Every Day Pale Woman Stares at Boy through Old Window and Quickly Hides When He Looks at Her — Story of the Day
A young boy is stunned when he discovers the identity of the mysterious, pale, thin woman who has been watching him secretly.
Will first noticed the tall pale woman watching him through the window of an old house he passed by every day on his way to school. When she saw that he’d noticed her, she quickly hid, but the next day, she was watching him again.
Then she showed up at one of his baseball practices. She was standing half-hidden behind the bleachers, and at first, he thought it was one of the moms sneaking a smoke. But then he saw it was the pale woman from the old house!

When the woman saw that Will was looking at her, she turned away quickly and ran off. After that it seemed to Will that the pale woman was everywhere he went. If he went to the movies with his friends, or for a soda, she was there. It was kind of creepy, like a horror story, or something, so he told his mom.
“Mom,” Will said, pushing his mashed potatoes around the plate for a bit. “Mom, there’s this weirdo following me all the time.”
Esther Roberts set down her knife and fork and stared at her son. “Will, mom and dad have told you that if some strange man…”
“Be cool mom, it’s a woman,” said Will. “She looks like an extra from one of those zombie movies, like a scarecrow or something.”
Will’s dad shook his head. “Listen, I think you’ve been watching too much Netflix! Zombies!”
“Jack,” Esther said. “If Will is feeling disturbed by this person then it’s no joke! Where do you usually see her, Will?”

“Well, I have a baseball game tomorrow,” Will said, “and she usually shows up for those.”
“Then your dad and I will be there,” said Esther firmly. “And if this woman is a stalker we will take action.”
The next afternoon, as Will stepped up to the plate, Esther was scanning the bleachers, looking for her son’s stalker, looking for the tall thin woman. Esther spotted her and nudged her husband.
“Look, over there, next to Heather Jenkins!” she whispered.
Jack looked over and gasped. “Damn! She DOES look a bit like a zombie!”
