A few months after the ten-year anniversary of the Lisbon girl
sightings everyone from our school had gotten a ten-year reunion
invitation. At the reunion we all found each other right away. The person
that we least expected to come and find us right away was Trip Fontaine.
He told us that he was sick of seeing Lux everywhere he went. When he
turned around he saw her when he went and sat down later on her saw her
sitting across the table. He almost flipped out by then. We thought that
he was going to go straight ahead and commit suicide at that moment.
Later that night Trip had taken our minds away from the reunion. We
really did think that he had a plan to end his life right then and there.
We were surprised when he was still living after the reunion had ended. We
thought then that maybe we were wrong. We should have never thought such
crazy things. Well they seemed crazy when we saw him alive. That night on
the news we saw something that we never thought we'd see. There was a
story about a man who had driven himself off a bridge and had died that
night. The car was almost identical to Trip's. The thing is no one knew
who the man is. That is until the next morning.
The next morning the story was all over TV and the newspapers. It
was even on the radio. The first newspaper that we read told us who the
man was. The newspaper read:
A young man named Trip Fontaine drove
his car off a bridge last night.
The man might have been stressed or
he could have been angry for some reason.
No one knows, but when we find someone that does
the town will be further informed
as to why this young man had ended his life.
The rest of the article went on to talk about Trip and Lux. The scary
thing was that in the picture on the front cover there was a light that
looked like it was laughing. It seemed to be that Lux had gotten what she
wanted from Trip Fontaine.
On the day of the funeral almost the whole town was there. It was
pretty much a sad site to see Trip dead. No one understood how he could
have gone nuts over something haunting him. There was on thing that was
very awkward about the funeral. Something just didn't seem right. Our
surroundings were all bright. We finally figured out what it was when we
saw four glowing lights behind a tree all bent over laughing. It was the
Lisbon girls. Laughing at Trip. Laughing at even us.
