Yes of course you can go, but not until after the funeral,
she stopped suddenly, funeral?! Who had died? Rachel took a deep breath and continued reading,
your mother has died. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner, but I felt it best. The funeral is in the next holidays so that you can be there, I'm so sorry that you didn't get to say goodbye, but I read her every one of your letters. She was on a drip in hospital, and then we decided to turn it off as she was in so much pain. When we all have recovered, then your friends can come over,
Love you lots,
Dad xxx
There was a smuge over the words, but Rachel could read it all the same. Rachel burst in to a flow of silent tears, she dropped the letter and began to sob on to her pillow, the worst thing was, that her father had not told her sooner, and that they turned of the machiene too! Rachel fell in to a sleep crying.
Presley slowly woke, to find herself on the floor of all places. Why was she there? Oh, right, yoga. She must have fallen asleep. Before she got around to wondering why she'd wooken up, Pres headr crying from the bed next to her. Rachel?
Rachel?" she asked blearily.
"What's wrong?" Perhaps her mum was worse...or maybe she'd been told she couldn't go with Luna and Presley. Now that she thought about it, Presley really ought to invite the two of them to her place. They'd gone to the bahamas with her family, but had never been to Presley's house. Rachel was asleep, crying.
"Rach!" Presley said a little louder.
"Bad dream?"
