The One

Seen her

George's pov
Since her birthday, I've been seeing someone follow me. Someone who looks like Hope. What if it is Hope. But if it was her, she would have shown herself already. I decided to asks Mia to meet up with me since they are at London today. "Hey, Mia. It's me. George. I just wanted to ask of we could meet up? Only if you're available." I say "Okay. You'll go here after lunch? Okay. I'll prepare some snacks. See you." I say as I drop the call.

"Hey, George. Haven't seen you for a year ." Mia says as she hugs me. " Sorry. I've been busy and apologies for not being there for Hope's birthday dinner." I say. "It's alright. How are you this past year? Find anyone?" she asks and I a part of me feel sad. "No. I can never find anyone like your sister. Can never replace her. No one could ever be her." I say fiddling with my necklace. She sees me fiddling with it. "You still have that." she says smiling. "Yeah. Makes me feel like she's with me." I say

"Uhm. I asked you to meet me because I need to ask something." I say as we stop by the garden. "Ask away." she says as she purses her lips and smiles. "Have you been Hope?" I asks and her smile vanishes. She then looks at me confused and hurt. "Wh-what do you mean?" she asks. "I'm sorry for bringing her up but these past few weeks since her birthday, I think I've been seeing her. I thought it was just me at first but it kept happening multiple times." I say rambling "what does she look like? Does she have shorter hair? Wearing a black hat?" I then look shocked. "So you also have been seeing her. Could it be Hope?" i say as I feel hope in me. "Yeah. I have. I first saw her the night of her birthday. Then I see her again. I thought I am going crazy. But with what you said, I am not." she says.

"So it is her?" i say as we both smile then she stops. "But if it is her, she should have shown herself already? Right?" Mia asks and I think. "We can't tell anyone yet. We can't bring their hopes up." I say. "Okay. Tell me if you see her again." she says. I then guide her to her car as she is about to leave.

I went back in for dinner. "Hey, George. I thought you'd be out today." mum says and I hug her. "Not anymore." I say as I smile. "Is there something wrong?" she asks. I shrug. "No. Why?" I ask "Nothing. Just haven't seen you smile in a long time.i then smile again "How I've missed your smile." she says smiling back.

I head home knowing i have hope that she's back. I see mom and she's at the coach with dad and I see the watching videos pf is growing up. They are both crying. When they see me, they turn it off and wipe tears away. "You're back! How's George? I heard he might be dating." mom asks as she looks at me. Her eyes puffy. I want to tell her that she might be back. But I can't bring their hopes up in case it isn't her. "Yeah. He's good. He's not dating though." i say. "Aw. Why?" she asks. "He doesn't want to replace Hope. He said no one would be like her." i say and mom looked at me. "Anyway. Have to go upstairs." I say.

A few days past and she's been visiting. I'm taking note of when she visits so that we can maybe catch her. Today was the last day to check if she's going to visit me. And she did. I call Mia. It went to voicemail "Hey. It's George. She visited me. I have a pattern. Meet me here again same time. Head to my room after you get here." I say

She arrives "She visits every other 2 days. When I'm at my room at 6:00pm when I'm at my room. She stand outside by the bench. A blind spot in the cameras." I say smiling at her. "Okay. I'll head here on Saturday and wait outside." she says
