The Impossible

Mr. Jones shrugged. “I don’t know, but I believe so. Besides, I’m beginning to feel the pull from the light even stronger now than before. It’s time.”


Mr. Jones grinned at Dion as he held Alicia’s hand. “Goodbye, Dion. Thank you for everything.”


Dion smiled. “You’re welcome. Have a safe trip.”

In the next instant, Dion was slightly overwhelmed with a bittersweet sensation as he remained on the same spot. He always felt that every time one of the spirits crossed over to the other side. On one hand, he missed the spirits’ company. On the other hand, he was relieved that the spirits had moved on. He continued standing there for a few seconds longer before making his way back to the room where Mrs. Donahue’s body was. He had a job to do. This wasn’t his first farewell, and it wouldn’t be the last one. He was certain of it.2
