My phone next to rang startling me. It was just my alarm telling me to get up and start getting ready. I walked out in to the main room on the hotel seeing Manfred looking out over the city of Dallas.

"How long until the next client?" I asked looking at the time.

"She should be here any minute Addy" he answered brushing his teeth. I went into the bathroom and brushed my red hair getting all the tangles out from last night and brushed my teeth. I went back out to my suitcase and grabbed my clothes for today deciding to wear jean shorts and a tank top that said Sarcasm Loading please wait. As I joined Manny back out in the main area the someone knocked at the door

"I got it" Manny said. He opened the door to Rachael a long-time client of ours. "My Rachael you look younger every time I see you."

"Oh, stop it Manfred" she gushed still acting like she was married. He took her jacket and bringing her in the room. I started setting up the candles knowing quite well what Rachael came here for.

"I should have told you when we made the appointment my fee has gone up" he explained.

"You should know by now you and your sister are worth every penny" Manfred sat down across from Racheal holding her wedding ring from Harold calling out to him.

"Harold Rachel is here she would like to speak to you" the room chilled just a bit and Manfred said to Racheal was Harold was saying to him.

"He thinks the new haircut is hot" Manfred said with a chuckle.

"32 years we were married and now you like it short." She smiled

"He said he was stupid." Manfred smiled "he hated change"

"Oh Harold not a day goes by I don't miss you something awful"

"He doesn't want you to grieve him forever he wants you to be happy"

"well there's something I need to tell you." She sighed "I'm seeing someone" the room paused the candles flickered.

"Manny maybe we should stop" I warned the room not feeling right.

"Go on, he's listening"

"We are taking it slow but I'm happy"

"He wants to know who it is?"

"Its Kevin." The candles went out and the room became ice cold.

"I told you" I growled,

"Perhaps we should take a break or stop all together." Manfred said. I glared at him. Just then the mirror broke behind where I was standing making me jump and a foggy figure started to take form next to me. Hospital gown and hole in his chest. I back up and Manny said "you stay where you are you are not to cross" the Angry ghost looked from Manfred to me.

"No!" I yelled but Harold didn't listen he entered my body through my mouth and ears making me cough before I knew my eyes glazed white and Harold took over my body

"My Partner my Friend!" he made me take the ring from Manfred and throw it towards Racheal

"Harold?" she questioned looking surprised

"How could you!" I yelled. I tossed the table and grabbed her by the hair "Does he like your hair short like this!"

"Get out of my sister Harold" Manny tried to grab me, but Harold threw him over the bed

"No ,no, no" She cried with all my energy I suppressed the spirit in my body.

"Get out of me" Racheal went to get up and Harold took over again, I grabbed a shard of the broken mirror bringing it closer to her.
