The park was always quiet and peacefull after 8 in the evening.

It was truely beautiful. The lawns seemed to stretch for miles. There was i small maze to the one side and a play area on the opposite side.

There were trees here and there but not to many.

In my opinion it was completey perfect.

I could always lose myself here. No interuptaations. A slight breeze ever now and then.

The only sound was the swing i was currently occupying.

I found myself talking to Hayden as if she was really there.

' I totally failed the English test today. How is that even possible.i mean come on i speak the language. Wartface said i didn't give enough content. What the Fuck. I mean seriously- how much is there to be said about a guy who masterbates on a horse. Schaffer was seriously sick even writing that crap.' I monologue to the swing next to me. Never in a million years did i think it was actually going to reply.

'Peter Schaffer's play is more about Dysart than what it is about Allen'

No the swing hadn't actually spoken- it was the little girl sitting there that had.

She looked about 8 or 9. Her hair was bleach white, naturally not dyed, Her eyes were evervesent blue and looked like they saw far more than you wanted them to.

'Ex...excuse me????' I was shoked to say the least.

What kind of parent let a child that young out alone. Wait! What kind of parent let their child read something like Equus????

' I was pointing out A key point in the story.'

'huh' was my genious responce

'shouldnt you be at home little girl?'

'Shouldnt you Thomas?'

'Wha...how did..name...who...ummm...I don't have a curfew.' What the hell!

How did she know my name?

Who was she?

Why was i being so ridiculous. I was getting freaked out by some little kid. I had lived her my whole l;ife and she probably knew about the accident thats how she knew my name. Yaeh. I had nothing to be so freaked out about. I was seriously losing it.

Where was my sanity when i needed it? Oh yeah. Lying in a coma at the hospital.

I sighed.

She laughed.

'And what pray tell is so fucking hilarious?'

' You are Thomas Scott. I have never met anyone who so freely shows their emotins. No need to be scared by the way. I don't plan on hurting you. I plan to give you exactally what you've been asking for for the lat three weeks.'

'What are you?' i asked watching the little turn into a women right infront of me. She was beautiful. But she had nothing on Hayden.

' Knowing what i am will not help you in anyway so what is the point in know? You can just call me Sophie.'

'okay then Sophie, what makes you think you know and cann give me what i want?'

' Its simple. You sign away your soul and i give you the opportunity to redo three things in your life. Change them into what you want them to be. And i will through in 2 wishes for luck.'

'yeah right. Where are the camera's? This isn't some movie lady and I'm not in the mood for petty games.'

'if you don't believe me accept and test it. If it doesn't work what will you have lost?'

I sighed and turned to leave.

'Tell me what more do you have to lose if you've already lost everything you ever cared about?'

-*-

Her words rang in my head over and over again as i walked home. Was she telling the truth?

Did i have the Heart to risk if she was lying.

As i climbed into bed my last thought before falling asleep were What would Hayden do?
