Her, Dead Love

Chapter Eighteen

OLIVE

BANG!!!!

I heard a loud noise that had me almost fall off the bed, I streched my arm to reach out for Jason but he wasn't there, then I rubbed my eyes and looked at the time in my phone lying near the side lamp, three in the morning it said. What could be the noise at this hour, I wondered and dragged myself out of the bed reaching for my slippers. I was so tired from the hectic day I had yesterday but I somehow managed to walk out of the room and down the stairs.

"Jason...Father D'Mello.." I called out and heard no voice in return. I walked down and noticed that it was the banging of the front door which was opening and closing due to the chilly wind. I wrapped my arms around myself as it was cold and walked outside still calling them out.

After walking to a distance I saw father D'Mello lying on the floor and the figure of a man with a rock in his hand ready to smash the sexton. I couldn't bare the horrified scene and yelled for help.

"Who are you? Stop right there...HELP!! Someone HELP!!" I shouted as I ran towards him and I noticed I was in the cemetery, as if the scenario wasn't scary enough already. Jason was fighting down some spirits afar when he saw me coming.

"Olive, get inside the house." Jason shouted at me as he wrestled one really creepy spirit in rags attacking him.

"...but Father D'Mello" I said as I was shivering at what was happening. For a moment I was numb but yet again I kept moving forward to save the sexton when I saw that the man was none other than Edward, "ED? What in the world do you think you're doing?"

"You better ran away if you don't want to die along your boyfriend and this old man" He said in so much aggression, that it felt like he was completely a different man than I know of.

"You leave him alone." I yelled, just when Jason came from behind and pushed Ed away so as to make him lose the grip of the rock and fall down.
Jason then took him by the collar and tired to punch him just when I saw a very dark figure stood right behind him. It was a mytx

"Look behind Jason." I screamed and Ed started to laugh at our misery

"What is it? I can't see." Fathed D'Mello said as the old man puffed his chest out of breathlessness

"Its a mytx" Jason said as the murk standing figure, it almost came over him as he shouted, "run in the church" Jason took my hand and we all ran towards the church

"You all will be dead if you didn't stop trespassing my space." Edward said with an evil laugh and left.

"What was that?" I shouted

"There's something I didn't tell you and your parents Olive." Father D'Mello said

"I'm listening father." I said

"You remember the last time you all came here, didn't you feel it strange that Edward happen to be here just at the same time?" He said

"Yes but he did tell he was here for some work" I told him

"Work huh!" Jason laughed and I gave him a side eye

"Well I felt a sense of negativity around Edward but I thought I was mistaken." He concluded

"I told you so many times Olive, he never wanted you, he sure has a purpose behind everything he's doing." Jason said

"And we need to find it before he tries to harm us again." I said, stood up and brushed myself and walked towards the sexton's house.

"Olive, are you alright?" Jason came to me worried

"No" I said, he was the only person in front of whom I wasn't ashamed to show how vulnerable and fearful I was, "I'm not okay baby, I can't feel okay. I could never imagine a man I really looked up to can be this dangerous and moreover was only using me. I thought I deserved all the credits I had received so far, for all the work or the person he thought I was." I explained and burst out crying, Jason moved up close to me and wrapped me around his arms, then shushed! me like I was a baby
