When Love Hurts and Ghosts Linger
Page 16
I look and see Levi, my heart skips a beat and then Jack comes running towards me so happy to see me.
“Mummy” he leaps wrapping his arms around me “I knew you would come and get me” he smiles.
“I will always come for you sweetheart and I will never let anyone take you away from me again” I hug him tight.
Levi joins us wrapping his arms around the both of us, it hurts but I don’t care, this is the best feeling in the world, that evil man, ghost, thing tried to destroy me and it was easy to drag me into that world because of my gift, which by the way I still have as the psychic gladly told me.
I now know that I have a bloodline direct to that psycho but I will never become like him, we are who we are because of the choices we make, there are good choices and there are bad choices, only we can decide which road to go down, we are in charge of our own future. I will always make sure I try and do my best to make the right choices.
“I love you” Levi says warmly.
“I love you more”
“Not possible” he smiles.
“And I love you and you and you” Jack giggles.
Now, I know love isn’t a fairy tale, love is hard work, Levi and I have had our arguments and I’m sure in all of the years to come we will have many more. I have been hurt so many times and my gift made my life difficult, but I guess that I just had to wait for the right one to come along, the one who fits into my strange and weird puzzle.
Jack will continue to see Pete and we will continue with our awkwardness and arguing and things won’t always be easy, but that’s what I have come to learn as I’ve grown.
Everyone is sat around the kitchen table, they are smiling and laughing and maybe now things will be a little more normal, I know I will always have this gift but now that Ivan has gone maybe it will be a tad more normal.
I don’t know what I will see but I can hope it will not be anything like I have seen over the years. I go towards the window, the sun is shining brightly in the sky, I would have thought it would have been dark.
I need fresh air; I go down and out of the flat and stand outside the door. I close my eyes and take a deep breath, Levi and I will need to go to the hospital and get checked out I guess, how the fuck will we explain this? I giggle at the thought.
I feel a calm breeze go passed me, leaves surround my feet in an unusual way, like they are being guided, they lift into the air, swirling around up and up as they head towards the blue sky.
There in the clouds I see their faces, Jay’s, Ruth’s, Nan’s, Mum’s and Dad’s and faces of those who had asked for my help, they are free, they are at peace.
They are looking down on me, I smile knowing that no matter what, they will always be there to watch over us….forever.
