Chapter Five

“I’ve got it,” Remy said.

“Already?” I asked.

“Brighton, it’s been three hours.”

“No, it’s only been a few minutes. I just looked out the window at the birds, and now you’re done? That’s impossible.”

“Brighton, baby, you’ve been standing there staring out that window for three hours.”

“Oh.”

“It’s all right. Meri helped me find the books I needed. He can read, you know. I didn’t know that. Anyway, I’ve got a list of herbs that could help us.”

“Herbs,” I said, but I was distracted by the birds again. I was having so much trouble focusing on anything but the birds.

“Yes. We’re going to go to Ruby’s Apothecary and see if she has anything on this list. If she does, then I think we can reverse what’s happening with you, or at the very least, we can slow it down.”

Remy took my hand and led me away from the attic window and down the stairs. He patiently reminded me every time I forgot where we were going.

“I’m hungry,” I said as we got into the car.

“We’ll get something as soon as we’re done at Ruby’s,” Remy said.

“Ruby’s?”

“We’re going to get herbs for a spell, sweetie. Put your seatbelt on, please.”

“Oh, right,” I said. “I’m so forgetful.”

“We’re going to fix this,” Remy said.

“Do you think we can?”

“We have to. I don’t know if I can do this without you. You’re the one who solves the murders around here.”

“Murder,” I said. “Oh, right, Margery is dead. She’s in the trunk. Remy, we’re driving around with your dead aunt in the trunk.”

“Hey, that’s great,” he said with a smile. “I mean, it’s not great that we have a body in the trunk, but it’s good that you’re able to remember.”

“It comes and goes,” I said.

And then it went again. We rode in silence to Ruby’s shop, and by the time we got there, I’d completely forgotten why we were going again.

I felt better as soon as we walked into Ruby’s shop. Not completely better, but it was a significant improvement. She was burning patchouli and the scent seemed to clear my head.

“The patchouli is really helping,” I said to Remy. “We should get some oil while we’re here.”

“I was hoping it would. I looked around your house for some earlier, but your bottle was empty.”

“Meri knocked it over a couple of months ago. I haven’t had occasion to use it, so I hadn’t replaced it.”

“It’s good that you remember that,” he said.

“No, Nope. Uh uh. No way,” Ruby said when she saw us. “I don’t want to be involved in this.”

“Ruby, I don’t know how you can not be involved. You’re the only apothecary in a town full of witches, and we’re in the middle of a magical crisis and possible zombie apocalypse,” Remy said.

“First of all, I think you’re being a little dramatic. Second, I’ll help your family with whatever they need. I would never be stupid enough to tell Amelda no, but you two are bad juju. Half the witches in this town, mostly members of your family, Remy, are saying you guys did this.
