Chapter 1.
"Who are you?"
"I am Miranda."
"Why are you in my bedroom?"
"Looking for a friend. Will you be my friend?"
I sat for a while in silence thinking. "Wanna play with my dolls?"
Miranda and I sat there playing for a while before my mum came in to tell me it was lunch time.
"Can my friend have lunch too mummy?" I asked
"Friend? What friend?" She asked
"She is right here mummy." I said pointing to Miranda.
"She can't see me," Miranda told me.
"Oh..."
"Is your friend invisible Elanor?"
"Never mind mummy" I said.
I went to the kitchen and sat at the table. Mummy bought me some sandwiches and juice. I gobbled them down so quickly I was almost sick.
"Thanks mummy," I said running back to my room but when I got there Miranda had disappeared.
Later that afternoon when I was outside playing on the swing I saw Miranda again. She was sitting on one of the chairs watching me.
"Where did you go?" I asked sitting next to her.
"I thought it best if I left for a while. Didn't want your mummy to worry."
"Why can't mummy see you?" I asked.
"I am a ghost Elanor. Only a select few people can see ghosts. They are the chosen ones. You are a chosen one."
"What is a chosen one?"
"The chosen ones are picked by the high lord of heaven. You are given the power to see and communicate with us ghosts to help us reach the other side. I am here to teach you what you need to know to to help us. I warn you some of us are horrible. I am a friendly ghost but there are a lot who are not. I will help you as much as I can."
"Oh...wow...ok we'll where do we start?"
