Chapter 4
I take my slipper off and put it back on. Huh? If I can't lift anything then why can I lift my slipper? The voice better explain it to me!
I wait until the door is open and when my sister finally goes and opens it to walk our dog i quickly dart out of the house. I feel bad for saying that I am going even knowing that if I say it no one will hear me but I still say "I am going!"
I walk down the street surprised to see one of my freinds riding her bike. I want to call out to her but my mind tells me to not. I set my mind on who the voice is. Through my head it sounds like... You know the voice inside your head that you hear sometimes when you read or have a thought? It's kind of like that. Unexplainable.
Once I get to the park I wonder... How will I know which person is the voice? Then I hear "hello hello" from a boy in the middle of the park. I walk towards him and when he notices me he walks toward me too! He is the voice!
"Hello! Name is Samual. You can call me just Sam" he says shaking my hand. It feels weird shaking someone's hand. "Uh... I am Eve... Can you please explain everything?" I say nervously.
"Ok ok." He begins clearing his throat. "Your room, what ever room your body is in, is called a realm. That realm feeds your body, washes it and keeps it safe. That's why when your in this form you don't need to wash yourself or eat anything."
"Ok... Wait! Are we ghosts?" I say interrupting Sam. He laughs a little and I blush. Was that a bad question? "No no... Where not ghosts. Where.... Invisible...." I stare at him wondering what he will say next. "Hey how do you know all of this?" I ask again.
"Kyle." He says with a sad face. "She was also like us. Except she was like this 10 years ago. I came in this form 2 years ago. Anyways that one year, her last year she told me everything. After all she had lots of years of experience. But that was too long. You see after 5 years people start to forget about you. It might seem silly because your room is there but they look at it as a empty wall. Kyle was trapped in her room where no one is every going to open it. She is trapped. And she told me that if your stuck in your realm for more then a year....." He stopped talking.
After a while he starts talking again his face full of sadness "you die. Kyle is dead" I am surprised of what he told me. "She told me the three was to die is, to touch someone, to touch your self and to stay in your room. I told you that did I?" I nod even though I did not hear the don't stay in your room part.
"Meet me here tomorrow. It's getting dark. There is a chance the realm can break if your invisible self is not in your house. Bye!" He says walking away.
For the rest of the day I wonder... What will happen when they forget about me?
