Kaz continued into the children’s center. All the books were back on the shelves now. And his Claire was chatting with some adults near an empty library cart. Whew, Kaz thought. She’s still here.

Claire looked happy to see him, too. “I need to go to the bathroom,” she told the ladies she was talking to. She motioned for Kaz to follow her.

Claire pushed the restroom door open, and Kaz wafted in behind her. She checked all the stalls to make sure there was nobody in them. Once she was sure they were alone, she turned to Kaz. “What happened? You guys were gone a long time.” She leaned against the sink. “And where’s Little John?”

“I don’t know,” Kaz moaned. He told Claire how they’d found the sad library ghost in the dumbwaiter and chased him through the library and then through the floor of the parking garage. He told her how hard it was to swim through concrete. How skizzy it made him feel. And he told her how he’d waited and waited for Little John to come back.

“I should never have turned back,” Kaz went on. “If I’d kept going all the way through the concrete, I wouldn’t have lost Little John.”

“You don’t know that, Kaz,” Claire said. She tried to pat him on the back, but her hand went right through him. “You might have lost him anyway. And you might have lost yourself, too. I think you did the right thing turning back.”

Kaz wasn’t sure he agreed.

The bathroom door banged open, and Maddie poked her head in. “Claire?” she said. “Are you okay?”

Claire shook her head. “We’ve got a problem,” she said. “Little John is lost.”
