Well, life was I know it is over. No, not because of
what Dopey did. What I did. After that wonderful moment ruined, I had a ghost
visit me. Nothing new, only, I knew this ghost, very well. It was my cousin, April Simion.
That caused me to back up a bit.
"Suze? Wow, what are you doing here?" Oh no, she
doesn't know she is dead, I don't think.
"Um, Do you know where you are?" See Jesse, I'm being sensitive.
Its not like I'm hitting her or anything. Yet.
"Yes, oh geez Suze, I'm dead aren't I." She told me that,
slowly sinking into my window seat. She looked so sad. I had to say something, after all
she is also family, I can't just be rude to her or anything.
"Yes, you are, but you aren't' gone yet. You still
have a reason to be here." I told her gently. I looked her over. She still looked like me.
Same hair, eyes and body shape. A lot of people used to tell us when we went out together
we looked like sisters. I guess all of those features are always from my fathers side.
"Really? I don't know what." I smiled and
walked towards the window seat to sit down next to her. Before I could tell her why she
could see me and why I was here, a new ghost joined us.
"Hello Susannah, I........ oh. Hello. I'm Jesse." He
walked over to April pulling out his hand. April shook it, and Jesse pushed away, and
walked towards my bed and sat on it.
"Ok, well, I'm here to help you realize that. Why you are
still on this earth." I told her, stealing looks at Jesse. He was looking around like he had
nothing to do. he never stays when I talk to other ghosts, unless I'm in danger. Well,
April is in no way dangerous. Really! Before I could go on, April got up and walked
towards the bed too, deciding to lay down. What the hell............
"Suze? Honey, come downstairs, I have to talk to
you." I heard my mom yell up the stairs. I didn't want to leave those two alone for some
reason. Or maybe I didn't want to leave Jesse alone with April. I went anyway, walking
slowly out of the room, with Jesse's eyes following me. I was on the last step when my
mother meet me.
"Honey, I just got a phone call from your
grandmother. Your cousin, April died last night. She was with her boyfriend, he had
been drinking all night, and he ran into another car throwing them from it." My mom told
me with tears running down her face. All I was thinking about was April and Jesse. This is
getting sad. I squeaked out a oh no. My mom pulled me in for a hug, and let go fast and
went to tell Andy what happened. I turned back and ran up to my bedroom. I even took
two steps at a time. I walked into my bedroom, acting like I just strolled up there. Didn't
want to look too anxious to come back up. When I "walked" in, I only saw April who, by
the way, was still laying on the bed.
"Where's Jesse?" I asked right away, April looked up with big eyes.
"Oh boy Suze, I think I know why I'm here." Ok, I
want to hear this. I felt my stomach start to cramp up. I had a reason in my head, but I
didn't want to think it.
"Ok, why then, I'll help you, I have to help you." I told her,
trying to be as sensitive as possible. Ok, I was really trying. Ok, I'm lying, I wanted to
hurt her anyway possible. Just because I knew what she was going to say. Great, I'm such
a great cousin.
" Do you know that Jesse looks like my boyfriend?"
She said in a breathy voice I had heard her use once before. You know what, maybe I
would just have to do something about that.
"Yeah?" I said to her, my voice getting high.
She didn't notice me, starting too grip my hand on my shirt, pulling it slightly. She didn't
recognize my amazing voice change either.
"I think, I'm supposed to end up with Jesse." She
told me with a sigh. Oh my god. This was going to make me puke.
"I lost my boyfriend at that crash. I felt he
was my soulmate, now I'm dead. I meet a ghost, that looks just like him. I'm destined to
be with him." Right. God, could she be more wrong. Why do I even help her. I know
that she wrong about it all. Jesse loves me. I heard him say it. I don't care if she is family,
he is mine. Could I sound more possessive? Might as well make her believe that I really
mean it, just so I don't hurt her feelings.
"I'll try and see if he will talk to you." I told
her in a weak voice. She didn't notice that either, she just flew up in the bed and gave me
a huge smile. She jumped up and ran towards me, planted a kiss on my cheek and left.
Just disappeared. I don't even think she knows where she is going. I walked towards my
bed, fell into it and pulled a pillow over my head. I knew what she was doing, she was
looking for Jesse.
"Why did she have to find me here?" I said
out loud into the pillow. Little did I know, who was standing there, and who had heard
everything.
"Well, Well, Suze, you are finally giving up Jesse,
aren't we?"
