Behind it All
They started their way up the steep hill where Linda’s incredible mansion sat on the highest point. There was a long way to go, and Linda’s heart rate increased by the second. Something, more like anything, anything unlucky and unfortunate was going to happen. It was like a gift Linda had since she was baby. Besides her stunning looks and athletic ability, she was always able to sense when bad things were going to happen. She couldn’t predict the future and she could only tell when bad things were going to immediately happen. Like two years ago on a Saturday afternoon, Linda was swimming at her best friend Kathy’s pool. In the midst of all the fun and games, Linda got out of the pool and broke down on a lounge chair. She knew something awful was about to happen and when she got home that day, she found out her mother had died of a heart attack. Since that day on, she knew she was some kind of psychic. She left all the others to ponder upon her unpredictable moodiness and that was the way it would always be.
