back garden. The tracksuit man was in the passage his voice bouncing off bricks Youre dead you mother Fucks. Youre dead. We went right through the garden and I felt bad with Dads Ghost watching but I didnt want to get caught and the man was in the garden as well getting closer and there was a wall at the back of the garden and we trod over the flowers which were roses and Ross and Gary were over the wall in one second and I was two seconds because my foot was stuck and Dads Ghost said Quick Philip quick. I ran through another garden with the man still behind and Dads Ghost was flying in front and pointing to the gate Ross and Gary had just gone through and I went through it and out on the street. I didnt know where Ross and Gary were they were gone because they were faster than me and Dads Ghost said The park! so I crossed over the road nearly got run over beeep! and got into the park and ran following Dads flying Ghost. But halfway through the park by the trees the man got me got my back and pulled me and I said Dad! The man grabbed my neck and pushed me against the tree and said You think its funny now do you? I said No. And Dads Ghost said Get off him! But the man couldnt hear Dads Ghost. The man had an eye half closed like it wanted to go to sleep and he said I could squeeze the life out of you like squeezing fucking toothpaste. Dads Ghost was at our side looking at the man and he said I know him Philip I know him. I looked at Dads Ghost wanting him to do something but he just kept talking. He said He works for Alan. He works for him. Its one of the BASTARDS who smashed the Pub. I kept looking at Dads Ghost and the man turned to see but couldnt see him and said What the fuck are you looking at? Dads Ghost said Whats his name? Whats his name? Whats his name? Whats his name? Terry thats it! Hes called Terry. Philip say Terry. Say Terry Philip. I had heard of Terry before because Uncle Alan went fishing with him and Mr Fairview. I said Terry. It came out as a cough because his hand was too tight on my neck. His hand let go a bit and he said What? I said Terry. Dads Ghost said Tell him you know who he is. I said I know who you are. Terry said Oh you do do you you cunt? Dads Ghost said Say he works for Alan. I said You work for Alan. Dads Ghost said Tell him he smashed the Pub. I said You smashed the Pub. One of Terrys eyes went wide but the other one stayed nearly asleep. Terry said What you on about dipshit? Dads Ghost said Tell him where you live. I said I live at the Castle. I live with Alan. Dads Ghost said Tell him youre Brians boy. I said Im Brians boy. Terrys hand came off my neck quick when I said that like my neck was too hot like an oven. And Terry said Brians boy. But he said it quiet like to himself and he rubbed his hand on his tracksuit. Dads Ghost leant over and whispered in Terrys ear Now go. And Sleepy Eye Terry went and I watched him leave the park with my back still against the tree and my tie still round my head and then I turned to Dads Ghost and said Thanks. But Dads Ghost was gone. I looked round the park and I could see other ghosts. There was a woman in a black dress holding a candle and a man hanging in a tree and a gold colour dog with blood on his chest and there were lots of ghosts all over but I closed my eyes and opened them again and they were gone like Dad.
PrayStation When I got back my heart was still beating fast and I was thinking about Sleepy Eye Terrys hand round my neck in the park but then Mums voice from the Living Room said Philip. I said What? She said Come here. So I went to the Living Room. When I got there there was a big box on the table and it was in a Dixons bag and Mum was nodding to it. Uncle Alan was looking at me and I said Whats that? Mum was smiling with her chin back in her neck and she said Its for you. From Uncle Alan. Its why he was a bit late back. Its what youve wanted. And Uncle Alan said Something to cheer you up.
