The Third Floor

“Ahhh Melody, you’re back, with a friend?â€? He asked

“Uhh yeah this is Owenâ€? She replied.

Mr. Greyhem was one of the very few people who knew who she really was. He was the father of her best friend Leah. Melody had known Leah her whole life. They met at about the age of five after she was taken in by Elinor Kirke, a wealthy old woman who was very kind but very strict. Leah knew about Melody’s powers, as did Mr. Greyhem.

Melody walked up to the counter and spoke quietly to Mr. Greyhem. “He was being chased by two thugs.” She lowered her voice. ”...He can be invisible and stuff too.â€?

Mr. Greyhem eyed Owen. ”...Oh really?” And then turning toward Owen he held out a hand. “I’m not sure we’ve met, Owen, I’m Adam Greyhem.â€?

“Well you already know my nameâ€? Owen replied cheerily, shaking Mr. Greyhem’s hand.

“I’m gonna go show him my room,â€? Melody said quickly, as she and Owen walked to the elevator. Her room was on the third floor.
