FOUR HOURS. from 11 pm to 3 am , she has been tormented ( television turning to static , lights turning themselves on and off , various noises in the corners of the room , bathroom door slamming on its own ). at any other place, she would have run down the hall to BANG on matt and zac’s door ( SHE ALMOST HAS ). yet, there is a sneaking suspicion -- in between her dozing and waking with a racing heart -- that she encountered this ghost earlier. if, and only if, what her friends had said about michael was true , then there was a strong possibility. deep breath / eyes close ; breath released / eyes open. shifting from side to back , eyes settle on the patio windows. “ if you’re the same ghost as earlier , i know you can show yourself --- or speak at the very least. ” she’s had enough of the games. she’s EXHAUSTED. she wants to be brave this time.
