Sweet Sixteen (Ghost?)

It was June 18 2002, it was my Sweet Sixteen. Everything was marvelous until it was time to get dressed. I got dressed in the church. I had a strange feeling that somebody was watching me. Also, I had friends along. All of a sudden they left to check how the party was going! I was alone and uncomfortable so I rushed and put my dress on.

While looking at myself in the mirror I saw an image. Not a face or a person. It was more like a figure... an awkward one as a matter of fact. Well walking outside, my friend Alberto took a picture of me.

So while viewing the picture I saw the figure again. I enjoyed that night but I was still scared.
