This incident dates back to my father’s youth. When he was around ten or twelve, he and his cousin were sleeping on a fold-out couch in the downstairs living room. It was during the night, while everyone else was asleep, that an extraordinary event unfolded.
My father’s attention was drawn to the window pane, where the medal bars seemed to illuminate, resembling the flow of electricity. This electrifying phenomenon coalesced into a ball of energy that hovered across the living room. Its trajectory led it to the thermo-stat, seemingly merging with it. In an instant, the entire house plunged into silence. The air-conditioning ceased, and the lights flickered off.
The abrupt cessation was as astonishing as the spectacle itself. After a short interval, normalcy was restored. The air-conditioning hummed back to life, and the lights blinked on. My father and his cousin exchanged incredulous glances, both having witnessed the same uncanny occurrence.
Adding an eerie twist to the tale, my great-grandfather had passed away just a week prior. Intriguingly, my father’s cousin shared that he thought he saw their grandfather’s face within the mysterious, floating ball of energy. The connection between the timing of the event and the recent loss raised questions about whether this phenomenon was mere electricity or a potential farewell from the spiritual realm.
