Ghost's Patience

Once upon a time, in a spooky old house, there lived a ghost named Ghost. Ghost was different from other ghosts. While other ghosts liked to frighten humans, Ghost was scared of them. Ghost would hide whenever a human approached the house. Ghost's friends, Boo and Casper, tried to convince Ghost that not all humans were scary, but Ghost couldn't overcome the fear.

One day, while Ghost was hiding in the attic, a little girl named Lily moved into the house. Lily loved exploring, and she soon discovered the spooky old house. As Lily entered the attic, Ghost trembled with fear. But instead of screaming or running away, Lily smiled and waved.

Ghost couldn't understand why Lily wasn't scared. Lily gently approached Ghost and said, 'Don't be afraid. I won't harm you.' Ghost cautiously listened to Lily's words and felt a sense of kindness. Over time, Lily and Ghost became friends. Lily would visit the attic every day, bringing stories and treats for Ghost.
