David: The Things We Do

The ghost has lived in the house with me since I was a child. Her name is Emma. Whenever I lost someone, she would come to me and comfort me. When I was a teenager, I contemplated suicide so I could be with her. She told me how much her having a connection to a living soul meant to her. I stayed alive for her. When my parents burned to death, she gathered them up and escorted them to the place beyond death, for my sake.

Shh, don’t struggle. I’ll make it quick. I’ll make her come back to me.
