"Beetlejuice, you know what date is coming soon?" asked Lydia to her husband. The small and petite women with the red spider shirt, black long pants and black sandal-like shoes, come close to her husband, the ghost with the black and white stripe suit, lavender color shirt, black ties and black boots. She haven't change or age a bit, the moment that Anabella death, Lydia haven't age, by now she should have the body of a 70-year-old mortal, but she looked like she is in her 30's. Up to this day she and Beetlejuice have been baffle with questions; if this was Anabella's doing?

She now is full residential of the Netherworld, since she doesn't have much in the real world that hold her. Beside she's supposed to be an old woman and going to the real world looking rather the opposite would create more red flag, if she was to come to the real world would be anywhere except the Peaceful Pines. Well, until the rest of the people who know her are still alive. Her father and Delia are residents there too, he died of a heart attack 20 years ago and Delia just came to pass 3 years ago, she died very old in the operating table, having one of those plastic surgeries that were to try to make her look young. So you can say that the Deetz family know about Beetlejuice and became one big family with the Juice family. Charles, Delia, Gnat, Bea and Donny would go to visit the Roadhouse more frequent, much to the displeasure of Beetlejuice.

"No, babes, what?" The Ghost with the Most acted like he didn't have a clue of what she was talking. But of course he knew, its their anniversary and their favorite holiday of the year, Halloween. Have been 40 years that they got together in marriage, after a series of events that menace to separate them. But that would be better for another story, huh?

"Beetlejuice?!" Lydia giving that looked, that he like to see, that she was getting annoyed, he could hold it any longer and start to laugh, making Lydia laugh as well.

"Babes, you think I would forget one of the most important days in my after-life." Beetlejuice said it to peace up his wifey, many things have change since the marriage, for once the curse of 3 time name, and the puns transformation had been lifted. Still he would need his Lyds to leave the Netherworld, because she was still considered alive and his wife can call him by his name freely. Now he was a semi-retire prankter, husband and father. The Roadhouse have been cleaner since Lydia moved in and he have taken a couple of bath in the years, to Bea Juice happiness, he only needed to get a job and that would make Gnat happy. (JOB! bleh, like that would ever happened) Beetlejuice thought to himself.

"ohh, Beej!" embracing in a hug, later to her to pull his tie toward her so their lips could be connected in a kiss. As the kiss continue and their hand start to get active, Lydia unbuttoning his shirt and he placing his hand under hers, and before anything else would go from there.

"Yo, you two get a ROOM!" Ben scream as he was covering his eyes from such a view. That was too much, he knew that his parents really love each other and after all those years have passion in the relationship, but from affection to see his parent in a foul play was traumaticing.

"Well, that's not a bad idea." reply Beetlejuice making some eyes movement indicating to his wife to the direction of their bedroom, but Lydia got separated from him and walked to her son.

"Any luck Ben?" looking at the distraught face that her son gave, not knowing it was for his predicament or the scene that just witness.

"Well, I talked to her."

"That's good, son, that's a start." Beetlejuice stated a little frustrated for the interruption of that moment of privacy, but his son need him now.

"Her name now is Eliza, she's a police officer and live in a house with another young woman and two small children. That's all I could get so far. She doesn't remember nothing, even mentioning Peaceful Pines didn't make the trick." He walk and sit in the sofa of the un-living room. "I even applying for the police to get close to her, not knowing if that's gonna work."

"Ben, some things take time, at least you found her and hopefully still have a chance to win her over, again." Lydia placing one hand on his shoulder and the other on top of his head. "Do you still love her, son?"

"When I saw her, I fell in love all over again. I can't simply leave her there."

"Son, remember that now she's not your wife anymore, your wife Anabella died that day and she's a reincarnation. Anabella is there is her soul, but now she goes by another name. If your meant to be, it will happened. Until she fell in love you can gain her and make her remember you, on the contrary she will forget you completely and move on with her new love. Just as Juno told you about reincarnation."

"But Juno wouldn't actually tell me that Anabella was a reincarnation, because of the "client privacy," how I know that for sure. Beside Dad happened to have the same predicament that me, they erase your memory Mom." Ben didn't like to be reminded that he may have lost his Anabella forever and specially get angry when Juno doesn't tell him the thing, talk in neutrality and confidentiality. For once would like that someone would tell him, the fact, such as that woman is actually Anabella and that he have to do "this" to jog her memory back and have a happy ending. But the Netherworld and the real world wouldn't make it that simple, look more like it was for amuzement or torment that they do those thing to the living, the dead or in his case the hybrid. He remember the story that his father told him once of the time that the Power All Be erase Lydia's after the marriage fiasco and the first time they fell in love, sent her back to be a 12-year-old and his father was force to become her best friend. But his father was pacient and won her over, and now their together. So why he can't try to.

"You said it son, they erase Lydia's memory, she didn't died, Anabella did died, her body was destroyed and her soul went to the Upperworld, the thing may look similar but still are different." Beetlejuice as much he like to mess with other and bust their balls, he didn't like to say that to his son. He maybe a 600 plus years ghost, but Ben is his son, and as any father want to give hope and make his son happy. "But remember you're a Juice and we don't go by the rules. So keep that in mind and fight." Trying to lift his son beat down attitude, still wondering himself if that would help.

It was getting late and if he wanted to be able to continue his approach tomorrow with Eliza and do those stupid thing, he need his rest. He came to his bedroom and change to his red printed spider pijama and lay on his bed. But only could do during the night was to think of the day that was approaching, what talked to his parents and of her. Would Eliza really be his Anabella? Do he have a chance with her? Do he have to give her up and let her live her "human" life? NO! He won't do that, after many years of searching, crying for his loss and to give up as he just found her.
