Wait Till Helen Comes Page #2

---

about a missing

girl at the store.

I asked the guy and he

said they never found her.

Mom's right.

You should give

this place a chance.

I'm going to bed.

Stop worrying about dead people.

Molly!

Molly!

Over here!

Over here.

Come this way.

This way!

Helen?

Where are you, my

little butterfly?

You kids come

straight home after school,

- all right?

- Thanks.

You moved

here from Baltimore?

Yes.

Here to

your old church.

Right.

Yeah.

And you're gonna renovate it.

If I understand correctly,

you are a writer?

Yeah.

What do you write?

Fiction.

Fiction, novels.

How's that going?

Kind of hard to

talk to anyone about anything

when no one believes you.

Am I hearing voices

now like dad?

I saw a little girl in my dream.

It's more than just visions now.

I feel it, and it scares me.

I feel like something

is watching us out here.

Seems to be everywhere,

around the house,

the woods, the wind.

I think Heather feels it too.

You can come out.

I'm not gonna hurt you.

Don't be afraid.

I brought you some flowers.

Kitty was right in the

middle of the action.

Do you want to

come to my house and play?

You won't have to

be alone anymore.

Don't worry.

I'll be your friend.

I'll be your best

friend forever.

Don't make a big

deal out of it.

She probably just has

an imaginary friend.

No, I saw something.

I'm not crazy.

She was staring at it and then

she turned and looked at me,

as if whatever it was

told her I was there.

Molly, please.

I know what you're thinking.

I'm thinking I should've

taken a bigger piece of pie.

Look, I'm not making this up.

I'm not like dad.

I didn't say that.

You're thinking it.

Maybe this...

Whoa.

What are you talking about?

What are you talking about?

Nothing!

Dave should get you

one of those collars

with a bell on it.

Heather!

Come with me.

Where are we going?

Heather!

Heather, what's going on?

Come on,

don't let her stop you.

Heather, stop screaming.

Heather, stop!

Stop screaming!

Heather, stop!

What's going on?

What happened?

I don't know!

It sounds like she

was just sleepwalking.

Kids do that sometimes

and they wake up,

they have no idea

where they are.

What's going on?

I've never seen her like this.

She was obviously

sleepwalking.

I tried to wake her up.

What happened?

Came in, she was

talking to someone.

I turned and there

was something outside.

Jesus, did you put this

idea in Heather's head?

No!

What is wrong with you, Molly?

What does this

have to do with me?

I don't know, you tell me.

You think it's normal to be up

in the middle of

the night with her?

What were you doing, Molly?

Stop!

Just leave Heather alone.
