1999

Kevin was walking down the hall with his friends. He kept to the back of the group. Smiling and laughing when everyone else did. He caught sight of his sister and said bye to them.

"Hey, Alice." He smiled.

"Hey." She flatly replied. His smile faded.

"What is it? You ok?" He touched her shoulder. Her eyes were filling with tears as she stood at the locker. She began to shake and sniffle. Kevin put his arm around his little sister and helped her to the nurse.


Kevin patiently sat outside the nurse's room. He could see her talking to his little sister through the doctors office window.

He hummed and twiddled his thumbs. He didn't like it when his sister was upset.

Alice had always been a bit different. He knew it. Their parents didn't believe it but he did. Alice wasn't his biological sister, but his adopted one. When she was 1 her parents abandoned her at a graveyard. She had gone to two other foster homes before they took her in.


"I can't help you if you don't take me seriously." The nurse snapped at her.

"I am being serious." She cried. The nurse rolled her eyes.

"I'm calling your parents." She stormed to her desk and slammed the door to the little doctors office.

Alice looked at the bed across from her and whimpered. She looked into the eyes of the ghost sitting there.

"Why are you here again?"

"You're doing well. That's why. It's my job to make your life a living hell."

"I haven't done anything to you." She cried.

"You're parents left you with me for a reason." The figure smirked. Then he got quiet and just watched her.

She began to feel light-headed and passed out.


Kevin stood up and ran to the window. He hit it a few times.

"Alice!"

This caught the nurses attention and she went back into the office and gasped running and kneeing beside her.

They called an ambulance. Alice could remember vaguely seeing what happened as she was loaded in. The last image in her mind was the man that always showed up.
