THE STRANGE MAN

The strange man 3


After my two encounter with this strange man, I haven't heard from him in a while, I summoned courage to pass that lonely road I passed that day in hope that I will see him and be able to confront him but it was abortive, so I concluded that he was a figment of my imagination, my nana has been bedridden for a while, so mom has brought her to stay with us till she gets better but I had this feeling, nana is about to leave this world,I check up on her everyday before going to school, there's this particular day, nana seemed very well than before, she stood up for the first time in a very long time from her bed infact she made me a handmade bracelet and prepared my lunch that day, I was so happy seeing her healthy maybe I was wrong after all, I smiled sheepishly as I head out, I still couldn't bring myself to believe that the strange man was my imagination so I decide to give it a last try I passed the lonely road once again, I walked for some minutes and saw no one, I was about to be dissappointed when I sensed his aura, this time around the smell emitting from him was a pleasant one and I turned to face him, he was having a pleasant look this time around, I summoned courage and confront him "who are you?"I asked the strange man with boldness "I noticed you could see me from our very first encounter" he said, I looked at him strangely not understanding what he meant "I don't know what I am either, but I shall be visiting your place again this evening maybe then we can find out" he answered and walked away unable to comprehend what he was talking about,I turned around to clear my confusion, alas! He has gone so fast like a rushing wind.
