Haunted
"Mom, she told me that ghosts don't exist." Shifting towards Melissa, Noah gulped in nervousness, "They don't right?"
"Are you kidding me? Of course they exist." Without waiting for anyone's reply, Charlotte explained, "There was this big abandoned house right behind our school and it was one hundred percent haunted. Some local people and our school guards claimed that they have seen a woman dressed in white walking back and forth in the balcony at night. It is said that the woman is Mrs Adlemen who was stood up by her husband after their wedding. Her husband never showed up after they got married but she used to wait for him dressed in her wedding dress everyday in her balcony hoping that he would show up but he never did. So after a couple of years, she got irritated and killed herself in that balcony itself."
Raising his brows, Owen shoved a tater in his mouth. "Okay now that is spooky."
"Well maybe ghosts don't exist but I do believe that spirits do exist and they are always watching us," Ellie added.
"A-Always?" Noah stuttered.
Helplessly shaking his head, Sebastian chuckled, "Now stop it you guys, do you want Noah to pee his pants again?"
"Wait, what do you mean by again?" Ellie chuckled.
Sebastian was about to say something when Calvin stopped him. "I'll say." Looking at Ellie, he started explaining, "So we were in college and it was our summer break—"
Cutting him off, Ava snapped, "We used to visit our grandfather's farmhouse during our summer break and chill there."
"Yeah so one day, grandpa had to leave for a night because he had to attend something important and we had to stay with housekeeper Jones for the night," Sebastian added.
Cutting them off, Noah scoffed, "In my defence, housekeeper Jones was a really scary man. He looked like Yeti and—"
"Oh please, just because uncle Jones was a little hairy doesn't make him a Yeti," Ava retorted.
Scrunching his brows, Noah snapped, "A little? You think that was a little hair? I accidentally dropped a small piece of lego in his arm hair and couldn't find it. They were that dense and made him look like a monster."
"Hmm can we stop discussing man hair and talk about the peeing part?" When everyone gave him a weird look, Brandon shrugged his shoulders, "What? I just wanna know why Noah peed his pants."
"Well anyway, so that night we decided to do something fun and Owen suggested that we should talk to the spirits—"
Cutting Ava off, Noah frowned, "I told them that it is a very bad idea but they didn't listen to me, even Sebastian thought it was a nice idea."
"I was just bored and wanted to try something fun too," Sebastian added.
"What happened after that?" Ellie curiously inquired.
"So we made that board—hmmm what is it called?" Ava asked before looking at Owen.
"Ouija board," he answered.
"Yes Ouija board, so we made that board and were all ready to talk to any spirit but before we could even start it, Noah suddenly jumped in and started yelling. He then ran out of the room peeing his pants—" Laughing out loud, Ava added, "Oh God it was so funny."
"Wait, what did he see?" Charlotte inquired.
Helplessly shaking his head, Sebastian chuckled, "Right when we were about to start, uncle Jones entered the room with beverages and snacks for us so Noah saw him and thought it was some kind of a monster."
"You guys are such liars, I was already very scared and when suddenly he appeared I just freaked out." Without waiting for anyone's reply, Noah added, "And I didn't pee, I just spilled water all over the floor."
Rolling her eyes at him, Ava scoffed, "Oh please, stop lying."
"Dude, your pee was all over your pants and the floor," Owen chuckled.
Patting Noah's head, Melissa chuckled, "Ah you guys, stop teasing my baby."
"Geez so you really peed your pants? Are you tha scared of ghosts?" Charlotte inquired.
"What is there not to be scared about? Haven't you seen horror movies which are based on real events? I am telling you guys, my daughter will never play with dolls. I mean, what if one of them turns out to be Anabelle's sister?" Noah explained.
"Okay now if we are done teasing Noah, let's talk about the trip." Pausing for a while, Sebastian added, "First, everyone is in, right?"
"Charlotte and I are one hundred percent in," Noah answered.
Owen nodded his head and answered, "We are joining too."
"What about Bojo and Boji? Where will they stay?" June inquired.
"We have already thought about that, they will be staying with uncle Sam and aunt Rosy," Ellie answered.
Rubbing his hands together, Calvin smiled, "Then we are all set, when are we leaving?"
"Well, El and I have plans of flying to Seattle next weekend so maybe after that?" Melissa answered.
Thinking for a while, Brandon suggested, "Why don't we start off next Sunday? You both can fly to Seattle on Friday and then fly to Hawaii from there on Sunday. We will fly there on Sunday as well."
"Hmm I like this plan but I don't want to leave Ellie alone for such a long flight." Pretending to think for a while, Sebastian suggested, "Why don't Noah and I also fly to Seattle with you guys? We can stay in a hotel and then all of us can fly out together."
"That is a nice plan, what do you think babe?" Noah inquired.
Shrugging her shoulders, Melissa answered, "I am okay with it."
Leaning towards Sebastian, Ellie chuckled, "Nice one Mr Stewart, you are really a very intelligent man."
"I told you I will come up with something, there is no way you can leave me alone Ellie Miller." Wrapping his arms around her waist, Sebastian whispered, "I'll always stick close to you and never let you go anywhere."
