A new ghosts? (CBS Ghosts)

~XI~

The kids were all walking around outside.
It was mid day and the other students were eating lunch , while the group had just grabbed some food to go.

"This part of the woods are so scary...." Patrick complained. "Yeah , I swear I saw a dead snaked tied up around a tree." Said Carla.

"Where do I put this wrapper?" Patrick asked. "Here , I brought a bag for the trash." Hunter said.

He took of his backpack and knelt on the ground. He took out a bag and gave it to Patrick.

"Awe thanks Dad!" Patrick said mockingly. Hunter rolled his eyes and said "Whatever" before continuing on.

Amalia was smacking on a granola bar , walking ahead of the group a tiny bit. She all of a sudden stopped.

"You guys!" She yelled in a panicked voice. The others rushed over , stopping in their tracks when they saw what she did.

Mrs. Valloso's body.

"What the fuck?!" Patrick yelled.

"Ok....Ok....let's uhm just uh...." Hunter stuttered. He couldn't get anything out of his mouth.

Before he could say anything else , the other 3 bolted out of the woods.

"Or- we could just run away...." Hunter muttered. He chased after the others , eventually catching up to them.

"Oh my heck!" Pete exclaimed. "Two murders , barely even into one week? Sam should re-start her podcast." Alberta said. "I am pretty sure the law enforcement even allow that?" Pete reminded her. "So....?" She asked.

Amalia couldn't believe this was happening again. Their boyfriend and teacher both literally got murdered just days apart.

They just couldn't wait to leave. They just wanted to go home and cry. But alas , there was no way home just yet.

They knew New York was crazy , but not this crazy.

Carla came outside and sat beside them. She wrapped her arm around them , and Amalia laid their head on her shoulder.

"This trip was supposed to be funnnnn...." They complain. "Yup." She agreed.

They sat in silence for a second , just looking at the view. "There is definitely something going on. Like , this is too suspicious." Carla said , breaking silence.

Amalia heard a notification from their phone. They opened it to see a text from their mom.

1:32 PM

Mom : Amalia?

Amalia sighed , and texted back. They knew that their mom was totally freaking out (reasonably so).

Amalia : Hey Mama ❤️

Mom : Babe , are you ok? 😞 You will be coming home tomorrow.

Amalia : 1st , yes I am. I am with my friend Carla rn. 2nd , I will? Will the others?

Mom : Yes. The school has been contacted by law enforcement that they have to let you home.

Amalia : Oh ok....I will ttyl :>

Mom : Ok.

Amalia put their phone in their pocket. "Who was that?" Carla asked them. They grabbed her hand. "It was just my mom." Amalia said. "How's she doing?" Carla asked. "I don't really know. Probably not that well , obviously." Amalia said. Carla shrugged and looked away from them , and to the yard.
