After leaving school I went to work for the Southern Counties Bus Company
I stayed there for over five years working mainly as a bus conductor
But later in administration at the main depot In Portsmouth
It was there that I met Maureen who later became my wife
Sadly when little Geraldine came along I was forced to look for more money
Which I achieved and I now work as a draughtsman at Stokes Brothers
It was because of this change of direction that we was soon able to buy a flat
Our flat was situated on a busy road and I was able to see the local buses passing by
Many were crewed by my ex colleagues and friends who I had kept in touch with
However of late I have noticed something that has really unnerved me
As I believe I have seen a ghost on the last bus of the day
Which returns empty to the depot with its lights dimmed
The figure who appears to be an middle aged man sits kerbside
In the same seat on the upper deck two from the back
He always looks up at me without expression as the bus passes by
I have spoken to my ex colleagues about this and they have assured me
That the ninety-one bus always runs empty after Empire Square
I have also been invited to ride on the final bus but have found it to be empty
Others aware of the story have also sat on the upper deck of this bus
But have reported nothing odd happening throughout the journey
The chilling thing is that I have clearly seen them pass my flat
Along with the middle aged man kerbside
Sitting In the same seat on the upper deck
Two steps from the back
Staring at me without expression
