Angel didn’t let me out of her sight as we walked to Dr. Greene’s office. He opened the door as we approached. Talk about a set-up.

Dr. Greene motioned us to the couch along the wall of his office. He sat in a chair to my side. Next to him sat a small table with a stack of folders and a sheet of paper on top. Probably the order to have me locked back on the isolation floor.

The paper slid off the stack of folders and landed upside down on the floor. He cleared his throat and bent to grab the paper. Since I felt no breeze, I glanced around. Could Rena be in the room?

“Let’s get started.” Dr. Greene folded his hands in his lap as Sylvia often did. Having grown up around Joel, I knew he was more like his mother than he cared to admit. If he pressed my buttons, I’d make sure to tell him so.

“I heard you’ve had a rough day,” he said.

“That’s what you’re going with?” I turned to Angel. “This is a waste of my time.”

She gripped my arm, forcing me to stay seated. “Excuse me if I’d rather you talk to Dr. Greene than go back to your room and think about Rena alone.”

Again, the paper slid from the table. Dr. Greene’s hand twitched as he looked down. I’d forgotten how much disorder bugged him. I wiped my face with my hand. Stop, I told myself. No more psychoanalyzing the doctor.

“I don’t know what’s going on,” he said.

“Rena’s making the paper fall,” I said. “She’s a ghost now, which is why we’re here. Sylvia lied to me, so did my dad and Agent Mason.” I glared at Angel. “Even my sister. They all plotted to have Rena killed. Van pulled the trigger, but they’re all guilty.”

He blinked. “I don’t believe in ghosts.”

“That’s all you heard me say?”

“No, I heard the part about what happened to Rena. You’re upset. None of us can possibly understand what you’re going through. But we’re here for you. This agency is a family and we’ll do whatever it takes to help you through this.”

I pointed at the paper. “How can you not believe what you’re seeing?”

“I believe I’m seeing the paper fall, but I don’t believe a ghost is causing the movement.”

“Who else can it be?” Angel asked.

“Not what, but who, you ask?” Dr. Greene sighed. “We all know Rena’s mother had a power that brought her back in an otherworldly form. You call it a ghost, but I see her return as one of hundreds of powers this agency has discovered and cataloged over the years.”

“You weren’t there,” I said. “You didn’t see her body vaporize in a flash of red.”

“Call her dead if you will,” he said. “Rena’s isn’t gone. According to Agent Mason, she’s training with her mother to strengthen her power.”

“He’s been by to see you?” I gripped the arm of the couch. “What he did is worse than Van. He betrayed his own daughter.
