"Hello?" The woman says again since I've yet to say anything

"Uh hi" really Jess that's what you say

"Can I help you?" She says she's sounds nice

"Is this Lucy Marin?" I ask her

"Yes this is she"

"Was your name Lucy Parker?"

I hear her breath hitch "who is this?"

"This is Jess Taylor. I'm writing a paper" I tell her

"I can't help you" I think she's about to hang up

"Wait please. I live in your old house and I'm supposed to write a story and I wanted to write a story about what really happened there so maybe everyone will stop making stories up that aren't true" I say in a rush before she can hang up on me

She's quiet but I don't think she's hang up yet.

"Are you still there?" I ask hoping she is

"Yes I am. okay but you will have to come to me I-i can't be in that house" she says I can hear her voice break

"Okay thank you" I tell her

She tells me her address and what day and time to come over

I just hope Luke doesn't hate me for this.
