The old wood floor creaks as the faceless man walks towards the door then turns around towards me.
“Are you coming? If you don’t hurry we will be late.”
“Yes dad I am coming!”
I smile brightly as my mom sneaks up on me and kiss me goodbye.
“My two handsome men don’t be late to dinner or you will see.”
Then I ran towards the faceless man I call dad…
Alex woke as always in soaked sweat and rushing heartbeat. It was same dream of same day and countless reminders when ever thing went wrong. He hated this never changing dream, no it was changing in one detail that was his father face was slowly fading away.
First he thought of it as bliss but it slowly turn nightmare as tried to remember a forgotten memory of lost time.
He went up of the bed and sat in edge and look in to mirror in front of him. It was memento from his father. He hated how he looked especially the eyes because the dream where not the only reminder of that half forgotten day which destroyed everything was his eyes or rather his left eye that had changed that day mysteriously from brown to the color of blue. He had two different eye colors since that day
He looked at bed table which had pair of black pants, white t-shirt, black hooded jersey and some bed sheets. He quickly changed and put the new sheets on bed and Alex pick up the soiled sweaty clothes and bed sheets from the floor and went to laundry. He used to as it was one of his daily routine.
After quick breakfast his mother woke up and smiles at him with sleepy face covered in silky brown hair. It was hard to imagine she was cop with drool coming down from her left mouth and dress in only a t-shirt and shorts.
“Mom, as you know breakfast is in microwave and your boss called they need you at station.”
Suddenly her face changed to serious and almost yelled at Axel
“What did he say, Alexander?”
“Something about old case that you been working for ever without leads had interesting turn I think.”
Her face light up and she ran towards bread put in toaster and ran up to her room with incredibly speed.
Alex look amused which was rarely but most time it was his mother that amused him because she was the type to fall into comical and troublesome situations.
“Yo, she seems more active then usually. Do you know what happen?” said husky voice from behind Alex.
Alex looked vicious at the owner of voice which was old grey haired man strangely dressed in a suit with bow tie and big hat with monocle on.
“Shut up, Gus. How many times do I have to tell you move on to other side?”
“But Master Williams you know if I knew how to move on. I would for 120 years ago.”
Alex look irritated at the ghost since the color blue was not the only side effect his left eye had it could also see ghost but only from his left eye and it somehow attract ghost.
Gus was the thirty seventh one that crashed in his house and he has stayed in house for nearly two years.
“Jeez soon I will have to get a personal exorcist because of this random drop in by you guys.”
Gus smiled died and start mutter something that Alex couldn’t hear.
“What are you saying, Gus?”
The terrified Gus look at Alex and he start begging for mercy and not call a exorcist and something about it hurt his essence when he pulled out Alex house.
“Oh right. But what do mean by your essence?”
Gus look surprise at Alex and then little confused.
“Master William, haven´t none of the others ones told you about it?”
Alex look at him little guilty since he never tried to understand them and just ignore them.
“No, I have ignored them and pretend they don’t exist so what is it?”
Gus laughed then Alex´s mom went right trough him and shiver went down Alex spine.
