Chapter 17 - Regression

"What do you mean, Della?!" Asked Robin.

"I think Mike lied to us..." Said Della.

"Is this the Della who argued with me a while ago?" Asked Robin.

"Robin, I am not joking...This is serious!!" Yelled Della.

"I think we shouldn't talk about this in the phone." Said Robin.

Della assented and they all assembled at Della's room.

Della elucidated Robin about why she thinks that Mike was a part of this.

" I still don't want it to be true." Said Della with a frown.

" Come on Della, forget him." Said Robin.

"Shut up Robin. Please." Said Della.

An hour passed and they were eating lunch.

" I feel like there are no ghosts and spirits in the house." Said Robin.

" Of course there isn't! Because a ghost wouldn't know if we wear a camera. Does it?" Asked Della.

Della wore a camera whenever she entered the house to collect the evidences. So, it would clearly record everything.

That's why Robin concluded that there are not ghosts and spirits in the house.

"We should go to the Onti Clocko one last time." Said Della.

They all assented with each other.

After a while, they heard someone talking with Della's dad in his room.

"Della, who is it?" Asked Robin.

"Maybe, your dad's friend?" Asked Lexi.

"No, this voice seems familiar. It is MIKE." Said Della.

Robin and Lexi were trembling.

Della seemed to be confident. She went forward and opened the room's door.

"What made you come here at this hour, Mike?" Asked Della boldly.

"Oh, Hey. I left my purse here." Said Mike.

"Did you find it, Mike?" Asked Della.

"Oh yeah, and are you going somewhere Dell?" asked Mike.

"Yeah Mike, do you want to join us?" Asked Della.

Robin and Lexi were astounded.

"No, thanks. It's already late. My hotel is a little far from your house. Guess I will join y'all later." Said Mike.

"Oh, I can understand, Mike." Said Della.

Mike left to his hotel.

"Della, what were you thinking?!" Asked Lexi.

"Are you serious right now?! Why are you being sweet to him again?" Followed Robin.

"I just feel like he is innocent, Robin..." Said Della.

"WHAT?!" Asked Robin.

" I hope Mike isn't a part of this..." Said Della
