The Ghost and the Girl

Alive

Cory

Afterschool, I was walking home with my best friend, Jessie. She was the only person I could tell about my encounters with Moan. And so far, she doesn't think I'm crazy.

"So he's a ghost and you think you love him...Can you love ghosts?" She asks

"I hope so."

"What do you mean you hope so? What happens if you do? Is it a ghost rule not to fall in love with a human?"

"Its never been donw before, so there could be dire consequences." She scoots closer to me as we walk. We were close to her house.

"Like what? C'mon, before I go!" She anxiously says. We were at her house by then and I waves her goodbye. "Call me tonight when you smash him okay?" She yells as she backs into her house. I laugh at her comment before heading to my own house.

I get to my house and I see an extra car in the driveway. I am confused until I get into the house and see my brother talking to a lady in a wheelchair and another lady standing up assisting the lady in the wheelchair. I just had to say something.

"Um Parker? Who are these people?" Everyone then looks at me, alarmed. Parker walks up to me and puts his hands firmly on my shoulders and looks back at the women. They give him reassuring looks. He sighs then brings me over to the women.

"Cory, this is mom." He states. I instantly am shocked and wrap my arms around my mom, crying of joy.

"My baby..." She says.

"Mommy!!" I am so happy to see her at the moment, but then I realize why wasn't she here before if she was alive the whole time. "What happened to you? Why are you just now coming out? Why--" So many questions were rushing to my head at once, but mom insisted ate dinner, do my homework, and rest on all of this newfound information.

A/N: Hope you enjoyed? Momma's back yay!! TBC
