I began to get startled and jumped up in the air and did a summer sult. While I was turning I saw his face, it seemed sad for some reason? He stood up smiled at me and then left.. "Wait, Jay where are you going?" "I'm sorry, but I'm done." He nodded his head and left the room, I looked out of my window and saw him open the door to the car. He looked up at my winodw surprised to see me there looking out after him. I wanted ot smiel and wave to him but something just pulled me back forcing me not to wave. After his dad started the car they left, I felt something cold touch my shoulder. At first it had scared me, but after a moment or two I opened my mouth and spoke. "Hello Cassie, we all miss you. Really, we do!" I felt an angrey presence behind me. I didn't want to turn around but did it any way. There she was, Cassie her self. I couldn't feel any kind of emotion coming. Not happiness nor sadness, just plain blank.  She reached out her hand to touch me and reassure me that yes she was really there wiht me. But I pulled away from her and said, "Cassie, I know you aren't really here. So you can leave now. I don't need you any more." She made a sad face and then turned away vanishing in the dark of the closet. I closed my eyes trying my best not to cry. I ran to my bed screaming in pain, for I had just let go of a whole part of my sould that had been there through thick and thin, gaurding me at all times ready to be a helper if needed. But turns out, I never needed the little helper, I just made myself think as if so. Cassie had a reason to be there with me, just not forever. I had to learn how to fihgt for my own and not have a little ghost girl run for me guiding my way, just like she had done when Jay ha dsaid her name. Cassie had always taken control of me whenever she wanted to, I didn't control when or when she didn't 5take over me. She did it all herslef, but why? Well, I think I can tell myself what happened to Cassie, I'll be the only one to know so here it goes. Cassie was my twon sister, we where puttign pennies ont eh railroad tracks until...Cassie ddint' move when one came. Every since, she has been living inside of me, waiting to come back ouut and be the three year old girl that once sat by the railroad tracks....The End

  1. Aha - I was right - Cassie *was* Lisa's twin! What a neat twist to the story. It was cool at the end that Lisa decided she had the strength to stand on her own, but also kind of sad that Cassie had to go.

    I love you more than lions love the taste of zebras.
