Category:  Fantasy


A gifted school teacher discovers he sees people no one else can see and soon becomes aware that he is walking between two different worlds where reality and mystery meet . Life for him is like watching a picture show inside his head

Time means nothing to him . His adventures are like a bird in free flight and he watches from afar at people and places unseen by everyone .

His life and his gift to see strange apparitions have set him aside from everyone and everything

Charlie Fingerton lived with his mother and liked to be in his own company because he was different to most people.
He saw and heard unseen people in a secret world that one knew of .
He never told anyone about this world until he met Margaret , a nurse who came into his life by chance one day .
He had never thought that he would meet someone he could trust to tell everything that he knew .
His life of isolation came to an end and he was glad that he wasn’t alone anymore .


Excerpt

The long night slowly passed to the silence of the morning light, and he lay there in bed looking up at the ceiling. The silence was broken by a knock on the bedroom door,
‘Time to get up son or you’ll be late for school “:
She said,
“I don’t want to go to school today.
He replied
“I know that son, but you are the teacher and it’s your first day with a new class so remember the children depend on you to be there to teach them “
His mother replied.
“Ok then, I guess you’re right “
He said and he slowly sat up.
“Your breakfast is on the table waiting and I made you some sandwiches and there’s coffee in your flask for you to bring to school. I’ll see you later on today. I have an appointment now and need to rush off. Have a good day “

Thanks Mum “
He replied as he got dressed and ready to go to work.
He ate breakfast and grabbed his lunch and car keys and closed the door behind him,
He started the old car and made his way up the hill to the traffic lights where he rode the clutch on the hill in first gear and waited for the moment when the lights would turn green. He was soon off again on his way to Garden Street Primary school as the rain began to fall softly to the ground .
His old wipers bales needed replaced and so the kind of screeched to and fro on the windscreen in their feeble effort to wipe away the rain drops .
He drove through the school gates and parked his car in the teacher’s carpark and then signed on the register before making his way into the classroom .
As he walked along the corridor a child he had once taught greeted him ,
“Good morning, Mr Fingerton ‘
“Good morning, Johnny “ He replied.
One of the other teacher’s also greeted him.
Good morning, Mr Fingerton“
Good morning, Miss Jenny ’ he said .

Mr Fingerton opened up the door of his classroom and waited for all the new pupils to arrive at the classroom . As they arrived, they sat at their usual places . Then as they settled, he said ,
“Good morning class . I don’t know you all yet but my name is Mr Fingerton”.
All the children replied together in one voice .

“Good morning, Mr Fingerton .”

He started to think to himself .“What Can I teach them today“
