I was called the ‘queen of the dead’ for a reason. I like the dead, that’s why I got my job at the morgue, the silence was comfortable and I get to look at a dead body and wonder, ‘what was their story?’ ‘why did they die?’
I once had a patient that was at a hit and run, and I thought to myself “what if she ran out on an argument and went to the streets and accidentally got hit by a car?!”
There are a lot of possibilities as to why a person is dead, and I like to sit back and wonder. I wasn’t nosy or anything, just out of curiosity.
“Hey Jamie? You got a new one” a police officer enters the morgue with a dead body. I sigh and take the clipboard signing my name and then the officer left.
“Well hello there” I take the hospital bars and pull at an empty spot “You’re the only one for the day”
I zip open the body bag and saw that this was a boy, who was wearing a striped shirt that had a bloodstain and red skinny jeans. I look at his face and smile, he looked nice.
I shake my head and grab some gloves putting it on. I sigh and smile, brushing away the strands of hair that covered his shut eyes.
I gasped when I felt something touch my hand from behind, I squeeze my eyes closed.
“You have to help me” it said in a smooth accent. I look behind me and saw the boy in the body bag, I look back at the hospital bed and saw that he was still there, then… how?!
“Please don’t freak out!” he said “I won’t hurt you I-” he looks over my shoulder and his eyes widen, he looks at his body then at the one laying on the hospital bed. Just then, a tear escapes his eyes as he sits on a corner letting go of my wrists.
I sit closer to him and I didn’t know what to do so I take him in my arms. He was a ghost, a friendly one at that.
“Am I dead?” he whispered brokenly then sobbed.
“I’m afraid so yeah” I whisper.
“Why am I here?” he asked
“For a purpose, I suppose”
“would you help me find that purpose?”
I sigh and think it over… would I help a broken ghost and try to not get attached?
“Sure”
