"He's lying! He's just trying to scare us!"
"You don't have to believe me," I said with a casual shrug. "Just go check that bathroom over there. You'll see the ghost of the lady who roams this pool. She has long dark hair and pale skin. If you're brave enough, go take a look."
The group hesitated for a moment, exchanging uneasy glances. Then the same cocky kid puffed up again.
"Guys, just follow me. I'll show you there's nothing there," he declared, trying to act like the leader.
The whole group quickly climbed out of the pool, water dripping from their bodies, and marched toward the bathroom where Helen was taking a shower.
I had told her earlier to clean her hair, so I knew she would be standing under the water with her long, dark hair down in front of her, completely naked and unaware.
I watched them go with a small, satisfied smirk, knowing exactly what they were about to walk in on.
