Still Mad

I woke up in the middle of the night feeling hungry and went down to the kitchen. I had leftover pizza in the fridge that would really hit the spot.

Bob was sitting at the table, as if he were expecting me. I ignored him as I took out the plate and put it in the microwave. I wasn’t happy about how our last conversation had ended so I was annoyed to see him here, like nothing had happened.

He finally spoke. “Are you still mad?”

I chose not to respond. I have a longstanding rule against speaking to ghosts.
