[00:26.30]Coffee Shop Ghost
[00:31.01]咖啡馆幽灵
[00:43.41]After I had cleaned the mess and locked up,
[00:46.78]I couldn't sleep. I kept thinking I wasn't alone.
[00:53.95]A few days later at about 2:00 in the afternoon,
[00:57.52]the busy part of my day,
[00:59.50]I was in my room typing
[01:01.06]and heard a commotion 1 in the front.
[01:04.06]I hurried to the door
[01:05.78]thinking we were being robbed.
[01:09.42]I opened it and there were customers
[01:11.52]lining up in front of the register
[01:14.05]covered from head to toe in coffee foam 2 or soda 3.
[01:18.88]I looked over at the machines
[01:21.00]and they were spraying foam and soda everywhere!
[01:25.40]I rushed over to it and unplugged it,
[01:28.82]now sticky and wet myself.
[01:32.34]I apologized for the inconvenience
[01:34.58]and offered everyone a free breakfast for the next day.
[01:38.54]I closed for clean up and called a repair man.
[01:42.10]He said there was nothing wrong with the machine
[01:44.63]and it was running fine.
[01:47.85]Later, after I had cleaned the mess and ate supper,
[01:51.88]I was sitting at the bar drinking milk
[01:54.15]and balancing my checkbook
[01:55.93]when I saw someone sitting in the corner
[01:57.85]at one of the tables.
[01:59.58]I stood up and said,
[02:02.15]"We are closed. How did you get in?"
[02:04.95]He didn't answer,
[02:06.38]but stood up and walked toward the bar.
[02:10.33]I reached over toward the kitchen knives
[02:12.54](which I keep on the underside
[02:14.12]of the counter for cooking),
[02:16.10]but when I looked back,
[02:17.76]he was not solid anymore,
[02:20.29]but more of a wisp of a shadow figure.
[02:23.79]As I watched, the closer he got,
[02:26.59]the more he continued to fade.
[02:29.54]By the time he reached me, he had vanished.
[02:33.77]Since then, my coffee shop
[02:36.49]has become a 24-hour "haunted coffee shop,"
[02:40.78]where people drop by for supper,
[02:43.99]hoping to see the ghost.
