This House

5

The next day i stayed home from school, i had a therapy appointment at 11 and i was in such a bad mood so my mom let me stay home. I wasnt looking forward to this. I didnt want some stranger judging me and thinking im nuts, because who wouldnt think im insane. On the way to the appointment i was silent like i had been all day. When we got to the place we were only waiting for a few minutes before someone came out to us.

"Alex?" a woman said

"Yeah?" i asked

"Hi im Leslie, and you must be Alex's mom Tina" Leslie said

"Hi Leslie" my mom said

"Alright so Alex you wanna come to my office so we can talk?" Lesie asked

"Sure" i said

"Okay come on" she said

"Good luck" my mom said to Lesie and i followed her

We walked down a long hallway and into her office, i was not excited at all to talk to this lady. I took a seat on the couch and picked at a tiny hole that was forming at the bottem of my shirt. After a few minutes of silence because she was writing somthing we started the session.

"So Alex do you know why your here?" she asked

"Uhmm...because my mom basically thinks im either crazy or spiking a fever. Im not crazy though and i dont have a high fever" i said

"No of course not. Why does your mom think your spiking a fever?" she asked

"Because i was kinda sick yesterday, but i wasnt so sick i was hallucinating" i said

"Okay. So why dont you explain it all to me" she said

"Okay. Well the house we moved into is really haunted, i hear voices and foot steps and yesterday i actually saw someone" i said

"Has anyone else experienced this?" she asked

"My friends and sister have heard things" i said

"Mhmm, you know i lived in a haunted house when i was younger" she said

"Really?. It didnt happen to be the house on Seymore ave" i laughed joking

"Actually. Yes it was" she said

"Really!?" i said

"Mhmm, it was a house that was in my family for decades" she said

"So you know about the ghost and hauntings?" i asked

"Yes. The ghost were my great great grandparents who used to be paranormal specialist at their church" she said

"Thats explains alot i almost started to believe i was going insane. Along with everyone else" i said

"Your not crazy Alex, i experienced everything you did. I was out of there as soon as possible, i didnt return home much at all during college or after. It was to scary" she said

"This is awesome! im so glad you know what im going through" i said

"Yep i deffinetly do" she said

We finished up our session and then me and my mom went out for lunch. She kept pushing me to tell her what we talked about, i told her it was doctor patient confideniality. In reality i just didnt want her judging me. After lunch i had my mom drop me off at Jacks, he wasnt home since it was only 1 and his mom wasnt either but it didnt matter i'd just wait. Later while i was sitting on the steps he came home and looked at me like i was nuts.

"Hey Alex" he said confused getting out of his car and walking up the path

"Hey!" i said

"So how as therapy, are they medicating you?" he asked sitting next to me

"Nope!, dude my therapist knows about my house. She lived there!, shes experienced the hauntings. Can you believe that?!" i said shocked

"No way!. Thats unreal" he said

"Yeah, its so good to know she doesnt think im a wack job" i said

"Yeah, so how'd you sleep last night?" he said

"Horribly, i swear its so hard to sleep since im so freaked out" i said

"Not surprised" he said

"Yeah, how'd your mom like the gash" i said

"She flipped a dick" he said and i laughed

"Flipped a dick?" i asked

"Yeah you know what i mean, she freaked out" he said

"Mhmmm, what did she say?" i asked

"Shes like Jack what the hell happened!? and im like i was attacked by a ghost and shes like your insane blah blah blah" Jack said

"Damn" i said

"Mhmm, but lets go inside okay?" he asked and i nodded and we went inside

We hungout and watched tv for a bit, i felt so much more relaxed at his house. When his mom came home she went and made dinner and me and Jack helped set the table. While we were helping Jacks mom asked me to get a towel from the hallway closet so she could clean the mess she just made. I walked down the hall and grabbed a towel fom the closet, under it was a ouija board. That gave me a idea. I walked back to the kitchen and gave Jacks mom the towel, then i went over to Jack.

"Dude you have a ouija board?" i said

"Yeah ive had it for-...oh no. No Alex i know what your thinking and no!" Jack said

"Oh dude come on!, maybe if we speak to it we can make it leave" i said

"Have you seen Paranormal Activity?!, you dont wanna mess with the afterlife" he said

"Jack, those movies were fake. Plus we messed with it the other night" i said

"Exactly!, look what happened there" he said

"Dude come on" i whinned

"Fine we can play with it tommrow after school" he said

"No. Tonight" i said and he looked hesitant but nodded
