Janet McNulty - Mellow Summers 07 - Two Ghosts Haunt A Grove - Plot & Excerpts
Relieved to be home, she jumped out of the car and went inside without waiting for me. I couldn’t blame her. It was partly my fault that her morning was a bit more interesting than normal. When we approached our door, Mrs. Dayton waited for us. She was our neighbor who lived a floor below us. About a year ago her dog died and Jackie had baked a cake for her. Actually, Jackie was friendly with everyone in the building, especially Mrs. Dayton. The poor lady lived alone and had no family. She rarely went anywhere. “Mrs. Dayton,” greeted Jackie, warmly. “What are you doing here?” “Oh, well I bought you two a present.” “Oh?” said Jackie. “I didn’t bring it with me. I didn’t know if you two would be home.” “That’s okay,” I said, “We can just pop down in your place.” “Oh, you’re such a dear.” Mrs. Dayton walked down the hall to the stairs while Jackie and I trailed after her. Entering her apartment was almost like going back in time. She had a sewing machine in the corner that dated back to 1945.
