Ghostman (40 page)

It can be difficult. I feel like I’m haunted, or maybe like I’m a ghost. The feeling fades, but never quickly. The light cracks in through my window and illuminates my books. I take a breath, let it out and give it one more try.

My mother gave me only two things: my life and a name.

I hope one day it will feel right.

I hope one day I can be her Baby Boy.
