Mary and Tansey sat in the back of the car, outside the house and under one of the trees. “Don’t forget your seat belt,” said Mary. “What’s a seat belt?” Tansey asked. Mary showed her the belt, and how to put it on. “Now,” Tansey asked, “does a ghost really need a seat belt?” But she clicked the belt buckle into place. Mary watched, half expecting the belt to go right through Tansey’s body. But it didn’t. It went across her chest and lap. “You’re kind of solid already,” she said. “I am,” said Tansey. “That’ll be all the spuds I ate when I was a young one. But, d’you know what?” she said, as Scarlett started the car—and the light inside the car went off. “I’ve never been in a car before.” “No way,” said Mary. Tansey was even clearer in the dark. Everything about her looked real and alive. “It’s true,” she said. “There were very few cars back in my day. And they were all black.” Scarlett turned onto the main road to the hospital.
