Here I am!!! LOL... Sorry for the delay. Santa Claus stopped by to ask me some questions. He is a riot... Jolly ol' guy that he is.
Okay... Here..we...GO!
Dimera Mansion – EJ’s Bedroom
EJ is sitting up in bed staring blankly at the cloaked figure before him, not recognizing the voice, but upon seeing the ghosts face, he is amazed this is who would be his Ghost of Christmas Past…
EJ: Why you? You don’t really know me…or that I even existed when you were alive.
Ghost: No…but it was decided by Another that I would be the best choice to come show you the past.
EJ: The past? Bloody hell. I remember the past all too well chum!
Ghost: Maybe. Maybe not. There are things that you probably chose NOT to think about…or remember.
EJ: Why should I even care?
Ghost: Didn’t Andre explain that to you? Or were you too busy counting your money and scheming to get even with someone? Oh… sorry. YOU have no one in your life to get even with anymore! Maybe that should be a HINT as to why you should care.
EJ: Rubbish. There are plenty of people…
Ghost: Who? Chris, your servant of whom you have no respect for? Chloe and Philip who see you as a slumlord? Get a grip, EJ. Even you aren’t that dense.
EJ: Whatever. I still don’t understand why you were chosen to visit me…
Ghost: Because, I am the perfect example as to someone involved in yet another Dimera baby switching scandal.
EJ: Excuse me? I did NO baby switching, young man.
Ghost: Oh, no! You did no switching. But your actions got you to where you are today. Now hush, so I can reveal to the readers who I am.
EJ: Sorry.
Ghost: I loved your sister because I thought she was my mother. But that was your father’s doing. Good ol Stefano. But, as true loving people my parents were able to make amends with your sister, Lexi. It worked out so much better for them. Lexi did not become bitter. She and Hope are still great friends. Many are hoping you can learn from what I show you...
EJ: Zack…if you’ve been paying close attention…I’m the Dimera who does not work that way.
Zack Brady: No... You are not like her. You are totally bent on revenge and to the devil what may hurt others. As long as YOU get what you want that’s all that matters, is it not? Hmph. How’s that working for ya, Mr. Dimera?
EJ: Why don’t you just leave me alone?
Zack: Everyone else did, didn't they? Huh. Oh believe me, I wish I could. But I promised my Boss I would do my best to help. Unlike you Elvis, I help people. Even miscreants like you…
To be continued later today…
Which will include Chloe, Philip, Rafe and Sami’s memories.
EJ is taken to the past by Zack and is still being stubborn.
