The Ghost Huntress
Prologue
Eleanor is the restaurant owner of "Savoury Eats".But she has secrets which are completely different from what she seem to be.
Eleanor
Hi..I'm the restaurant owner of "Savoury Eats".
Eleanor
I have the passion for cooking but I'm not that good so let me introduce you to my chef.
Eleanor
She's the most versatile person I've ever known. Here she is..
A girl walks in..wearing chef uniform.
Jisoo
Hi..I'm the chef. I'm the versatile person she just talked about.
Eleanor
Indeed and she's proud of it. I'm glad you're here to help me out whenever & also for teaching me how to cook.
Jisoo
It's a piece of cake, moreover you're a fast learner.
Jisoo
So..tonight are we opening or should I go away?
Eleanor
We're open tonight, but not for business.
Jisoo
Oh..tell me about it.
Eleanor
The other day I say a girl still clinging on to one of her...classmate...I guess.
Jisoo
So, what do you plan to do?
Eleanor
He often stops by here so..If we open till late night he'll come in here for sure.Then I'll try to talk to her.
Jisoo
But isn't it risky? I think I'll stay with you.
Eleanor
No. You go home it'll be easier to talk to her without anyone else around.
Jisoo
Okay then. You gotta be careful.
Eleanor
Sure thing. Maybe you can go early today.
Jisoo
Call me if anything happens.
Eleanor
Okay. Bye for now I'll update you later.
The sky has darkened by now and everyone is rushing home.
School going boys and girls are running back home.
Suddenly the door opens...
Edward
Hi..I'd like a cup of hot coffee.
Edward looks young but is in fact a Professor.
Eleanor sees the girl clinging on to Edward...who certainly isn't normal. But she says nothing as he doesn't seem to be aware of that.
She prepares the coffee in a hurry as she sees the girl doing all sorts of mischievous pranks on Edward.
Edward seems so distracted & tired as he keeps on yawning & trying so hard to keep himself awake.
Eleanor
Here's your Coffee Mr.
Eleanor
My pleasure..are you a student?
Edward
A student hahaha..no, no.I'm a Professor.
Eleanor
You look young for a Professor.
Eleanor
Would you like anything else?
As Eleanor says this she pats him on his shoulder.
Edward seems uncomfortable with her touch but says nothing.
Eleanor has placed a talisman which can ward off spirits on his shoulder without him noticing.
Edward
No, thank you. That'll be all.
Eleanor
I see...come often.
She leaves happily thinking she has achieved her mission.
Edward sips his coffee now in a much more comfortable way.
As he seems much lighter & seeing the girl can no longer clinging on to him, Eleanor is happy.
Eleanor
(The talisman must be working)
Edward gets up to leave...
Edward
Thank you for the Coffee. I feel much lighter now.
Eleanor
You're welcome...(Of course you feel lighter, I took a huge burden off you).
As the girl clinging on to Edward tries to go after him...
Eleanor
Where do you think you're going? Stay back.
She seals her with another talisman & makes her stand still.
Unrequited love
She struggles to free herself from the seal.
Eleanor
Don't waste your energy. No one has been able to break off this seal so far.
Eleanor
You better save your breath little girl.
Lin
Who are you calling a little girl?
Eleanor
Set you free? To let you harm that classmate of yours?
Lin
Classmate what classmate?
Eleanor
Don't feign ignorance.
Lin
No, he isn't my classmate. He is my cool professor.
Eleanor
Wow, to think that he is a Professor despite being so young..
Eleanor
No wonder you're still attached to him.
Lin
Of course he is wonderful he published a lot of articles in famous magazines & he's got a double PhD one in English & another in Law. Moreover he wrote new novels recently he is so popular. Despite that he is so humble & has a good personality.
Eleanor
I see you're so obsessed with him..
Lin
Of course who wouldn't be obsessed with Professor Edward?
Eleanor
But your love towards him is tiring him can't you realize that?
Lin
What are you talking about?
Lin
Don't make things up..
Eleanor
See..You're doubting yourself.
Eleanor
Yes you know this is harmful to him .
Eleanor
Can't you notice that he is tired & physically drained with you being around him pestering him?
Eleanor
You know what is real or what is not.
Lin
No he just has been working too hard recently it has nothing to do with me.
Eleanor
Okay it's up to you whether to believe me or not but I'm warning you If you try doing underhanded tricks for getting him I'll immediately make you disappear.
Eleanor
Heed my warning & go say your last goodbye & cross over.
Lin
No..I can't leave him yet.
Eleanor
Don't worry I'll burn paper money for you.
Lin
No, I beg you just half a year, no three months..
Lin
No at least two weeks please.
Eleanor
A week not more not less.
Eleanor
You're in danger of turning something evil if you keep on lingering here.
Eleanor
You yourself know that you're in danger of disappearing or turning evil you've stayed too long.
Eleanor
Your time is almost up you only have a week's time.
Lin
Let me finish up what I've always wanted to do in my lifetime.
Eleanor
Come back here in a week's time. I'll send you peacefully. Or else you yourself know the consequences.
Eleanor removes the seal & she leaves...
Eleanor calls up her friend.
Eleanor
Troublesome...This one's gonna be hard.
Eleanor
Some obsessive love on a Professor.
Jisoo
Professor? I thought you said they were students?
Eleanor
I thought so too, seems that's not the case.
Eleanor
Anyway I gave her a week's time. Let's hope she'll do that.
Jisoo
Hope so.. see you tomorrow let's discuss in detail then.
There's doubt lingering in her mind as she knows this isn't an easy task it always has been this way, after all who'd like to leave behind thier loved ones?
