The Wedding Tree (2015)
““Top of the mornin’ to you, dearie!”
“Good morning.” I rubbed my eyes, which temporarily reduced the number of aides by half.
“Do you need something? I thought I heard you talking.”
“Must have been talking in my sleep.” Seems easier to tell her that than to admit the truth: I see dead people.
Oh, I know that’s not original—I know it’s a line from a recent movie—although Hope would laugh if she heard me call it recent, because it’s probably a dozen or more years old now.
The ...thing is, I saw Charlie. I think it was a dream, but it seemed as real as my encounters with Mother. It jarred me, because it never occurred to me that I’d have to deal with him again once I’m dead. I guess I hadn’t figured we’d end up in the same place.
But then, it’s also just recently occurring to me that I might have underestimated the mercy of God.MoreLess
