A Night to Remember
Chapter 4
"The Healer"
The one who whispers to the dead,
The one who listens to the dead
and the one who heals the dead.
Melinda had brought Tara over to her store to meet Delia and tell her the amazing story Tara had told Melinda. Tara walked into Same as it never was and looked at all of the beautiful inventory. Tara was amazed of how Melinda kept the place so serene.
"I love it here" said Tara. Melinda smiled and gave Delia a little nudge on the shoulder. Tara continued to walk gracefully around the store, smelling the different varieties of candles. She came across her favorite scent, lavender. Ever since Tara was little, she dreamed of having her own lavender garden. She sniffed the rest of the candles and tuck her purse in between her arm.
"Very beautiful you guys" said Tara. Delia smiled and blushed. Tara noticed the sudden change in Delia's face.
"Delia redecorated it" Melinda told Tara. Tara nodded her head with a impressed look on her face. Delia leaned on the store counter and gave Tara curious eyes.
"So tell me, what's your story?" she asked. Melinda gave Tara a stool to sit on and she got comfortable.
"Well, ever since I was a little girl, my mother had always told me I was special. When I was little, I remember in grade three I had this boy in my class named Ethan. Whenever we would play, his parents would talk to mine and get along really well. Time passed and Ethan and I became best of friends. We did everything together, from hanging out after school to baking cakes with each other. You could say that we had the perfect friendship to have for a life time" said Tara clearing her throat. Delia smiled that stretched across her face revealing her pearly whites.
Tara cleared her throat and continued. "It wasn't long after that he came with my parents and I to our cottage in Montana for the weekend in the summer of grade three. We had spent so much time together that we had to take him to come see the beautiful view from our dock. My mother was in the kitchen making dinner for Ethan and I, while we watched the glorious sunset of Montana. I can remember the beautiful sun right now. The vibrant rays of ruby and orange sinking into the sapphire abyss. Ethan and I decided to go sit at the edge of the docks to watch it. Well, that's when it happened....." Tara paused and tried to release the words but she couldn't.
Delia glanced at Melinda with worry and focused her eyes on Tara once again. Tara folded her hands and rested them against her lap.
"We were so intrigued by the sunset that Ethan lots his balance and fell into the water. Now, I never he couldn't swim, so I started to laugh because to me it was funny. Ethan tried to regain his stance so he could breath, but it was just to hard. After a moment of silence, I realized that he was in danger. I screamed for my mother for help, but she was too far away to help. I tried to grab his hand when he reached for mine, but I couldn't. Soon enough, my mom ran over and grabbed Ethan out of the lake and disturbed the mirrored image of the setting sun that reflected on the waters surface" Tara felt a chill on her skin just describing that night.
"My mother called the police and they told her to lay Ethan on the ground and do CPR. She tried, but there was no such luck. Ethan was as blue as the waters he fell into. I ran over and with all this rushing to my head, I for some reason touched his hand. My mother told me to stay behind so that I wouldn't see anything. I saw everything there was to see" said Tara. Delia averted her eyes off Tara and onto Melinda who was listening to the story.
"This is the amazing story?" Delia asked sarcastically. Melinda rolled her eyes.
"Just listen, you will see" Melinda answered. Tara continued on with the story. All of a sudden, Tara's mournful face had changed to a beautiful smile and her eyes lightened up with this cute shine.
"Once I touched Ethan's hand, he started to breath again. The skin color of his that was starting to turn grey had became normal once again. I smiled with joy and my mother knew something and thought she should tell me then. I touched Ethan and he was brought back to life. Then when Ethan was brought to the hospital, they had told my mother that he hadn't died but was about to. If I hadn't touched him at the moment, he would of been long gone. His spirit was just leaving his body and I brought it back to him" Tara said with a big smile.
Delia was in shock being the skeptic she already is. Melinda smiled in awe.
"Ethan has lived a happy life and never have had any problems" Tara said.
"So you have the gift to heal the dead?" asked Delia. Tara tucked her brown hair behind her ears.
"Only before their spirit leaves our realm. If ones spirit has entered the light, then it is too late" explained Tara. A customer walked into the store with her husband and Melinda welcomed them. Tara and Delia both smiled and continued with their day.
