Memories

Secret garden

[Crystal's POV]

I quickly open my cheesy romance book I was reading for school, and start reading till my heart beat was at his normal rhythm. I take a deep breath and then get my iPod out of my bag and listen to my usual morning jam, what the fuck is happening all of the sudden?! My problems are just popping out of nowhere. Jeez... Plus they're trying to kill me.

~"What is your problem Aiden?! She's not dangerous she's my sister!"~

~"You don't remember? We... Kissed?"~

~"... A voice?" ~

~"It's me... Adelyne"~

~"Crystal!!!"~

~"No more lies and hidden truth okay?"~

~"Katia?"~

~"There's no need to"~

Voices are whispering in my mind driving me crazy. Fuck... Fuck,Fuck,Fuck,FUCK!

~"The mirror will tell you!"~

Oh yeah..., the pocket mirror.... I look at my hand that was still holding the mirror.

"The mirror will tell you?"

I examine the cover and then turn it the other side.

"Oh... That's what he meant"

On the round surface was written a phone number. And little red letters more in the left corner of the back.

" C - H - R - I - S ....?"

His name is Chris?

I take a deep breath and I try to remember the traits and details of his face, and then it strikes me. His eyes clear as water electrified my body just by remembering it, he has to have a link to Ciliah it's impossible he doesn't know this place, it's in his eyes!

As I keep thinking about weird clues and connections, fragments of my memory kept coming to the surface making me think of everything at once. The bus stopped and the students one by one were getting out of it, still in my head, I follow the movement and get down the bus as well.

As I get down the bus, a screaming sound interrupt my further steps.

The same little girl from the library was laying on the ground. Maybe 10 feet away from me, I could see a big stain of blood on her black dress who dipped half of her long gray hair in red. She seemed in pain, and was screaming with agony for God to save her.

Unparalized, I take a step forward the child but stopped when she heard my footstep. She looks at me with anger. Her eyes were drained in rage and confusion and her death glare made me shiver.

Suddenly I hear behind me:

"Crystal what are you doing? Move aside we need to get off the bus!"

I didn't even realized I was blocking the passage, I obey to the voice and move aside. My eyes still locked on the bloody girl didn't effect me from realizing that.... She's not real! Like someone retarded, I just stand in middle of the place, not moving, jaw on the floor, as students just walk INSIDE OF HER!

Apparently no one except me can see her and at last but not least she's a FUCKING GHOST!! People just walk in and out of her like it's not a big deal, and I'm just there really confused and horrified by what I'm seeing right now. Moving a little bit form the left to the right I can see she's following me with her eyes and that she has no intention of stopping there.

I close my eyes for a brief second just to calm myself and act like a human being once in my life. Opening them again, the little girl wasn't there anymore. Wh-What's going on?! Amazingly tired from all those unexpected events just popping out of nowhere, I make a detour to not come near her now invisible body and I just follow the others who are heading to the school yard, not giving a shit anymore.
