I think Mr. Tobias came to the same conclusion as I. Someone wanted us to meet up that afternoon. Whatever information I needed was to come from Mr. Tobias. Maybe I could relax now and stop worrying that something was coming for me and would beam me up into space or to another dimension.

“Can you always see them?” I asked Mr. Tobias.

“No, sometimes I know they’re around because of a smell.”

“Really? What kind of smell?”

“Flowers. Or a feather floats down in front of me, or I witness something that shouldn’t be possible, and I know they’re near.”

“What do you mean by something that shouldn’t be possible?”

“People getting healed, something like that.”

“Like my dad.”

“Yes.” He motioned to Nurse Paige and pointed down the road. “My bus is coming and so are your friends.”

“But you said that before looking around. How did you know that?”

“I just know. Listen, I won’t talk about this around anyone. You will learn what people think of you if you start telling them everything you see.”

“But I have more questions about all of this.”

“I’m sure you do,” he said, sitting up. “Too much information at one time is useless. You will only focus on certain aspects of what I’ve told you. Your gift is limited right now, and there’s a reason for that. A little at a time, Little Gleamer. We’ll discuss this further later. They’re bringing us together for that purpose.”

“They? Are there many? Are they only in the hospital? Is it possible for me to see them anywhere?”

“Yes, they are many and they are everywhere.”

“But the one from the hospital—”

Nurse Paige jogged toward us. “Time to go.”

The bus pulled up at the corner and Nurse Paige waved at the driver while fussing at Mr. Tobias to hurry.

“Wait! Just tell me one more thing. Can they take human form?” I yelled.

Theodore pulled up next to me on his bike. “Hey, we’re out in the open. I don’t think you should be yelling stuff like that.”

We watched the bus let down some kind of lift for Mr. Tobias’s wheelchair.

“Did either of you hear Mr. Tobias? Did he answer my question?”

“How could anyone hear anything anyone else says over his nurse? She never shuts up, does she?”

We watched the bus pull away.

“Well, that was a short talk, what did he tell you?”

“It wouldn’t have been so short if you didn’t all of a sudden need a milkshake!”

“My bad, what did he say? He sent the text?”

I shrugged. “He really didn’t have time to say much.”

“Yeah, but you were talking.”

“I didn’t learn anything.”

“Fine. Don’t tell us, then!” Chana exclaimed and turned on her bike toward our neighborhood.

“Chana, wait.”

“No, keep it to yourself, if that’s how you want to be.” She pulled off and I watched the back of her two curly afro puffs bob up and down as she pedaled.

“Now you’ve made her mad,” Teddy said and rode ahead to catch up to her.

“What did I do?”

“You did that face thing. She knows you’re lying,” he yelled back.

Sheesh!

I turned
