Chapter 2!
Today I was going to the church with my Mummy and Uncle A, they were doing something called a wedding rehearsal. I was told it was a run through before they got married next week, they had to make sure they knew what they had to say and where they had to stand in the church. We had meet Nonie, Blaze and Angelica at the church. It was nice seeing Angelica again because we've not seen her since last year, she was going to have a sleepover at the cottage for the next three days. But she had to bring her school work with her though, my Uncle A planned to help her with it and he said he would give me some homework so I could join in with them.
The church we were at was called St John the Baptist Church, it was pretty. There were big colourful windows and many wooden pews inside of the church, I also saw little red books on the pew's seats. I had to sit with Blaze and Angelica at the front row of the pews while the grown ups spoke to the vicar in his office. But after a while Blaze needed to go to the toilet, so he went to find his Mummy with Angelica. I had decided to stay behind in case my Mummy or Uncle A came to find us, they always told me to stay in one place if I ever go lost while we were in a unknown place.
I kind of got bored after while because they were taking ages in the bathroom, so I decided to stand on the pew and get a better look at the church. My Mummy said she was having winter roses and fairy primroses lining the aisle, but I'm not sure what kind of flowers they are though. I tilted my head slightly when I noticed an old lady at the back of the church, she was taking some books from box. I didn't know anyone else was in here with me, I thought I was all by myself while my friend were gone. I watched the old lady for a while as she continued to take the books from the box, but some of her books fell from the table. I quickly climbed down from the pew and hurried along the aisle to her, I was going to help her pick up the books like a good girl.
I stopped next to her and crouched in front of the books, I then heard the old lady say hello to me. I glanced up at her and said hello back as I picked some of the books up from the floor. I stood on my tip toes and placed the books on the table, she then gave me pat on my head with a smile on her face. She asked me what my name was and what I was doing in the church, I told her my Mummy was getting married. She spoke to me for a while about her hymn books and her Sunday job at the church, she played the pipe organ on Sunday's for the evening service.
I looked over my shoulder when I heard my Uncle A call my name, he must be looking for me I thought to myself as I looked back up at the old lady. But to my surprise she had gone, I looked around at my surroundings and I couldn't see her anywhere. I sighed to myself and walked to the end of the aisle, I wonder where she's gone? I saw my Uncle A standing at the other end of the aisle, he gave me a wave and I hurried down the aisle to meet him. I stopped in front of him and gave him a big smile, he then pinched my nose while he made a raspberry sound at me.
" Stop it, you're tickling my nose!" I laughed while I took hold of his hand. " It my nose, you can't have it!"
" Hey there short stuff, what have you been up to?" He asked as he lifted me up from the floor. " Hopefully you've been good girl, I don't fancy getting a telling off from the vicar of the church. He's quite stern and too old school for my taste, I'm glad he's just doing the wedding service..."
" I was talking to a lady, she was sorting hymn books out for Sunday service at the back of the church and I helped her..." I replied with smile and gave him a hug. "But then she went away, she's a fast old lady. She was nice though and she smelt like flowers, it's a nice smell..."
" Oh I see, I guess you can start helping me with my filing system then... " He chuckled.
" But they are bad books, not allowed to look at them!" I gasped while I pulled myself away from him. " I'm not detective, I'm only Eva..."
" I know, they're for my eyes only and not little nosy eyes..." He said as he sat me down on the front pew and then gave me toffee from his jacket pocket. " Now wait here for me while I get your Mum and the others, we don't want to leave anyone behind in the church..."
" Okay..." I nodded.
" Also save that toffee for after your dinner, I think we're going to the local chip shops for dinner tonight..." He said while he began to walk towards the vicar's office. " We won't be long, so keep your tush on the pew and be my lookout until I return!"
" Yes sir!" I giggled.
I laughed a little when I heard my voice echo around me, I gave my Uncle a wave before he entered the vicar's office and I put my toffee in my bag. I swung my legs as I looked up at the ceiling of the church, it was so high and there were big wooden beams with metal chandeliers hanging from them. I quickly looked over at the vicar's office when I heard footsteps, I saw Blaze with Angelica and Nonie leaving the office. They came over to me and sat with me, then Blaze told me all about the bathroom in the church. He told me there was a wooden cross on the bathroom's door and that the room smelt like flowers, he also mentioned there was a dolly toilet roll holder. I thought it was funny that a dolly would be holding a toilet roll, but Nonie told us to behave ourselves in the house of god because he was watching all of us in here.
It wasn't long until my Mummy and Uncle A joined us in the church, they said goodbye to the vicar and told him they would see him on their wedding day. The vicar then went back into his office, we then left the church and went for a walk in the cemetery to visit my Great Great Aunt Thora's grave. My Mummy got a little bit upset though, so my Uncle A had to give her a hug and he told her that Thora would be with her in spirit on her wedding day along with her Mother. After my Mummy felt better we left the churchyard and walked into town to get some chips for our dinner.
When we arrived back at the cottage it was beginning to get dark, we were not allowed to go and play outside until tomorrow. Me and Angelica went to my bedroom to play until it was time for our wash before bedtime. After we had a wash we were allowed to go back to my bedroom and look through some books until 8pm, but Angelica fell asleep while she was reading to me. I sighed to myself and put all of my books back on my bookshelf, it wasn't long until Uncle A came to say goodnight to us. He told me he had a lot of detective paperwork to do before he went to bed, I then asked him if I could help him and he told me no because it was grown up work.
I listened to my Uncle A talking to me while I took my slippers off, he said he would like us all to go for a country walk with him tomorrow when Rose visited my Mummy again. I told him okay as I helped him pull back my blankets on my bed, he then lifted Angelica up from my bed and placed her down on the part of my bed that was uncovered. He covered her up with some of the blankets and told me that my Mummy would along soon to say goodnight to me when she finished tidying the kitchen. I gave him a nod as I climbed onto my bed, I covered myself up with my fleece and asked him to tell me a story until my Mummy got here.
" Alright sweetheart, what kind of story would you like me to tell you?" He asked.
" Scary story, I like scary stories..." I replied with a smile. " I like the spider story, the one where the spider lives in my shoe and it thinks my toes are flies, then it bite my toes. Then Mummy comes to save my toes, she spray magic spray on the spider and it turns into a ball..."
" I'm not allowed to tell you stories like that anymore, your Mum may kill me or smack me and send me to bed with no supper..." He laughed and sat down on my bed next to me. " I'm allowed to tell you some nice stories though from my childhood, what do you say to that? I could tell you about how I met your Mum or about the time I fell in a cowpat while I was running around in a field with your Aunt Nonie, I've got loads of funny stories I could share with you..."
" But that boring..." I replied.
" Alright, I'll tell you a quick mischievous story instead from my childhood..." He said.
" What mischievous mean?" I asked.
" It means naughty, I wasn't all sugar and light as a kid..." He replied.
" Yes please, I like mischievous stories..." I smiled.
" That's good I guess, are you ready?" He asked.
" Yes..." I replied.
" Once upon a time there was a little boy who lived in an orphanage, he was an odd little boy with a sweet tooth..." He said while he put my cat ear headband on his head. " He didn't have any parents, so he was adopted by a kind old inventor guy. I guess you could say his childhood was boring because all he did was solve crimes and put bad guys behind bars, but one day there was a case he couldn't solve until the guilty party confessed to their crimes against candy justice..."
" What they do?" I asked.
" One night after the clock struck 12 and all the adults went to bed, something decided to move in the shadows of the night. Two little boys tiptoed from their bedroom with a bag of detective toys, they carefully made their way down to the odd boy's room and crept into his office..." He replied with smirk as he looked down at me. " But these two boys were very smart, they were not like the other boys and girls at the orphanage. They knew what they were doing, they came prepared with latex gloves and hairnets..."
" This not scary, don't like it..." I interrupted.
" But I was getting the good bit, I think you would like this story..." He said.
" Ghost story please..." I pouted.
" I'm sorry short stuff, but I don't want you to have bad dreams when you're sleeping..." He said while he brushed some of my fringe away from eyes. " Your Mum told me about what happened in the convenience store in Los Angeles, this is why from now on I've got to tell you nice stories..."
" But I like scary stories and ghosts, they fun sometimes..." I said.
" Yes they can be fun, but it's going to have to stop until you're at least 8 years old..." He smiled.
" Not fair!" I frowned.
" Don't be like that with me Eva pops, I can't change the rules..." He sighed.
" No!" I frowned.
" Oh sweetheart, you break my heart when you're mad..." He sighed and got up from my bed. " But I can't go against your Mum's wishes, she's going to be my wife after all and I need to obey her rules sometimes..."
I pulled my fleece over my head and told my Uncle to go away because he smelt like a boy. I heard him say that he loved me and he wished me sweet dreams, when I pulled my fleece away from my face he had already gone. I lay in my bed and stared up at the ceiling until my Mummy came to see me, she then told me off for being rude to my Uncle A. I told her I was sorry and I didn't mean to be rude to him, but she said I would have to make it up to him in the morning by making him pancakes with tomato sauce for breakfast. I gave her a nod and told her I was sorry again, she said it was okay while she tucked me in my bed.
" Goodnight sweetie, have sweet dreams until the sun wakes up..." She smiled.
" I will Mummy, love you..." I yawned.
" I love you too..." She smiled.
" More than cakes?" I asked.
" More than strawberry jam and cookies..." She replied.
" More than ice cream cookies and chocolate sauce!" I giggled.
" That sounds delicious, goodnight sweetie..." She smiled.
" Goodnight..." I said.
My Mummy kissed me goodnight, she then turned my ghost lantern night lights on and switched my bedroom's light off. She partly closed my bedroom's door behind her and I listened to her footsteps walking across the landing, I then heard her bedroom's door close. I looked back up at the ceiling and listened to Angelica snoring next to me, but then I heard a voice coming from the end of the bed. I quickly sat up in my bed and saw the girl with no eyeballs standing at the bottom of my bed, she must have followed me to England I thought to myself with a sigh. She had long blond wavy hair and she wore a kitty t shirt with blue jeans, she sometimes cried for her Mummy.
" The bad man with the red eyes took my eyes, he will not return them..." She quietly said as she raised her hand and pointed her finger at me with a red coloured tear rolling down her cheek. " He laughed while he made me go to sleep, his cold red eyes staring into my soul. I watched him take my eyes away as I cried on the inside for my Mom, he used the most horrible of weapons to silence me..."
" Not today, go away..." I whispered. " You go home, you not meant to be here..."
" You have his eyes, you must help me find my Mom..." She quietly said.
" Go way!" I frowned.
The girl with no eyeballs did not answer me back this time, she just continued pointing at me and staring at me with the hollow eyeless sockets. I don't like her at all, she wants her Mummy and I don't know where her Mummy's lives. She always tells me that the bad man took her eyes, she once told me that he had red eyes and a mean smile. I took my orange man dolly from underneath my pillow, I lay back down on my bed and tightly closed my eyes when the girl with no eyeballs appeared next to my bed where I was sleeping. After a while I rolled over to face Angelica and snuggled my face into my dolly, I wish this girl with no eyeballs would go away I thought to myself as I pulled my fleece over my head.
