Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband-Chapter 415: A closed Chapter for Maureen
On the morning of the following day, the sky was overcast, casting a somber, grey hue over everything. The heavy clouds hung low, as if mourning for the dead Gwyneth whose burial Phoebe and the rest of the family would soon head to.
Phoebe was still stuck in bed, looking at the clouds through Yin’s eyes. The raven was perched on the sill of the wide-open window.
The Saxon spirit floated closer and waved a hand, removing the bed covers, opening Phoebe up to the cold air which woke her up completely. "Good morning, Phoebe. Are you ready for another funeral?"
Phoebe sighed, "You are too cheerful for someone heading to a funeral. Is there good news? You know what, don’t answer that, I had forgotten that funerals actually entertain you." She got up unwillingly and flew to the bathroom, now that she had to ability to fly in the air, she found that she enjoyed it more than walking on the ground.
The spirit followed her to the bathroom, she took a quick shower and immediately dressed up. As always, she donned an expensive short black dress, and boots because of the weather.
"A fifty-thousand-dollar dress to a funeral, you my dear know how to live." The spirit commented.
Phoebe admired herself in the mirror, admiring her look.
"It was worth it, just as all my other funeral dresses."
"No hat today?" It asked.
Phoebe picked up the sleeper’s hat on the vanity table. "I am going as the resident witch." She put the hat on and beamed proudly.
"You just love to make an entrance." The spirit chuckled. Experience tales at novelbuddy
"I attend more than fifty funerals a year, I have to find some joy in it and being over dressed and late is how I stay sane. Instead of people discussing the freaky shaman, they discuss my inappropriate outfits." Phoebe shrugged.
Sylvester came in with a glass of an elixir from the space. "This is a magical elixir for pregnant women, it has a pure water collected under the light of a full moon, lavender, rosemary, two drops of unicorn tears and a pinch of star dust, all are products for the space, now drink up it will be good for the niece or nephew." He placed it on a bedside drawer.
Phoebe pinched her nose because she was afraid that the taste would be disgusting, when she tasted it however, it was familiar to milk which made her relieved.
"Where is Connie?" Phoebe asked, the last drop of the elixir fell into her mouth.
A low chuckle rumbled from Sylvester’s chest. "In the space, enjoying all the amenities that it can offer. I don’t think we can pull her away from the forest and the cave under the waterfall where she is annoying the creatures which dwell there. If you want to see an angry unicorn you can head inside the space now."
Phoebe chuckled, she could only imagine what the teenage ghost was up to. Either she was chatting too loudly, asking too many questions or trying to ride the unicorn.
"I own a unicorn!" Phoebe sighed.
She experienced another moment which made her want to question how this was now her life. She had gone from helping ghosts move on to owning a forest with otherworldly creatures.
She left the bedroom and headed downstairs to the dining room, where most of the family was gathered around the table. Her eyes lit up on seeing David, he was sitting in between her mother and aunt.
Both women were laughing, hanging on to his words which made Phoebe roll her eyes.
[Tsk, tsk, look and my mom and aunt, they are like teenage girls in love. Mom, dad will kick my boyfriend out if you treat him so well. I should have come down early and sat next to him so that I can charge before the funeral. I just know there will be ghosts there needing favors.]

She pulled out a chair to sit next to her brothers and looked around with a smile. "Good morning, everyone, I would say it’s a lovely day, but it is gloomy out there. Perfect funeral weather in my opinion."
Nobody laughed at her joke, they were busy trying to analyze what they had just read. Phoebe’s thoughts were like difficult jigsaw puzzles that were too hard to piece together. What did she mean by charge and what did David have anything to do with it.
Some like her grandmother automatically thought that she wanted to have sex with him which was weird because they were at the dining table, and it was inappropriate.
Her father loudly cleared his throat. "Pheebs, you came home late last night, you must have worked so hard at the research labs."
Edward’s eyes laid accusation at David whom he was looking at deliberately.
Phoebe was absentminded as she was picking out what she wanted to eat for breakfast, so when she responded it was without thought,
"Research labs, what lab?" Phoebe’s mind was so scattered that her face had a blank expression, forgetting that it was she that told her parents that she was going to David’s research labs.
David on the other hand changed seats with Luke and moved closer to Phoebe. The moment he sat he took hold of her hand, he knew what she meant by wanting to charge. He had pieced some things together on his own and also asked his grandfather a couple of questions which cemented his theory.
He watched in awe as waves of what looked like light funneled out of him and went into her. It is exactly what I thought, he laughed softly in disbelief. According to his grandfather, it was likely that Phoebe had a yin body while he had a yang body, they had a symbiotic relationship, exchanging energy to support and sustain each other.
Her yin body was siphoning energy from his yang body, using it to enhance her powers and abilities. She had really kept many secrets from him, but he was not so angry, back then she did not have any reason to trust him with those secrets.
While the couple exchanged shy glances, Edward watched them like a hawk. Jennie knew that her husband wanted to taunt the children, so she changed seats too and moved closer to her husband.
"Oh honey, let the children be, Phoebe must have changed her mind about going to the research labs and went on a date with David instead. They are young and crazy about each other, let them enjoy their youthful love." She tapped his hand.
Edward cracked a few knuckles of his hand, no matter how he looked at it, Phoebe was a little girl who was not ready for adult activities. What if she got pregnant, she was still a baby?
Collin strolled in with a small glass box that looked like a large frozen ice cube, inside was a sunflower. "Good morning, everyone."
"Whoa! That must be for Shanna, I never took you to be the romantic type my brother." Andre teased and laughed.
Grandma Mayfair clapped once. "Oh, it is that type of the season again, it is raining Sunflowers. Maureen, I hope that you are going to receive one from Mr. Alton." Her statement was more of a question.
Maureen looked physically sick at the suggestion; her face turned a little pale. "Never!" she loudly burst up in opposition. "No thank you mother, Alton Boyd will never see me ever again. That chapter is closed forever. Now, let us go for the funeral." Maureen shattered her mother’s hope into a thousand glass pieces.
