“That’s it! Right over there!” Fiona shouted. Her
friends thought she had completely lost her mind but wisely kept their
mouths shut.
Fiona turned to Liza and Abby, “I know this is the
place. I can feel him. He’s here.” They both knew who she was referring
to and still they thought she was crazy but smiled anyway.
From the looks they were giving her, Fiona knew she
needed to calm down and control her outbursts. But she felt exhilarated
by the fact that she was finally closer to the man who visited her
dreams.
* * * * *
For the past ten months she had been experiencing a
strange, recurring dream. Well, it was a dream until three months prior
when she had seen him appear in the middle of her bedroom.
That was when she’d known that the dreams were more
than that and she had to find the place this man had shown her. At the
time she’d never thought it would bring her and her friends to
Scotland.
The taxi pulled onto the side of the road and Fiona
leaned forward and paid the driver before getting out. She waited for
Liza and Abby to exit the cab before heading towards the ruins of an
ancient castle.
The closer she got to the crumbling walls that had
vines growing haphazardly up them, the closer she felt to him. She
couldn't tell Abby and Liza his name, not yet. She had to see him first,
had to know for sure that it wasn't just her imagination.
Abby called out to Fiona, “Would you slow down? Good
Lord woman, there's nothing there but a pile of old, falling down,
dirty, moss covered bricks.”
Liza elbowed Abby and whispered, “Don't irritate her.
You know how she's been ever since she saw that man or vision or
whatever it was.”
Abby frowned, “I know, but I seriously think she's
got some weird mojo going on in that head of hers.” Abby shook her head
and watched Fiona stop in front of the ruins. “I told her all that
meditation would make her lose her marbles and I was right.”
* * * * *
Fiona couldn't believe it, she'd found the entrance
he had shown her. The entrance he had used countless times and the
entrance that had led him to his death. She was certain there was
something more he wasn't telling her about his mysterious death.
