The Curse of A Lifetime

Chapter 35

SARAH

Cops have been at the school all day. Becky hasn't been home since the school sleepover and her Aunt and Uncle are worried, to say the least.

The school is acting frantic as if they did something wrong. I mean, they are being blamed for her disappearance on school grounds.

Her Aunt tried talking to me because she knows we are close. However, my mom got in the way and told her aunt that I had nothing to do with anything and this is all traumatic for me. It is traumatic. My best friend and only friend is missing and I have a feeling that I know who had something to do with it.

Her phone is missing and she hasn't gotten in contact with anyone except me. I did give the police a statement about her contacting me and they took my phone for evidence.

Soran has been gone too. I guess their relationship has been pretty private considering Becky's aunt and uncle didn't know and they still don't.

My dad was not happy about that, but he got me a new one for the time being. All of my data is gone and wasn't transferred.

I am worried they will find other things on there. For example, James's text, me and Carter's conversations, and Soran's stuff.

I really hope she pops up. Soran is getting into bigger trouble than he will ever know. I need him to come home.

"You're done for the day, Sarah," my manager says. "You can go, it's getting dark."

I nod, "thank you!"

It has been weird not working with Becky. We were supposed to be in this together.

I walk over to my little cubby in the back of the shop and take off my apron. Sliding the cubby out, folding my apron, and then putting it inside.

I smile and wave goodbye as a walk out the door the parking lot. My dad is waiting for me.

"Hi dad," I hop in the car and put on my seatbelt. The click sounds and he takes off, "how was work?"

"It was okay, I am just so worried about Becky." He nods in agreement, "yeah, that poor girl."

"How are you dealing with her missing?" he asks.

Both of my parents have been checking in with me about Becky. Of course, I haven't told them about the night at the school or my suspicions of Soran having to do something with her missing.

I did tell them about her walking off and not saying anything about it. They assume she was meeting up with someone or something like that.

"Okay, I just wish I could do more," I sigh. "Maybe you can."

I turn my head towards him confused. What does he mean?

"I know you can obviously see the dead, but what if there was something you can do more?" He asks, "can you maybe see if there is a connection between Becky and the dead?"

"You mean, find out if she is dead or not?" I can't believe he is asking me to do that. He has never asked me to do that or suggested to find someone.

"Not exactly," he take a breath, "I was thinking more of calling a seance- a vision." I have no words, I look out the window taking this all in.

"I know you have been experimenting with your gift and if you are going to do it, I want you to be safe." He tells me more, "you have a gift many people in this world wish they have and sometimes I know you don't want the gift."

"But this could be an amazing thing. Sure, there was the whole entity drama at the old house, but you could really be getting somewhere here." He finishes with, "I love you very much and I just want what is best for you and Soran."
