The ghost on the bridge

It was midnight.....Jane and her friend were walking towards mary's house on a silent desserted narrow short cut.....
Mary was Jane's cousin and jane had not visited her since many years. They were supposed to be there quiet early but when they had almost reached the car suddenly stopped.....Jane got down and examined the car.there was no reason for the car to stop as it was been repaired just a day ago. jane went and came back in no time with a mechanic. after examining the car the mechanic said it wouldn't be repaired right now and took it to the garage...
Jane and her friend were not very far from Mary's house so they preffered to walk and go rather than hiring a taxi.....
Jane knew a shortcut to the house so the set off on that road.there was pin drop silent on the road and Jane's friend eliza started getting scared."Jane I don't think this place is good, we should turn back at once;look it is so silent and nobody around..."Eliza I agree with u but this place is not so silent. People stay here. It is just because we are walking here in the midnight; everyone is sleeping. don't wory once we cross the bridge we willl take just 2 minutes to reach home" Jane consoled her.
When they came near the bridge they saw a girl of about 21/22 in all white clothes sitting and crying. Her face was covered with a scarf. Eliza got to scared..!but Jane didnt she thought she should ask the girl what's the matter, but Eliza stoped her from doing so and the walked past her....
After a while Jane heard footsteps following them. She turned around to find that the same girl whom they had seen near the bridge was following them. Now Jane gathered up courage and asked what was the matter, but she remained silent. Even after asking a number of times she spoke nothing and just groaned silently. considering she was som mad girl the walked on. But the girl continued to follow them. Eliza was feeling more uneasy as the footsteps continued to follow..suddenly she turned back and shouted at the girl,"who the hell are you why are you following us, just get away from here..!!!" saying this Eliza turned and was about to walk but while turnig she got a glimpse of something from the corner of the eye which was something unusual but she couldnt ressemble what it was...she turned again and a loud gasp escaped her mouth...the girl's legs were in opposite direction....!!!! she was a ghost!!! hearing the gasp Jane too turned back and was equally horrified!!! both of them startes running the girl was still following slowly with silent steps...Both of them daern't look back before they reached Mary's house. Jane turned and a sigh of relief escaped her mouth. teh girl was gone. Eliza rung the bell...but when the door was opened they were dumbstruck by fear...the giel in the white clothes was standing in the door.....
But the real shock of fear had still to come. when the girl removed her scarf they found themselves starring at Jane's cousin.........
MARY....!!!!!!!
