Saya's note: I translated this story quite a while ago (maybe it was last year) and left it unpublished thinking it wasn't scary enough... But now I don't have much time updating the blog I decided to publish it anyway...
When I stepped out of the tube station, it was raining heavily outside. I opened my umbrella and started walking. But something was wrong. The atmosphere was somehow very unpleasant.
Strange.....
Every single person I walked past didn't have an umbrella over them. Everyone was silent and looking grim; and they walked on, all facing the same direction.
Then suddenly a taxi stopped by, and the driver put out his hand and beckoned me to come over. I gestured to him that I didn't need a taxi, but the taxi-driver said, "Come on, get in!"
He was so insistent that I had to give in. Besides I wanted to get away from this unpleasant atmosphere.
Later, the driver, pale-faced, said to me;
"Well, you know..When I saw you walking as if you were trying to avoid bumping into people on an empty street, I thought I should help you...."
I think the taxi driver knew who they were dealing with?

1)The person had a sixth sense and because of this strong psychic strength he was able to see the spirits of dead pedestrians or..
2)He was mentally disturbed and was hallucinating cause he was suffering from clinical paranoia...
And I think this was rather creepy, but really cool too.
Thank you!
More, more more!!! PLease?!:)))
I wonder if I'd have done the same thing; I might not, thinking he'd be a pervert or something--then I'd have missed a chance in finding an actually good guy.. T_T
Thanks for the good read!

It's obvious he knew what was going on; if a driver just sees a person tumbling around in an empty street, they usually think him drunk and go on.
Go SAYA!!! ^_^
So, I start reading your stories from 2007 until now (2013), and I am not yet to finish..
Thank you so much Saya for updating this blog. I love the way you tell the story, it is not too complicated and too long, straight to the problem and the mystery.
I am a new fan of horror (I was a scaredy cat but time after time I got curious of horror stories and until now, I've challenged myself to watch horror movie and hearing stories so I won't be scared anymore!) and I am truly grateful that I found your blog. Thank you and keep your spirit high!
*p.s. I love this story too! ;D
