THREE YEARS AGO…

In the outside was raining but the sixteen-years-old girl was walking on the street. She was wearing a shirt and shorts. Her clothes and hair were wet. It was not clear if she cried or not. She walked slowly not paying attention to anything or anyone. Her look was empty and she felt nothing. She barely knew who she is.

A few minutes ago she was talking to a man, the man who she thought she loved, the one who every time came to help her when she needed it. She had a request and thought he will accept it but he didn't.

She looked at the sky and her eyes become more colorful than a minute ago. At the same time it stopped raining. She took a deep breath and opened her eyes wide.

''I don't want to lose to you again'' She said then smiled painfully. ''I really don't''

She took another step forward and went toward the house.

NOW…

Mai got out of bed and had a terrible headache. It's been a long time since the last time she had this dream. She looked at the window in her room. She stood and walked over to see the view. She was living on the first floor so she saw a beautiful garden. She liked that scenery very much.

''You are looking at that again'' In the room was someone else.

Mai turned around and saw a fifteen-years-old girl. She had long blonde hair and green eyes. She looked beautiful in a white dress.

''Yuki, what are you doing here? You should be in school.''

''I have something more important to do that going to school.'' She answered with confidence that doing the right thing.

''You definitely haven't and school is very important! You shouldn't miss any lessons.''

''I don't care about that. School isn't useful for people like me. I want to be like you were. I want to be a ghost hunter!''

Mai looked at girl's face. She was serious and motivated. She remembered that years ago she was the same as her. She sighed but in a moment she smiled.

''I really shouldn't told you about that stories.''

''No, you should. I am really glad that you did that. Stories about ghosts are really cool!'' Yuki became even happier that before.

She left the room and her steps became less audible. Mai came to the cupboard and took one of the many old books. Cover of the book was destroyed. It's title was ,,How to control your abilities and skills.'' She looked at the first page and brought to mind the first time she was reading that book three years ago. She wanted to become strong so Naru will accept her. Mai wanted to do something that wouldn't make her a victim of spirits one more time and then return to her friends.

That was what she thought three years ago but now she was different. Her purpose changed.

'' What should I do?'' She thought and closed her eyes for a moment but quickly opened them again.

'' You will return to those guys again. I bought you a one-way ticket.'' In her room was a handsome man with dark hair and green eyes.

Mai was shocked when he was waving this ticket. She couldn't say any word.

'' I agree.'' Yuki returned to the room and was grinning.

'' I think so too. We can manage without you but I don't think your friends will manage if you don't return to them.'' The third person who came was a red-haired woman.

'' But… I don't want to be a burden to them again…'' Mai was scared.

''You won't be. You know a lot more than you knew three years ago. You are stronger.'' Woman was telling the truth.

Mai looked at them and they were smiling. She smiled too and stood up in a second. With a happy look on the face she asked a question.

''When my bus will leave?''

''Today, at 8 o'clock.'' The man said with funny voice.

''I have only two hours!'' Mai panicked and started to pack. She didn't believe that she agreed to come back that quickly but she felt that she's doing the right thing.
