I Will Follow You Into the Dark Page #2

Look at my eyes.

How's your balance?

Are you messing with me?

- Come on.

- You deserved it.

- I was about to call an ambulance.

- Come on.

- You were about to faint.

- You look a lot meaner than you look.

You shouldn't tackle helpless

woman on the street.

I guess not.

It was valiant of you though.

Try to cure my blindness.

Can I walk you and make sure

you get where you're going?

I mean, I did save your eyesight.

Kind of a hero... If you want

to get technical about it.

Okay.

But I need you to maintain

a 3 foot perimeter.

- Okay. That's fair.

- Okay.

I can do that.

Safety zone right here.

- Wow, you really coming out of the corner.

- I hurt you, didn't I?

I run fast.

So, this is my building up here.

- Wow.

- Yes, very impressive.

That would be the little tour

group that's always there.

For what?

It's one of the city's oldest

building. It's like...

A spooky haunted thing.

That's comforting.

I guess it's kind of big

with the paranormal crowd.

You think they tell you something

like that, before you moved in.

I wouldn't.

Well, not that I...

Buy into that stuff.

You're creeped out by it, but you don't

believe in it. How exactly does that work?

Well, I think...

You grow up with an idea and it

kind of becomes engrained in you.

I bet if you go on

this tour with me...

You wouldn't be freaked out.

Look at you. You're freaked out.

Come on.

It's gonna be fun. We can make fun on

how ridiculous the whole thing is.

Maybe another time.

The thing is, I might

like you a little bit.

And if we are gonna go out,

just for me...

I think I need to know a

little bit more about you.

Like maybe you could tell me...

Something else you're afraid of.

- I never said we were going out.

- I think you did, didn't you?

Maybe it was me.

Come on, humor me.

Tell me something.

You first.

Okay.

I'm afraid of missing the boat.

If I see something right

in front of me and...

My gut says go after it, then...

I go.

Gets me in trouble sometimes.

- And that's why you're a hero.

- See, you get me already.

Your turn.

I'm afraid of heights.

Like deathly afraid.

It's weird.

Everybody's afraid.

That's not weird.

Mine borders on extreme...

I've always been a bit

of an over achiever.

My car's just up here, but...

Thanks for the walk.

And, for restoring my vision.

You're gonna let me

do this by myself?

I gotta sleep up there.

Hey, I'm sure you'll be fine,

big boy.

Well, maybe I'll get

to run into you again...

I'll walk...

Don't want to injure you.

I know you think I'm crazy.

But it is possible, you know.

I mean something that profound

could actually happen.

There is a certain mystique to

the halls of the Weldon Tower.

This hall is registered with estates

that are official haunted landmarks.

With the history of more paranormal

sightings than any other on record.

Follow me.

- You're alright there, tiger?

- Yeah.

Dating back to the turn

of the 20th century...

This was all a state run of hospital

where hundreds of people died.

It would appear for about 25 years.

Then, in the 40's they shut

it down for about a decade...

Before converted the rooms

to apartment units.

Many tenants have reported seeing

apparition over the years.

Figures, shoveling above the halls.

I'm definitely not

coming up, by the way.

There are several cases where patients

reported their personal belongings missing...

Of the course of a few days,

and soon after...

The patients themselves

would go missing.

You better hang on to your purse.

Now, couple of wardens found a chest full

of the patients' missing belongings.

Stashed in various places, but...

No trace of the patients.

And back in 1972...

A renovation crew worker reported

several of his belongings missing...

And soon he too went missing.

Into my knowledge...

He hasn't been found.

Check this out.

- Shouldn't we get back?

- No, come on, are you kidding?

Hey, we can get in trouble.

This place is old.

Yeah, like you.

Oh wow.

Creepy kitchen.

- Yeah.

- Smells like bacon.

Hey, real quick thing. Smile.

- That's... I wasn't ready.

- I nailed it.

- Alright.

- It's good.

Horrible, hang on I have a camera.

- Alright, here we go.

- You look like an alien.

Wow, you are a professional.

- Oh...

- I'm not ready.

- Oh no. Wow.

- Not sexy.

- Alright one more, one more try.

- That's amazing.

- This is the one.

- Ready?

Yeah, this is the one.

I'll just...

That was...

We thought we lost you guys.

Sorry.

See you guys later.

Wow. You guys are really serious.

Yeah, my dad signed me

up when I was younger.

- I used to hate doing this.

- No, you're good.

Well, I love it now.

Can I show you something?

Can you get out of here?

Can I shower first?

No, I don't want you to miss it.

- What are we waiting for?

- You'll see.

Nice tights, by the way.

Come here.

Isn't this kind of a bad idea?

You do this a lot?

It's a great idea.

You know I'm deathly

afraid of heights, right?

I know.

Okay, no no...

No, no...

I think this is a bad idea.

- You'll like it.

- No, I'm terrified about this.

Stop it. Oh my God.

- No!

- I promise you, it's gonna be worth it.

- Please... What are we looking for?

- Come here.

Come on.

Wow.

- Hey.

- Yo.

You read?

Yes, Sophia. I read.

Oh wow.

- He is handsome.

- Stop.

No, I love how I spend my nights

searching for the perfect partner...

And you get run over

by them on the street.

What's going on with this one?

Must be the flash.

So, when are you and this

sprinter seeing each other again?

He called me a couple of days ago,

I didn't call him back.

What do you mean?

You're not into it?

I just want to keep it simple.

Seems like maybe that's

not an option with him.

Oh, because he isn't capable...

Or you aren't?

You...

Wow... So you're that girl now.

Good for you,

if you're lucky this way...

He can disappear and you

can be alone some more.

Funny.

You're an ass, you know that?

No, I'm serious.

Happiness is not allowed in here.

- You know that?

- I'm not listening.

Hey, I just want to throw

this out there one last time.

I know you're a little

jumpy and I get it but...

I don't know,

I thought we had fun.

I did anyway, so...

I was actually thinking to

skydiving this weekend...

I know you're into that sort of thing,

so I figured maybe you'd want to...

Jump out of an airplane with me.

Anyway, just give me a favor

and shoot me a quick text.

So I at least know you're okay.

If you're not into hanging

out again, it's all good.

You know? I get it.

Hello?

Hey!

Don't tell me I scared you.

You're messing with me

right now, seriously?

No, I'm on my way home.

I'm stuffing at

Penny's tonight so...

If you and prince charming want

the place, it's all yours.

I never called him back.

2 weeks?

And you never called him back?

Oh my word, you are

turning to the ice queen.

I'm awful, aren't I?

Yes.

- Yes you are.

- Yeah, alright.

- Good talk.

- Good talk.
