 It was the next morning, Bowie still asleep next to me. I turn to see if Seth is still there, but his spot is empty. Knowing he probably went to get a shower I go down stairs. Bowie waking up and deciding to follow me for food. 

Once down stairs, I do what any normal person would do during lock down. I sat down on the couch and took a nap, knowing Bowie was fed and Seth was up.

" Lex," Seth said, his hand on my shoulder slightly shaking me awake.

" Yeah?" I say barely able to keep my eyes open. 

" Josh called me this morning" Seth seem really stressed and upset about something " He wanted to know if we wanted to go to some asylum in Pennsylvania, told him I would talk to you first after what happened in the Conjuring." 

I thought about it for a few minutes, he wanted to go to Pennhurst State Hospital. The place our mother-in-law worked at as a young girl. She used to tell us that everyone who was an outcast came, it didn't matter who you were. I wonder if he had told mom. I knew I had to go, it was part of the family. 

" Let's do it" I say looking Seth in the eyes.

" Are you sure?" He said "It has only been a few weeks since the Conjuring." 

" Yes I want to do it, I want to it's a part of my families history."  I said with a smile on my face. " But I need to call Josh first."

 He nods and goes upstairs to pack. Bowie walks up to me and licks my hand. I smile and call Josh. " Josh, we need mom to go with us."

" Lexy you know how she feels about these places." Josh said with a sigh.

" Josh you know how much Pennhurst meant to her" I say

"Alright, I will call her up." Josh said " Bye sis" 

"Bye Josh"
