Chapter 3 : Sweet home Crystal Bay

Damn does it feel good being back in Crystal Bay. I mean it's still quiet as hell, but at least its familiar. Theres Jim's liquor store where anyone can get some cigs and a good beer. Shit he didnt even care if you were underage just as long as you were 14 and older and you didnt snitch. Then theres Ramon's Taqueria where you can get the best Mexican food ever. Also the owner; Ramon, is a real cool dude who is always willing enough to talk to you if you need to let some steam out. He is also kinda cute I guess. And there is many more little shops and vendors everywhere in this town. I think at this point I'm just gonna go to my usual hangouts and see what's up.

I can't put my finger on it, but something feels off. Like theres some new faces around the block. It's kind of weird though. Not everyone is getting acknowledged or even recognized. I decide to see if maybe I can talk to one of these new faces. "Hey man what's up you seem a bit lost. You new here?" This guy was tall, lengthy, and he was wearing an old suit. He seemed clean and well organized. He also had a strong scent of aftershave and cigars. "Why hello there young man. I'm neither lost or a newcomer if you can believe that. No I've been a wanderer here for about a good 76 years now and I've seen you around more than you have seen me." If I was not in the situation I had been in now than I would've thought this godfather extra was just trying to pull my leg but I guess I could hear him out. "Look man what you just told me right now seems a bit wild, but given the certain circumstances I'm not in any position to call a bluff. What do you mean more than 76 years, and what do you mean you've seen me before?" He chuckled a bit looking at me with the look a father gives his son when he has to give him the birds and the bees talk. "Let me introduce myself. My name is Donny and I died in 1946. I was; and still am, not able to pass on so I'm stuck here on the earthly realm until I'm able to be at rest. I know you because I would see you around with your buddy's and see you sometimes by yourself. Now if you ever had those moments where you felt a little breeze by this spot then it was me just letting you know I was around." Well that just proved his honesty in a snap. It is a little too personal for comfort but hes not lying. You know for someone as old as him I bet he has a lot of experience with being dead an all. I guess I found my mentor
