The ghost Phantom Ship

Chapter 14

                            Saturday Morning 

                    I woke up and Charles was already awake, I laid there for a couple of minutes before I told Charles that we need to get ready for the day and that William wanted us to stop at the police department before going to the church, I told him that he needed to get ready first, I told him that I was going to make breakfast before I got ready for the funeral. I got downstairs and decide to to egg and sausage sandwich, I got everything done that I need to yesterday, we went to the flower bouquets yesterday and got flower for Carly Funeral they are being delivered this morning. I just got breakfast done when there was a knock at the door, I grab my service weapon and went to the door and ask who it was and it as Nolan and Jessica. I let them in, and I put my gun back in the safe, they followed me to the kitchen, and I told them to take a seat and asked them if they wanted a sandwich and they said yes. Charles came down and gave Nolan and Jessica a handshake and we went to the dining room and sad down. We ate in silence, and I was good with that, Charles told me he would clean up the mess and I said ok and thank him. I turn back to Jessica so I could be face to face with her as we spoke." Jessica, I thought that you couldn't be here for the funeral," I took a couple days off and I wanted to support you and Carly family," they will appreciate you showing up to support them and the department, do you guys have mourning bands," yes, we are going to get going to let you get ready and we have to get ready ourself," ok see you at the funeral."  Charles drove to the department which I was good with, I wasn't in the mood to drive, I thought about Carly and when we meet in high school, she was the first person to greet me and we became really good friends since we had a lot in common.

                 Flashback To High School                                                                                                                                                          I just left the office to head to my locker so I can put my stuff in it, I tried to get the locker open it and couldn't get it open, I ask a student going by and they told me to get it open by myself and walked away, I was just about to give up open the locker when a girl around my age help me with my locker and I told her thank you and she ask to see my schedule and I give it to her and we found out we had six classes together and lunch, I asked her what grade she was in and she said that she was in 11th grade, same as me. Carly show me to my homeroom and told me she would meet me by my locker after homeroom, and I said that was good. Homeroom was about ten minutes long and the teacher told me if I had any problems to let her know and I said I would. I got to my locker and Carly was waiting with two other friends of her, she saw me and came and grab my arm," Jason, and Peggy this is Heather she is new here," Heather this is my twin brother Jason and his girlfriend Peggy," nice to meet you guys," when did you move here," last week," how are you liking New York, Cortland," I haven't seen much of Courtland, we are still unpacking everything and looking for a job," we all work at the local diner and they are looking for new waitress," let me text my mom and let her know, what is the diner name," Courtland Diner," ok, do you guys drive," yes," I'll just follow you after school that sound good." We meet by my locker after school was over. Carly ask if she could ride with me and I said that was fine. We got to the diner, and she introduced me to her boss, and we talked for an hour, and he asked if I could start tomorrow and I said yes and told me he would be right back, he came back with my uniform and a name tag, he told me that I would be working from 4-9 pm from Mon-Fri and Saturday 12-8 and Sunday I would have off until he got a couples of new waitress. Carly and I had dinner there since it was getting late." Heather what do you want to do when you get out of school," I want to become a cop and a writer, but I would be ok with one or the other, what do you wanted to do," I want to become a cop like my grandfather, why do you want to be a cop," I wanted to become a cop to help people out and let them know cops do care," I always wanted to help people out, what do your parents think," my father is happy and encourage me to do that and giving me all kinds of tips, and my mother not happy about it she want me to be at stay home wife and mother," yikes," I know."
