Ghost

I never believed in ghost, I always thought of it as old superstitions and wise tales. That was until early one spring, Monday morning. I had been practicing as a psychiatrist for over ten years, in Houston Texas. I was at my office desk getting ready to begin my weekly routine, when my phone rang.

“Robert Baxter speaking, how can I help you?”

On the other end was my sister Theresa, from North Carolina. I hadn’t heard from her since the funeral. Her 15 year old son, had been killed in a car accident.

She had called about her twelve year old daughter, Lenora. I knew she had taken her brother’s death badly. But now my sister wanted me to fly out to Greensboro

Immediately. It seems she had gotten worse.

“OK! I’ll try and get a flight out this evening.”

The next day I found myself driving up to her countryside home in a rental car from the airport. My sister appeared right away on her house’s porch as I drove up. “Robert! I am so glad you came!” My sister hugged me and then her husband Larry came out of the front door as well. “How is she?” I asked Theresa’s face turned into a sad look and then she shook her head. Once inside their two story home. Theresa described to me what type of problems Lenora was having.

“We got her the cat and it seemed to help her alot. She stopped crying everyday and then about a month ago the accident occurred!”

“I see and now that the cat is gone, it sounds like she is having difficulty coping with another death?” I asked Theresa and her husband, both became silent with blank stares on their faces in reply. “Uncle Robert!”

Lenora coming from her upstairs bedroom ran to me and gave me a hug.

“How is my little precious niece?”

“I am doing great Uncle! Wait a minute I forgot to feed Fluffy!”

Lenora went and got a bowl for cat food and then filled it up and put it on the living room table. “There you go Fluffy! You must not be hungry!”

The twelve year old girl motioned her hand as if she was rubbing a cat.

Me, Theresa and her husband stood there watching in shock. While Lenora patted and rubbed on thin air. Tears rolled down Theresa’s cheek at the display.

“I’ll see you later uncle Robert! I have piano lessons!” Lenora rushed out of the door leaving the bowl of cat food on the table. “I thought getting that cat would help her!” Theresa began to sob and cry. “Robert! You are a doctor. Can you help her? Larry hugged his wife to console her.

“I’ll try Theresa! I’ll try!” Later that evening we left to get some chinese food and then after dinner. “Fluffy finally ate her food!” We were all sitting at the dinner table. We looked over to a corner in the kitchen and sure enough the cat food bowl was empty. “What had gotten into you? Lenora eating that cat food!”

“No momma! Fluffy ate it, she was hungry!” Theresa left the dining table visibly upset.
