history: I thought I saw a ghost last night. I thought I saw a ghost in my kitchen last night. I screamed! I would have totally screamed! Were you alone? What did you do?
current: Yes I was. I turned on the light and it was the shadow of a tree. It really gave me a scare!
next: I bet it did. I'm glad you were able to figure out what it was and hopefully you got some sleep afterwards.
