The Cornelius Saga Series Box Set 2

After the oil came to a slight boil, he put the fish in the pan and watched as swarms of flies suddenly appeared out of nowhere around it. Shooing them away, Wade refused to go inside and cook on the stove: He and Mira had established something special together out there frying their catch on the make-shift stove and no army of flies was going to change that.
After turning the fish over with a spatula, Wade looked up and saw Mira approaching. She went and sat down on the other large rock near the fire. Wade, elated that his sister had decided to join him, showed no reaction.
"The fish looks good," Mira said, looking at her brother.
Unable to hold back any longer, Wade asked: "What happened in that house, Mira? Why did you leave like that?"
Mira looked down for a moment. "I'm not sure. I thought… I saw something."
"Saw what?" Wade probed, curiosity in over-drive.
"I saw a woman, okay?" Mira decided to just get it out in spite of how crazy it might sound. "She was wearing a long, white dress—looked old fashioned to me—and it was covered in blood."
Wade gawked. "Are you serious?"
"'Course, I'm serious!" Mira snapped. "You think I would've took off like that for nothing?"
"Where was she?"
"In the closet."
"What was she doing?"
"Just standing there," Mira replied. "She seemed so sad. Well, I'm not going back there anymore. I don't care about dillies or anything else. I'm never going back on that property."
"I wonder why she's there." Wade was engrossed in thought.
"So you believe me?" Mira asked, feeling hopeful.
"Sure, I do. I know you'd never make something like that up. Besides, from the way you took off down those stairs, you had to see something." He laughed.
Mira smiled, then laughed out loud. Wade jumped on that opportunity to tease her as they sat and waited for their fish to cook.
