Amy slowly drew the phone from her ear, all depressed and frustrated with heavy heart. She scoffed, involuntarily blinking her eyes as tears strolled down her cheeks. Her gaze fell on Laura's picture on the wall_with a morose look, she drifted closer.  A faint, sorrowful smile dazzled on her face as she gently brushed her hand over the frame. 

"(sniffs with tears in her eyes)Nothing had ever been the same with your absence, Laura, my baby. Everyone misses you, especially, Mya and Kelvin(sobs); mummy misses you too", she mumbled and breaks down in tears.

Kelvin stood over the stairs without Amy's notice. He glanced at her mother in tears. His heart always ache to see his family especially his mother in such pain and agony after that day. Every passing day was like hell, a nightmare that was inevitable. His father hardly comes home from work and Mya always returns late and drunk.

    By the flip of a finger, Raina was already right beside Rubin. Lupita, Jack and Ivy gazed at her in awe. "Geez, she can be so unbelievable – how can she just ditch us like that?", mumbled Ivy with wide–eyed, slightly shaking her head wearing a deadpan gaze. Jack and Lupita chuckled,"That's so like her", Jack whispered and they both laughed.Rubin dropped his bag beside his desk and turned only to find Raina staring at him with her head on the desk.

    "No, Rubin, don't talk to her– she's a ghost. Don't make her find out you can see her", he faintly whispered to himself, looking down at Alixes.Laura glared at him with quite a disappointed and confused look, slowly dropping her hand from the wave. The previous smile slowly faded away."Is it really true he can't see me?", she wondered in her thoughts. "But why did I feel he did? He even looked at my direction in shock. No, I got to find out myself– I'm so sure he saw me". A mischievous smile suddenly dazzled on her face as she stared at him thoughtfully.He stared down at Alixes with a faint smile and dropped her bag on the table beside the bed, ignoring Laura's gaze. "Hey, Alixes, I know you don't know me but don't worry, I'm your new friend. We are in the same class and also sit next to each other in class now. I just came to drop your bag".

    THE BROWN'S MANSIONMrs. Audrey Brown, Rubin's mother was at the hall, her head buried in a magazine with Annabella, his 8years old sister watching Frozen– her favorite Disney film when Rubin barged in. Their attention was deftly drawn to the door with the rate in which the door was shut closed as if to pull the whole mansion down. A sheepish grin dazzled on his lips at the fixed eyes that met his. Annabel chuckled and giggled at the sight of her brother. She sprung to her feet and sped towards him ,"Ru–bin....", she shouted–giggling and hugged him.He laughed as he gently brushed his hand through her hair, "Hey, miss you so much, Anna. How was school today?"."Great, just miss the time we schooled together. It's kind of empty without you during break", she ended with a chuckle.Rubin remained silent for a second as he just furrowed his brows and studied his sister's face, caressing her cheeks.

"Who says I don't smile, I'm not a non-living thing or something of that sort. I'm human so I definitely smile". He glanced back at Laura who had her eyes fixed on him with a sardonic, mischievous smile.Noticing the look on her face, he softly chuckled roguishly, facing her in the process which made Laura chuckle witheringly as well. He unexpectedly pricked her nose, playfully with a deadpan look. "Huh, what's with that look –what's funny?". Ouch, hey, that hurts", she cried, not realizing that he was able to touch her. Laura wore an etched look with her fingers caressing her nose, pretending to be in pain. Rubin felt guilty; he immediately pulled her closer with a concerned, worried look, examining her nose.

He winced, drowsily opening his eyes as he turned to the other side of the bed.Unknowingly to him, Laura was kneeling beside his bed, staring at him whiles he was asleep.

He almost forgot the mere fact that he sees ghost and there was a super clingy one following him around.He let out an inaudible sigh as he sat up, fully being conscious of himself now. "God Laura," He groaned. "Must you keep doing this?" He scowled at her as he shrug up and Laura yelped. "Sorry–" She also stood up. "You're no fun at all."

She snarled and went after them.Rubin on the other hand, knew without being told what he was in for but then, this wasn't the time. They were both going to get it hard from Mr. Hooks if they should get to class late."Hold on Alexis." He instinctively snatched his hand from her, stopping in his tracks.

    Tarry not towards the end,Await and appreciate,As you are now,Your sorrow and your joy,Each defines a part of you.Confining you not,To the Limitations of life.Await for yourself,Yet, a new hope,That lingers not in the tribulations of Life,Conforming one to the fraternities of it,And leaving them ajar to the cruelties yet unseen.Rather,Guard yourselves with the bleeding truth,Which suffers in it's own way,But yet still harbors great luxuries.Its tenacities are grave,But reviving to the core,Leaving no elements untouched,And no brooding unanswered.It serves as another urge,That keeps the world revolving.

Mya pressed but Laura's answer just remained the same with a nod." Hey... is everything okay ?" Amy queried just when she closed upon them, taking note of the scene that seem unpleasant and alarming." Yes, mum... you know I hate the scent of hospitals~ I guess it had begun its effects on me after the numerous stay here. Can we go now?"

Have you already met Alixies ?"His lips pursed in despair while his gaze spontaneously traveled down to his feet as the question rang in his ears.
