Johnny And The Dead
Chapter I
Johnny never knew for certain why he started seeing the dead.
The Alderman said it was probably because he was too lazy not to.
Most people's minds don't let them see things that might upset them, he said. The Alderman said he should know if anyone did, because he'd spent his whole life (1822-1906) not seeing things.
Wobbler Johnson, who was technically Johnny's best friend, said it was because he was mental.
But Yo-less, who read medical books, said it was probably because he couldn't focus his mind like normal people. Normal people just ignored almost everything that was going on around them, so that they could concentrate on important things like, well, getting up, going to the lavatory and getting on with their lives. Whereas Johnny just opened his eyes in the morning and the whole universe hit him in the face.
Wobbler said this sounded like 'mental' to him.
Whatever it was called...
