Chapter Four

***Four Years Later***

Amelia is five years old. She has grown up to be a beautiful kid. Her beautiful black curly hair packed up in a ponytail with a red hairclip attached to one side of her hair. Her brown eyes turns golden brown when the sun shines through them. She was fit and a little chubby. Being the only child made her well taken care of.

Today, she is starting kindergarten at her new school- Brilliant Kids but Amelia has no intention of going to school because she's scared of how she'd be treated.

She was in her room when a ghost appeared to her. The ghost was twenty years old with her with blond hair and boggy green eyes. Amelia had gotten used to seeing ghosts so she's no longer afraid of them.

"You're going to school?" the ghost spoke to her.

Amelia nodded. "What will you be doing while I'm gone?". She asked the girl.

"I don't know...probably sightseeing." The ghost told her earning a weird look from Amelia.

"Sightseeing?" Amelia asked not believing her ears. "I'll just pretend you didn't say that."

"Why? You don't think we ghosts need to go sightseeing?" The Ghost asked.

"Yes...because you're dead. Instead of sightseeing, you should think of a way to back to the land of the dead or wherever you ghosts go and rest in peace."

The ghost folded her arms as she stared at Amelia knowing that she was mocking her.

"Anyways, you've been living with me for years now and I have no idea what your name is."

"I'm Tessa Huston but you can call me Aunt Tessa." Tessa said proudly.

Amelia looked at her before bursting into laughter.

"What's funny? I'm way way older than you."

"True but you're dead and you'll probably be like this for thousand years. While I'm getting older, you'll still be twenty years old. So if there's anyone to be called aunt here, is this girl right here." Amelia said pointing to herself.

Tessa thought about it and someone she found out the girl was right. How can a girl be so little and yet very smart.

Amelia and Tessa heard footsteps. Amelia told Tessa to hide but Tessa stood there. It took few seconds for Amelia to notice she was talking to a ghost and only her sees them.

"Why do I even bother?" Amelia said as her mother came in.

"Hey baby, are you ready for your new school?" Laura asked.

Amelia gave a fake smile. "Yeah."

"Let's go down your dad is waiting for us." Laura said. As they were about leaving, Tessa stood at the door holding the handle of the door, when Laura tried opening the door she couldn't. Amelia tried shooing Tessa away without her mother knowing but she couldn't.

"Honey!" Laura called as Andre came. "Can you help open the door? I thin it's stuck."

Andre grabbed the handle and was about turning it when Tessa left the handle and immediately the door opened making Andre fall over with his wife and Amelia. Tessa looked at them and bursted into laughter.

Amelia gave Tessa a stern look as she helped her parents up.

"That was awkward." Andre said as he gestured his wife and kid to leave while he took a look at the door.

Tessa was standing there looking at him and laughing. "This is going to be fun." She said.
