessed my anyone other that myself. I had a great job, advancing rapidly through a fledging telecommunications company that was a subcontractor for another fortune 500.

Around Christmas time of 1996 I began strange shadowy figures in the outline of my kitchen window. Most of the time I would ignore what I thought were hallucinations only to find that sleep paralysis would sometimes prevent from telling these figures to keep their distance; I knew that they were spirits and I wished them no harm. They never really bothered me, just a nuisance in the night. Now, If you are familiar with kitchenettes you have one large bedroom or living area, a bath and a 12x20 kitchen. Sleeping at the top of the bed you can look right out the kitchen window either at the sun or the moon. But even in the night you can not mistake drawn shade for a spirit.

In May of 1997 My nephew Russ came to live with me to seek employment where I worked at and I made him feel as comfortable as I could considering the limited space. While he waited for a reply from my employer on his job status he often had to spend a lot of time alone and frequently he would be distant and uneasy when I returned home, so I attributed to wariness about not being employed. However, right after June 1, his brother(Ry) also came to seek employment. So, you can imagine three adult males all living in a kitchenette and at least one sleeping on the floor, him of course. Well, UN-known to me my nephew also had the ability to see beyond our own world, and his visions were also kept secret; just him, his brother and his mom(my sister) knew about it.

It did not take him long to figure out what was going on in the apartment. After a week he admitted that he had seen something in the night and it had touched him. Me without thinking admitted, me too! As if bragging because someone had finally seen what I had seen all alone as a child. But Ry was 23 years and frightened. So, what did it look like? Was it a she? Yes, was his reply but she didn't like me and wouldn't let me sleep. Now, Russ also repeated the same thing. "But didn't want to tell you" was his excuse He described this person in detail and damn if it wasn't the same thing I had seen. Serene, yet persistent if it didn't like you. I laughed, she goes away if you tell her, finally finding some relief in the fact that I wasn't crazy all those years. No, she won't, "she's looking for something I just don't know what" was Rys reply.

For the next 2 weeks my visitor made life unbearable for my nephews. Lost keys, haunting in broad daylight, I mean visuals and everything. White vapor clouds dissipating clouds, even some nights sighing. But never really bothering me. Well, Ry move back home after two weeks and Russ followed, claiming as I had witnessed the mischief that this uneasy spirit had. I don’t know if there was too much psychic energy in that one location(between myself and my nephew) or if this spirit just wanted me there alone. Well, I had been inquiring the whole time about another bigger apartment.

Even thought she hadn't bothered me in about three days after they had left, I jumped at the opportunity to move someplace larger. Well, the clincher came when I was about to move out. As I packed my clothing and belongings the room became quite cold and dark even though I had plenty of light. The refrigerator door open, shades were drawn by themselves to reveal little light, and the bathroom door closed. I left in a hurry, I could sense its loneliness. But know 5 years later as I sit her typing this story, I can not forget this entity because I still feel her, nudging me in my sleep. And this is three apartments later!!!!
