“That look! There’s something moving by the greenhouse.” Hissed Raj. Something glided silently past the panes of glass which shone in the moonlight.  
“Yes! I can see it now.” Whispered Sara.”  
“It’s fox Raj.” Whispered Sarah.
“ No I don’t think so! It’s too tall. It’s more like a small person, perhaps a child.”  Raj looked towards the greenhouse.   He breathed.
 “There it is again! Did you see it Sara?” Sara could not believe her eyes.
“I saw it and I could see through it she said.”  Raj nodded his head
“A ghost!” They both whispered.
