Gregory's POV:

" You never told us you had a nickname from your past life?!?!" They all said except Charlie and Sarah. Charlie and Sarah knew because I told them about my nickname of past life. " So, how about I make dinner now? I bet all of you are hungry, " I asked and they nodded. Evan looked at me, " How do you managed?" He asked to me. " I have my ways, Alexander, " I smirked at him. Then I went to the kitchen and I went through the recipe book. As I was reading through, I felt a top on my shoulder. I looked up, it was Evan.

" What do you want? " I asked in a soft voice, " Maybe, I can help you out because you do a lot of the work in the house, " Evan smiled. He took the book out of my hands, " Your mother was a good cook, " Evan said, and I nodded. " Gregory is really good you know, " we heard Charlie said. I just shrugged, and I took the book back. I choose one of those soups what my mother used to make. 

" Mexican lentil soup, " I said aloud, and Evan looked over my shoulder. " You want to make this soup, your mother really made good food. But yours is better, " Evan said, and I smiled. I playfully rolled my eyes, I had all the ingredients for it. " Did you ever cook, Evan? " I asked to him, as he took out the pot  for the soup. " Well, you seen me cook before. Don't you remember that one time when you got sick? " Evan asked to me, and I do remember that day.

I was very sick at the time, I was 16 years old at the time. I was overworking again at the time, I hid my sickness during when I was doing a mission with Evan and his team. But he managed to notices because he can read minds. He read mine, and he had to tell his team to finished the job. Then he took me home, and took care of me. I remember that day before everything happened. 

" I do remember, weren't for you noticing I will sick as fuck at the time. Okay, let's cook the food."

After we cooked the food, I called the souls. Then I made the bowls for me and Sarah as usual. I went to the backyard, and I saw her sitting at the log. I sat beside her and I gave her the bowl. She started to eat as soon as I gave it to her. I started to eat mine as well and we looked at the sky. " I wonder..." Sarah started, " what is heaven like? " I knew the answer of that, but pure souls are the guardians of the gate of heaven and hell.

I seen heaven through visions, " I never seen heaven, but I saw it through visions. It is a beautiful place where good and the kindest souls go. You have to be good, kind, caring and all the things of the light. Heaven is a place of beauty, I am sure you will see your family again, Sarah. I promise you that, plus you are the nicest person I know. I am sure you will go to heaven, Sarah, " I told to her, Sarah is like a child to me. But I know one day she will move on and go to the place she belongs.

Pure souls can't go to heaven or hell, they just reincarnate as much as they can. They never go to died, they just reincarnate. Plus, we protected the earth and we can't leave unless we reincarnate as and human. But I can't leave because so matter how many times I reincarnate, I stay behind. This is my third life, and I finished my food. I saw Sarah was almost done, " Hey love, and who are you? " I jumped a bit to the voice of Evan. " I am Sarah, I am the youngest soul here, " Sarah mumbled, and Evan didn't hear her. 

" Her name is Sarah, she is the youngest soul here, that's what she said, " I helped her out, and Evan nodded. " You both done with your bowls? " Evan asked, and we nodded. I took the bowl from Sarah. " Sarah, you should play with the others. Like Susie perhaps, " I suggested her, and she smiled. She followed us inside the house, and she went to play with Susie. Susie was like a older sister to everyone. 

I went to wash the dishes, after I was done with that. I went to my room to draw something, maybe another nightmare drawing. I been doing these for years, to help me find my family. I looked at all of my drawings on my walls. They were pin on them with red yarn, leading clues to clues. But I have no more leads now, I been trying to find more leads for this. I been trying, but I have no more leads.

I thinking Evan can help, but I still don't trust me or forgive him. I still have a bit hated for him, I am not forgiving him yet. After he did to me, he left me for dead and I sighed. But life is never fair, it has it's ways to change the course of life. I looked at my drawing and I went to my desk to drawing in my sketch book. I started to draw something about some crystal I saw once. I started to draw the object right away. This might takes some hours for this, and I knew I will be caught for not sleeping enough hours.

After 6 hours, I looked at the time. I been drawing for a long time, but I did took breaks. I sighed, I looked at the time. I saw it was almost midnight and Evan might find me not sleeping. Ain't my fault I am insomniac because I got that from dad. If I wasn't insomnia, maybe I could sleep at least. I am so tired, but at the same time I am not.

I don't know what to do about it, and then my door opened. " I thought you were sleeping already, " Evan said, and I turned my head. " I can't because I am insomniac. You know that, " I told to him, and Evan didn't want to take a no for answer. He took my sketch book from my hands, and I got up. " Hey, give that back, " I said, angerly. " Nope, not until you get some sleep, " Evan smiled.

I sighed, and I tried to reach for my book, but Evan is too tall. I kept trying, but I failed in the process of this. " Fine, " I groaned, and Evan smiled. I went to get ready for bed and I am very busy person if you ask me.

After I went to the bathroom, and I went back to my room. Then I lay down on my bed, I looked at Evan. " Are you going to sleep? " I asked to Evan, " Nope until you go to sleep, " Evan told to me. I guess I will sleep, and I closed my eye, then I fell asleep.
