Murder Mystery (ENG)

6

I woke up quietly. I looked beside me and saw Faya sitting. I tried to think of what was said and what happened.

Faya is in coma, I am the only one who sees her, as a ghost.... Is this right?

'Good morning,' she said.

'Good morning...' I said wearily.

'I've been thinking and writing down some things I already know,' she said.

'And...?

'I was reminded of some videos of yours. Sometimes you tell spirits that they are trapped, that they can't leave because they can't let go or process some things. And then they keep wandering around. I guess with the whole situation that there is more going on. I can't leave until it's resolved.'

'Makes sense. I guess.'

'Niels wanted to help me, I was in the car, he at the wheel. And on the way, he hit you. Now the question is why did he help me? What happened to me?'

'And you think there is something more behind it? And when that is solved that you will disappear?'

'I think so... and because you got involved you see me.'

'Is it definitely Niels that hit me?'

'I don't know, I was trying to find an explanation.'

'I'm going to try to help wherever I can. I'm not able to get out at the moment though.'

'Can't Sam help?'

'I don't know. He doesn't see you and doesn't believe me right now. Which is understandable because I did get a hard hit.'

'Speak of the devil,' she said and Sam came in.

'Heyyy, are you alright?' Asked Sam.

'Going well... I need to talk to you about something.'

'Speak up.' Said Sam

'It sounds dumb but I'm really not crazy. But I see Faya. She told me she's in a coma here. She also thinks Niels is the one who hit me. She was also in that car.'

'Colby, I'm saying this for your own good. You've been hit hard, you're seeing things that aren't there...'

'Tell me... how do I prove it? I mean it, I'm not crazy, she's here and she needs my help.'

'Close your eyes, and make him do or write something and I'll tell you,' Faya said.

'Write something. I'm gonna close my eyes, will you believe me if I can say the words?'

'Is good, if I can help you like that. If it's not will you let it go?'

'Promise Sam,' I said and closed my eyes.

POV Faya

Sam was writing an entire text. After he finished I read out everything.

'I'm just going to write something, not that it's very important. The first thing that comes to mind. Just the things I think about. After what happened yesterday... I was really scared of losing my best friend. There have been so many things where I was scared but this was 10 times worse...'

Colby repeated everything, still with his eyes closed.

'How?' Sam was in shock at what was happening.

'Do you believe me? She is here. I can see and hear her. I think there's more to it and she needs my help to leave,' Colby said with a sigh.

'I have to get used to it. Don't know what to think. We've never experienced anything like this before. You seeing ghosts? Not a shadow but really someone?' Said Sam
