"how" I heard both of them say at the same time.
The situation I was in right now I didn't know how to act or what to say, xavier and Zion kept staring at each other.
The expression on Zion's face was unreadable. The tears on his eyes were threatening to fall off any moment from now.
I turned to look at xavier at that moment I realized I knew nothing about him
Xavier was broken.
And
Zion was confused.
"Xavier" I whispered trying to take a hold of his hands but he backed away before I could.
"Limah Lock the door" Xavier said with a blank look on his face.
"But" I tried saying he cut me off quickly
"If you don't lock that door right now"
"I'm leaving and never coming back" he added looking at me dead serious in the eyes.
I didn't know why but I didn't want to lock the door, Zion was out there confused and alone.
I was interrupted from my thoughts when I heard Zion calling my name.
"Limah what's going on" Zion asked looking at me.
"Limah" I heard xavier say from behind me.
"If you don't lock that door right now"
But was interrupted by Zion himself.
"Xavier" he said slowly,
"Don't you dare say my name" xavier replied with venom dripping from each words.
I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared.
"I need an explanation for this"
"How are you still alive" Zion continued ignoring xavier deadly gaze
"I don't owe you any explanation" xavier said to him
"Limah" Zion said this time looking at me
"Please explain to me was going on" he said in a pleading tone.
I turned to xavier for help, but he didn't even spare me a glance.
"Zion" I said slowly
"This is Xavier's ghost" I said to him the words I was still finding hard to believe.
"No no no no no" I heard Zion saying.
"Ghost don't exist" he added looking more confused than ever.
"This is a prank right" he mumbled looking at me.
"You doing this make me feel worse, I thought you said I could confined in you" Zion added looking at me with a pained expression.
"Seriously you think this is a prank"
"How can I bring a dead person back to life" I added.
"But how can I see him" Zion asked again.
"I also don't know" I said honestly.
I turned to look at xavier, but he was also confused.
"I need to go" I heard xavier say.
Before I could process his words Zion walked passed me so fast.
And quickly grabbed a hold on xavier hands.
"No" I heard xavier gasped.
"Limah I can feel his touch too"xavier whispered looking so shocked.
Xavier immediately removed his hands from Zion's and disappeared
Zion just stood there staring at his hands with tears falling down his face.
"I'm so confused"Zion whispered weakly.
And I immediately walked over and hugged him.
And with Just that one action.
He broke down
Crying
Crying harder than I have ever seen him do.
I also didn't know when I also started crying too
With just one thought on my mind
Would xavier ever come back again.
************
Zion sat down on the bare floor.
Looking so exhausted and small all of a sudden.
"Zion" I called out his name.
But he just kept staring at the place xavier stood before he left.
"I saw him disappear" he said with an unbelievable expression on his face
"Limah can I have some water please" Zion asked looking at me for the first time since xavier left.
"Of course" I said while going to the kitchen to get a glass of water.
When I returned back to the living room he wasn't there anymore.
Oh God no
I thought to myself
I ran outside to see his car wasn't there anymore.
Which only means one thing
Zion left.
And that doesn't sound good.
The state he is right now I hope nothing happens to him.
I never even thought or expected that a day like this would ever happen, but how can Zion also see xavier.
I never even ever imagined my life would be like this.
I got to see a ghost.
I fell for him.
And
I also lost him.
I was intterupted from my thought by a knocking sound coming from the door.
I opened the door only to come face to face with the last person I was expecting to see.
"Dad" i said with a frown.
"Limah" my dad said with a sigh trying to approach me.
I quickly moved back before he could even take a hold of my hands.
Hurt flashed through his eyes, but was quickly replaced with a sinister smile.
I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared right now.
My dad keeps getting weirder.
"Limah be a good girl and come give daddy a hug" my dad said looking at me dead serious in the eyes.
I didn't even get the time to decide, my dad hurriedly approached me pulling me into his arms crushing me with his arms.
"Daddy really missed you" my he whispered hugging me tighter
I forcefully pulled away from him when he started squeezing me.
"That's enough dad"
"I would be going to my room now" I added.
But my dad pulled me back before I could leave.
"Not so fast limah"
"We didn't get to have our father and daughter day remember" he asked looking at me creepily
"My beautiful baby girl you remind me so much of you mother"
"Too bad she had to die" my dad continued
This is not my dad, I thought to myself with tears already falling from my eyes.
"Baby don't cry" my dad whispered trying to wipe my tears
But I quickly slapped his hands away before they could come in contact with my face.
"Limahhh" my dad shouted looking at me with anger in his eyes.
"You would regret why you just did that" my dad added laughing in the most sinister way I could ever imagine.
And at that moment I knew this was my cue to leave.
I hurriedly ran towards the door but was pulled back by a grip on my hair.
"Where do you thinking you going huh" my Dad shouted pulling harder on my hair.
I needed to act fast I thought to myself, I kicked him so hard in his balls and made a run towards the door.
"Limah you gonna regret this" I heard my dad say evidence of pain could be heard in his vioce.
But that didn't stop me
I ran
I didn't know were I was going to, but I kept running.
I ran away from the monster
I always regarded as my dad.
