She must be hallucinating cause Zara just heard a voice. 'Hey, are you dead? He-hey. Are you? Are you? Hey are you? Dead? Dead...dead...dead.' As it echoed through her ears as if they were real. It was a soft voice, almost angel-like in her hearing. And just as suddenly someone poked Zara, her cheek to be specific. This time, she was sure she wasn't hallucinating anymore cause dreams certainly COULD NOT BE FELT.
Her eyes twitched as her mind tried to figure this out and at the same time, it tried to push the thought away, not wanting sleep to be cut short. Finally, the pieces were put together and her mind was working once more. Opening her eyes suddenly, Zara realized she was still at the Observatory as she could still see the bright stars surrounding the moon that shone directly through her eyes. 'Oh crud, I must've fallen asleep,' she thought lazily to herself as she yawned once more and stretched with eyes closed while still lying down.
Getting back to her old self, Zara opened her eyes once more and saw a girl curiously looking at her who was almost just beside her. And on instinct, she sat up straight in a sudden move in shock and got up to her feet as Zara let out a surprised gasp.
"
Heeeyyyy ..." She whispered as she continuously poked the girl's cheek. Why was this girl not waking up ? Was she really dead ? She can't be, right ? Besides, the girl's cheek was not cold. It was warm, a good warm .. That warmth she would feel long ago when she still had Bambi, that warmth when she held her sister close to her.
So, this girl couldn't be dead ! Not a chance .. Just then, the girl stirred. With that, Beezus backed away slowly. Then the girl opened her eyes, yawned and even stretched.
That, dead ? Nope. The girl was just asleep Beezus. And you obviously woke her. Get ready for the yells and shouts when she sees you, you dimwit. Her mind was basically making up things inside her head. Telling her to expect the worse things to happen. Oh, she was ready for it. But...she suddenly gasped! The girl gasped and looked at her with a surprised look.
What ? I'm not a ghost. "So you're not dead after all." She said, crossing her arms.
