Esther quickly calmed down at Gradon's warm and comforting touch, and that made her realize that she had been clinging into the boy's arm, even to the point of pushing her breasts to him. Esther's face quickly reddened as she released her grip at him and said, "I-I'm sorry! I-it's just that I hear voices out of nowhere and no one else seems to be hearing it! A-and it sounds like a crying child so I think it must be a spirit of a dead child that has perished here in the past!" She bowed deeply towards the boy. Anything to stave off her embarrassment.

Suddenly, she saw Althea, who had joined them to ask what was all the fuss about, yanked away from the group, as if an invisible force had taken grip of her. 

"A-Althea!" Esther shouted. "O-oh no, t-the ghost got her!" Esther felt like she wanted to cry. This was straight out of a horror novel, where the ghost would slowly take out the group one by one by separating them.
