What if you could bring him back?
Cheryl does her best to ignore the voice that seems to envelope her like smoke.
It would be so easy; just like when you’d switch places when you were kids
“To kill myself?” Cheryl feels the chill as she answers
No, the other boy
She wakes from the nightmare silent. She knows she’s shaking but she feels relief, she can finally have Jason back, her family will be together and nothing bad will happen again.
He’s been missing for days. Did you hear they haven’t found his body?. Poor boy; so young. His parents are devastated. He had such a bright future. He’s gone, he’s gone he’s gone.
Cheryl watches as they pull the body from the water, they don’t show his face, don’t let anyone by the rivers edge identify him. Nobody needs to, everyone knows the bright red hair the instant they see it.
