What did you see out there? the doctor asked. You must have seen something. Yes? Think about it.

No. Nothing. Just a field in the dark. Felt the wind at my back. Maybe they were old ghosts, he laughed.

Do you believe in ghosts? he shook his head. It’s OK if you do. Most people have a belief in the supernatural.

Do you?

That’s not the point. We are talking about you.

You said most people.

Right. I won’t discuss my beliefs. Wouldn’t be professional.This discussion is about you.

Me?

Yes. And what happened.

What did happen?

You were found in the woods. A body was found two miles from there in a field.

That so?

A woman’s body. She had on a wedding ring.

Till death do we part, the psychiatrist nodded.

Is that a vow you took?

Everyone does. Ritual.

Right. Are you apart now?

That field. I ran from it. Couldn’t stop running. Like something was chasing me. Isn’t that the damndest thing? the older man nodded his head. We were talking about ghosts.

Yes.

You don’t believe?

No.

Gotcha.
