As we escaped the forest, I tried my best to stay calm. Jeada probably needed immediate attention and Zola’s leg was bleeding. Rome had to go to the vet, He will most likely need surgery. I drove to the hospital as fast as possible. When we got there, I got out of the car and opened the car doors, picking up Zola. I had Jeada lean on me as I walked over to the entrance.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAEabQLf0fnU
By the time I got inside, there were people everywhere needing to be looked at but when the nurse saw the conditions of Jeada and Zola, she pressed a button under her desk to call for help. I watched as Jeada and Zola were sent in. I stayed back and checked them in. I had to leave to take Rome to the vet so I gave the hospital my number and left. As I walked back to my car I could see that Rome was awake. I think he’s trying to get out of the car. I opened the driver door and got in. As I drove to the vet, I could see Rome in the back seat panicking. I’m pretty sure he was worried about where Zola was and where I was taking him. I pulled up to an animal hospital. I had to carry Rome in. He was making it difficult but I was expecting that. I opened the door and the vets took Rome. I started talking to the lady behind the desk.
“What happened to your dog?”
“Um…Rome isn’t my dog..”
“Where did you find Rome at?”
“The forest with his owner.”
“Where is his owner?”
“The hospital.”
“What happened?”
“They were being chased and Rome’s owner fell. Then Rome was takin by a beast.”
“I’m so sorry that happened.”
“It’s fine, just help Rome.”
“Ok, I’ll need you to sign here.”
“Alright.”
I signed a paper and then I got a call from the hospital. I picked it up and Jeada was awake. I gave the vet my number and left for the hospital. By the time I got there Jeada and Zola were outside waiting for me. I pulled up and watched them get in.
“Wait, WHERE’S ROME?!” yelled Zola.
“Calm down, I took him to the animal hospital.”
“Oh sorry.”
“It’s fine Zola.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAUu8IK9fgq8
I started for the animal hospital. I walked in with Zola. I had to force her to sit down. The lady came over and started talking, “Is this the owner of Rome?”.
“Yes.”
“Ok, here are the rest of the papers then.”
I grabbed the papers and gave them to Zola. Zola was signing them and writing things down. I had to start the conversation, “Sooooo how are you feeling?”
“I’m scared for Rome.”
“I’m sure he’ll be alright.”
“But what if he ends up dying?”
“Rome won’t die.”
“How would you know?”
“Because he’s your dog. I should check on Jeada.”
“WAIT, WHAT’S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?!”
I left because the conversation was getting uncomfortable and I didn’t think that far ahead. I walked back to the car and Jeada was sitting there. I joined her in the car. We talked a bit. Later I saw Zola come back out. She walked over to the car and got in. “Rome is going to have to stay here until he’s healed.” Zola sounded very upset. “Hey Zola, where do you live?”
“Why?”
“So I can take you home.”
“I live in the Moor District.”
“You live in the city!?”
“Yeah..?”
I sat silently while I drove to the city. But the fact that Zola lived in the city and yet so nice. I guess I just assumed that everyone in the city was rude and snarky, but can you really blame me? I mean in movies that’s how everyone is, except the main character but that’s not the point. I shouldn’t have assumed that in the first place. I always assume things and judge people before I actually get to know them. I just chalk it up to me being antisocial.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAPfrzfY2GWC
I got to the Moor District and dropped off Zola. I was now alone with Jeada, “Soooooo what do you think of Moor?”
“Moor is big.”
“Well yeah it is a city”
“But why does it have to be so big?”
“Because it’s a city, Chrissy.”
“But still, why does it have to be so big?”
“It’s a city, it’s supposed to be large.”
I can’t help but get nervous about cities. It's so big and there’s so many people…I think Jeada is starting to get annoyed with me, but I also keep saying the same thing. Populated places are not my thing but they are the places my friends love being. I’m really tired of driving, it’s giving me a headache.
“Chrissy, are you ok?”
“I’m fine….Why do you ask?”
“You don’t look ok.”
“I always look like a zombie ghost thing.”
“I know but you actually look like you're going to be sick.”
“I’m fine.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAGs1EbtSnLN
I like to say that I’m fine even when I'm not. I hate people having to worry about me, I hate when people ask me if I need help. I don’t need help with anything, I can do things on my own. Jeada still looks concerned about me but I'm not going to let down. I got our house eventually. I looked over at our house. The gray-blue coloring of the wall and the two stories made it large enough for us 6. Jeada, Heather, Harley, Madelyn, Jeffery, and me. I gave three of them nicknames. I parked in the driveway and got out. I had to help Jeada walk up the three stairs. I opened the door and set Jeada down on the couch. I left her there and called up Beth.
‘Hey Chrissy, what’s up?’
‘I need some help with Jeada’
‘What did she do this time?’
I could hear Beth sigh on the other end of the phone.
‘She didn’t do anything bad.’
‘OH! What do you need help with?’
‘Jeada got her back messed up and ended up in the hospital.’
‘HOW?! YOU JUST SAID THAT SHE DIDN’T DO ANYTHING?!’
I can’t tell if Beth is mad or concerned. Or if she is upset with me.
‘I took her camping because she wouldn’t stop talking about it. And then things happen.’
‘But what happened?’
‘Look Beth I just need help ok?’
‘Alright I’ll come over but you better explain what happened.’
‘Good, see you soon.’
I hung up the phone and went back down stairs to Jeada. “Would you like anything to drink or eat?”
“Ummmm milk and I don’t know, something.”
“Alright.”
I leave her alone again and enter the kitchen. It looks the exact same as when I left it. The same stone gray tiled floor and white marble countertop. I opened the fridge and pulled out the milk. I put my foot in the way so the door wouldn’t close all the way and opened the cabinet door. I got a plastic cup and poured the milk into it. I put the milk back into the fridge and let it close. I took the cup to Jeada. “Thank you Chrissy~”, Jeada was talking like she was drunk again. Which that was a disaster. “You’re welcome.” Then I went back to the kitchen to cook something. After I finally decided what to make I heard the doorbell ring. I walk over to the wooden front door sadly and open it.
23Please respect copyright.PENANABDeILw9ndW
“You couldn’t have come faster?”
“You know, Chrissy, that’s not how you should talk to your helper.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANA5di7VLt42u
Beth was finally here.
I led Beth over to Jeada and then left them alone. I still have to cook. I got a pot out and put it on the stove. I poured in some water and waited for it to boil. The second it started to boil I added some noodles. I put in some basil to add a little flavor. Afterwards I put the noodles into three serpent bowls and bought out the cheese and sauce. I gently set them down on the wooden table. “FOOD’S READY!!!” I yelled at the top of my lungs. Jeada came in with Beth and they sat down. I also sat down at the table. “So Chrissy you mind explaining what happened.”, I just about choked when Beth mentioned that.
“There was a big monster at the campsite and-”
“Jeada.”
“What?”
“Just focus on eating, I’ll tell Beth about what happened later.”
“Fine.”
Jeada doesn’t sound happy about being told to be quiet. But then again who would actually believe that we were attacked by a monster? I hope Beth forgets about what Jeada said because I don’t know what excuse I could possibly come up with. I guess I could tell Beth that it was a wild animal, it’s my safest bet for now. After we ate I had to help Jeada up the stairs and into bed. However when I went back downstairs Beth was waiting for me.
“So Chrissy…What happened?”
“I turned around to grab something and a wild animal came out of nowhere and attacked Jeada.”
“No ‘wild animal’ could have done that much damage.”
Oh boy now I was in for it. Beth didn’t believe me but what else am I supposed to tell her!? I can’t just tell her there was an actual monster, she wouldn’t believe that. So I did the only thing I could think of and I froze. I just stood there staring at Beth. Beth was a wonderful person. She is the nicest person I know but that doesn’t mean she’s a push over.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAmShXn65XRm
I don’t remember much from my talk with Beth partly because I froze and zoned out but I think she caught on to that. I woke up in my own bed. I walked down stairs and into the living room, Jeada was already there. She was sleeping though. I looked out the sliding glass door and I swear I saw something out there. My immediate thought was the monster had followed us home but it was just a squirrel. Jeada woke up from her early morning nap after that. Then Beth came in.
“Hey Chrissy and morning Jeada.” -B
“Hai Beth!” -J
“Come in for breakfast.”-B
“Alright.”-C
I’m still tired but that’s normal. Jeada sounds like she has energy for days and Beth sounds like she’s happy and content with life. I sounded like I was done with the world and honestly it’s not far off. I walked over to the table. I liked this table partly because I’ve had this table for years. It was a light brown with darker brown lines covering it. It’s been slightly abused through the years.
23Please respect copyright.PENANA36YCZkkXRI
I sat down at the table and just looked at my pancakes. I started eating them. When I looked up Beth was just staring at me which means she still wanted an explanation. I finished eating and stood up just then the phone rang. I picked it up.
“Your dog is ready to go home now.”
It was the nurse from the vet.
“Alright, I’ll come pick him up.”
“Wonderful, we’ll be waiting for you then.”
I put the phone down and looked over at Beth. She didn’t look amused.
“Beth please just look after Jeada until I get back…please.”
“Only if you promise to explain.”
“I will.”
I turned around and grabbed my car keys.
“Promise me, Chrissy.”
Beth really wasn’t going to let me leave until I promised her. I could hear her firm voice.
“Chrissy.”
“Fine…I promise to tell you about the call.”
I ran for it. I knew well that Beth didn’t care about the phone call. All she cared about was how Jeada got hurt. I jumped into the car and drove off before Beth could get to me.
I got to the vet and went in. Rome was there.
“Hey Rome.”
Bark bark. I had to sign the rest of the papers and then I took Rome by the leash. He didn’t fight me which is good. I put him in the passenger seat and I got into the driver seat. Then I started for Moor. I was at a red stop light when I heard something in the back seats, “Who’s this?"
I screamed. I looked around to see Beth was sitting in the back. I don’t think she meant to scare me. I turned back around. Beth scared me half to death.
“Are you ok Chrissy?”
I think I scared Rome when I screamed. Mainly because he jumped up and moved away from me, he is also probably wondering who the new person was, but he’s also a dog so he might’ve smelled her already and he just didn’t care.
“How did you get in here?” I asked.
“You took the longer route so I went through the front door before you. I got into the back by the time you got out of the house.”
“Oh.”
“So who is this?”
“That is Rome.”
“Since when did you have a dog?”
“He’s not mine.”
“Then why did you have to pick him up?”
“Because the vet doesn’t have Zola’s number.”
“Who is Zola?”
“A girl we met.”
“What happened to her dog?”
“Please stop asking questions.”
“No, you're not getting away with not answering me again.”
“Beth, I can’t, not now. Please.”
“Absolutely not.”
I stayed quiet. Beth kept trying to get information from me but she gave up. I pulled up to Zola’s house.
“Beth, stay here. I’ll be back.”
“Fine.”
23Please respect copyright.PENANAwYACj8JAM4
Beth doesn’t sound happy but oh well. I got out and got Rome. I walked up to Zola’s door and knocked on it. Rome looked really happy to be home. Zola opened the door. I watched her smile when she saw Rome. She bent down and hugged Rome.
“ROME!!!! YOUR OK!”
Zola stood up after letting Rome in and then she looked confused.
“What’s wrong Zola?”
“Who’s that?”
Now I knew that Beth was standing behind me.
“I thought I told you to stay in the car.”
“You did but I wanted to know who Zola was.”
I’m slightly disappointed in Beth but what am I supposed to do about it? I sighed.
“Chrissy?”-Z
“Yes Zola?”-C
“Who is she?”-Z
“This is Beth…my friend.”-C
“Hi Zola.”-B
“Heyyy Beth.”-Z
They talked for a while. I was getting a really bad headache, their talking wasn’t helping. I opened my eyes and they were looking at me, I could see small black dots covering my vision. I closed my eyes again.
I woke up on a couch. It was soft and fluffy and I could feel my head was on something that was breathing. I sat up only to be pushed back down, which I didn’t mind. I looked over and saw Beth and Zola looking down at me. Their mouths were moving but nothing was being said. I was still tired but I started hearing them speak.
“Chrissy, are you ok?”-B
“hmmmmmm”-C
“She’s responding!”-Z
“We should let her sleep for now.”-B
“Sounds good to me.”-Z
23Please respect copyright.PENANAGnPqSIAzrp
I watched them leave. I couldn’t believe this happened again. I did the same thing in my health class years ago. I was in 8th grade when it happened. We were watching a video about rabies. I started feeling light headed when I stood up. I put away my binder and started to walk to my desk where my backpack was so I could leave. Before I even got to my desk I started seeing black dots cover my vision. When I got back to my desk I completely fell over. I ended up hitting my head on my desk. I couldn’t hear anything for a bit but it didn’t last long. “Chrissy, are you okay?”
“Yeah, I’m fine.” Those were the only words I said to them. I stood up and grabbed my stuff and left for my next class. I was still light headed and I was still seeing black dots. But by the time I got to my next class I was fine. I felt like nothing had happened. I didn’t think it would ever happen again but here I was, falling over again.
Eventually I sat up and leaned on my side. The couch was white apparently and the breathing thing was Rome. I watched Beth walk back over to me. She leaned down a bit to get to my height.
“Chrissy, how do you feel?”
“I’m fineee.”
I was still really tired. I wanted to go back to sleep but I wasn’t going to give in with Beth here. Zola walked in, she was holding a small cup. It was a badge white with a flower pattern covering it. It had a small matching flower plate. Zola sat down next to me and handed me the cup. I looked down at it and it was tea. It was a mix of berry aloe, dandelion and some cimonion apple. I sipped the tea and it was good. Nice and hot.
“Hey, Chrissy, are you feeling okay?”-Z
“I’m fine.”-C
“Chrissy, I’m not stupid enough to fall for that.”-B
“I’m fine.”-C
“No, you're not.”-B
“But she said that she was fine?”-Z
“It’s hard to get Chrissy to tell the truth about this kind of stuff, she’s very stubborn.”-B
“Ohhhh.”-Z
“So Chrissy we really need to know how you're feeling.”-B
“Hmmmmmm… I’m fine.”-C
“Why did you fall earlier then?”-B
“I was tired.”-C
“Chrissy.”-B
“Yes?”-C
“I know you’re not okay.”-B
“I’ll be fine.”-C
I finished the tea and set it down. It was delicious. I looked around the room and it looked very fancy. It had a theme of white and a very light colors. The curtains were blush pink and the table was white with a copper colored cover. There were book shelves along the wall that were also white but the books were on cream yellow fabric under them. I could see plants on either side of the couch. I don’t know what type of plants they were but they are real plants. I can only imagine what the rest of Zola’s house looks like.
“Chrissy, please just tell us.”-B
“If I’m not dying then I’m fine.”-C
“I’m going to ask again later because I don’t want to do this circle with you right now.”-B
“Oh good.”-C
I hate making people worry about me. I’ve had headaches for years but that doesn’t mean I’m not fine. I get tired easily and I’m pretty sure I’m slightly insane. I don’t know how I deal with Jeada or Harley or Madelyn but I do. Where do they get so much energy? I stand up and now I feel dizzy. That’s ok though. I can’t wait to go back home and sleep, actually the likelihood that i’ll actually sleep is low. I kinda just lay there with my eyes closed, it fools people good enough. I can hear ringing in my ears and it’s driving me crazy. I manage to walk over to the car with Beth and get in, or at least I think I did…
23Please respect copyright.PENANApnu3l4AOKX
I woke up in a room, it wasn’t my room and it wasn’t my house. The room has hosta green walls and the bed is dark emerald green, the curtains are a green smoke color. I think I’m still in Zola’s house. But when I got up and started looking for people there was no one. I went outside but there’s no one here. An empty city. I walk around the city but it’s still empty, there’s nothing here. Where am I? was the only question running through my mind. I walked home and there was no one on my way there. I stood in my driveway but suddenly my front door was kicked open. Someone ran towards me. She had dirty blonde hair and lively blue eyes. She was more on the chubby side and she was crying. She yelled out “CHRISSY!”. I knew who it was, it was Harley.
“Harley, are you ok? You're not hurt are you?”
“Chrissy! I fell over on my bed and then I woke up and everyone was gone!”
Harley was speaking fast and she was panicking.
“Harley, calm down. I know you're scared right now but you have to calm down.”
Harley continued crying, which is… reasonable actually. I wonder how we got here in the first place. I mean all I did was collapse, oh wait, that’s how we got here. Or at least I think that's why.

CRASH
23Please respect copyright.PENANAuJ31LuoV9s
Harley and I screamed when we heard that. I can’t pinpoint where the sound came from. I grabbed hold of Harley’s hand because she’s shaking. I looked around to find nothing had moved and there wasn’t anything that showed that someone else was here.

I whipped my head around to see something small on the brown tiled roof. It has black horns on its head and a thin black tail with a bush of tail hair at the end. Its legs were like an animal and it was staring at us. It continued to stare at us until it jumped down from the roof and started slowly crawling towards us. I started backing away from it, still holding onto Harley. I pulled Harley back with me. I turned around and ran for it while pulling Harley by the arm. I ran all the way to the park. I hid inside the bright yellow slide and watched as the creature ran by. Only then did I realize that I was cutting off Harley’s blood circulation with my hand. I let her go and she breathed in deeply.
“Sorry Harley…”
“It’s fine.”
“If you say so.”
I wonder where that creature went. A better question was how do we get out of here. I can only guess for now.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAG09Mnqrt4l
Me and Harley had been in this place for a week now. The small black monster comes out to find us and chases us. We have to hide from it until nightfall. I once saw a light ghost looking figure that looked like Madelyn but I couldn’t do anything with or to her. She faded away soon afterwards. Sometimes the small monster looks like it's floating but jumps down when it sees us which makes me wonder if the monster was the thing that brought us here. Do I have to touch it when it goes back to the normal world to return or do I have to do something first? I’ve been having those types of questions in my head but I also don’t want to get hurt if it fails.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAzytRzxQ7GL
Harley is really scared and keeps yelling at every little thing, it's quite annoying. The monster always finds us because of her yelling and whining but there's not much I can do about it. I told Harley to stay in our little safe place for now while I go out to get food and what not. While I was walking around I saw the monster floating again but this time I could see what it was on. It was on Jeada, it was riding on her shoulder but then it saw me and started running after me. I eventually managed to hide from the monster and continue looking for supplies. I was close to my house in the normal world. It still looked the same.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAOv5D1aLZoy
Something suddenly attacked me from the side. It was the small monster, for something so small it was quite strong. It scratched up my face when, what looked like Jeada, grabbed it. She held it up and then threw it to the side and stood in front of me. I sat up and looked at Jeada. She was the same as the last time I saw her but why does she carry the monster around but also help me when it attacks? I’m so confused right now, this thinking is making my head hurt alot. I finally stood up and ran for it, I ran all the way back to my safe place, where Harley was waiting for me. “Hey, I'm back.” I called out in the house, I kept my face down so she wouldn’t see the scratch marks.
“I THOUGHT YOU WOULD NEVER COME BACK!” Harley yelled out. “I’m fine Harley.” As I said this I walked into the kitchen and put up the supplies I got and walked to my makeshift room. It wasn’t very big but it was enough for me, Harley keeps complaining about her room being small when it's not. I'm tired from running and I need to address my face bleeding. I sat down on my bed and then passed out.
I woke up and my face still hurt a lot. I got out of bed and saw the blood from the scratches all over my pillows and blanket so I walked to the bathroom. I saw myself in the mirror, I looked like I was homeless, which was true at this point. I started cleaning out my face wounds from yesterday. It hurt. I wonder if they’ll scar or not. I walked into the living area and there sat Harley. Same dirty blonde hair and sky blue eyes.
“Chrissy, you're awake.”, Said Harley.
"Yeah, yeah, I’m up.” I said quite bluntly. “OMG what happened to your face!” Harley yelled. I put my hand up to my face so I could hold my head. Her yelling wasn’t helping my headache.
“Quiet down a bit, would ya?” I answered.
23Please respect copyright.PENANA2f94UlYLjo
Harley gave up on trying to get me to talk about my face eventually. I’ve been thinking about what happened yesterday, Jeada can see me AND interact with the monster. I decided to go out again, which I can hear you saying ‘Don’t go out, you just got hurt!’ or ‘You're so stupid for going out there again.’ or something like that but I have to see what's going on and how to get back to the real world sooo I have to go out because Harley differently won’t. Walking outside again is kinda refreshing. I watch as transparent birds fly by without a sound and follow trails that I couldn’t before. I ended up at a house farther away from the small village we lived in.
23Please respect copyright.PENANASKsOrOEcWs
It was a small house along the edge of the forest. I could hear talking from inside. I crouched down and crawled over to the window. Peaking above it, I could see an old woman and…Jeada? Why was Jeada here? I watched them as they spoke and then Jeada suddenly got all happy about something. The old woman gave her something and then Jeada thanked her with a bow and left the old house. I slowly followed Jeada until she got to our house. She opened the door and appeared to be waiting for something. But what was she waiting for?
23Please respect copyright.PENANAfSlYfm15sB
I walked back home, it was pitch black by the time I got there. I opened the door and Harley doesn't look too happy about me being gone for so long. He then said, “I’m at a loss for words!”. The reason he said that was because I do this pretty often. I go out without telling him or where I'm going. Even though Harley said he was at a loss for words, he yelled at me for the next 45 minutes. After his rant, I went to bed and slept…ish. I got up the next morning and went to the living room. Harley was waiting for me, “We are going out together this time!” He declared. I would fight him on this but I'm not going too. We walked outside and he took me to our house. Harley didn't seem to see Jeada which was odd because I could. Jeada ran up to me and held out a weird looking piece of candy.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAIF2N67iYeX
It was yellow color and thinly shaped like a glass bottle. Jeada was making the motion to eat it. I tried grabbing at it but I couldn’t. My hand would just fade through Jeada’s hand. Jeada then held it like she was going to try dropping it into my hand so I held out my hands. Jeada then dropped it and I now had it in my hands. I looked over at Harley who was giving me the ‘What tf are you doing, your so weird’ type look. I showed him the candy and he stood up and ran over.
“Eat this.” I demanded. Harley happily grabbed it and ate it. I watched as he turned more soled and disappeared. I turned around and looked at Jeada who was in shock.
23Please respect copyright.PENANABFqKUJg4W1
Jeada held out another piece of candy so I went over and grabbed it. I ate it, it was actually pretty tasty. I watched as the world around me slowly spinned around. I woke up to see Jeada and Harley standing about me. I was on our couch and my head hurt a lot more than usual. I then realized something, I left the car at Zolas’ house and Beth. I stood up and started for the door. Harley and Jeada protested against me leaving so soon but I wasn’t listening. I started walking all the way to the city. It was black and a low fog started to roll in. The wind was howling in my ears and my vision was slowly starting to get blurry with black dots. I continued walking until I was at a light yellow house with a white lining. I walked over to the small patio. I almost collapsed right then and there. I rang the doorbell and waited. I could hear mumbling inside the building. Then I went out like a light. The last thing I remember is falling forward and hitting my head on the door.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAxPGoUOLonJ
Again I woke up with no idea where I was. This seems to keep happening, I should go see a doctor about that. I sat up and saw a white couch, blush pink curtains and a bookshelf with cream yellow fabric under the books. I could see a white table with a copper colored table cloth. It was Zolas’ house, which means I made it. But was it really worth the pain? No. It wasn’t.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAsMj11Rmean
I started to hear something walking up to the living room. I could tell it wasn't the monster but what if it’s a new kind? Then it walked into the room, it was just Rome, Zolas’ dalmatian. Rome started barking when he saw that I was awake. He walked over and layed down by my feet while I stared at the doorway because I could hear Zola and, I'm assuming, Beth coming down. As Beth and Zola ran around the corner, I could see that they had been crying which was really confusing or maybe that's just me. Beth ran over and hugged me tightly, it hurt a bit because of the squeezing then Zola started hugging me too. It started hurting a bit more from two people but I know they're doing it because they care.
23Please respect copyright.PENANAN6sfCob1nn
I know you’ll never believe it but I'm tired. Yeah, yeah, I know, I’m always tired. And guess what?...My head hurts! I know, it’s unbelievable. BUT I don’t feel like fainting sooo I’m getting better…I think. I should still see a doctor though. I’ll force Jeffery to call the doctor for me after she gets back. Beth and Zola finally let go of me so I got to finally breathe a bit. “What happened?!” Beth said loudly. “Which thing?” I asked because what exactly was she talking about. The fact that I disappeared without a trace or the fact that I just showed up out of nowhere passed out. Where had I gone or how I got here? All of these were good questions. “You disappeared and you were gone for like a week and now you just show up at zolas’ house, ON HER PATIO UNCONSCIOUS!!!” Beth yelled at me. “I totally went for a really long walk.” I lied but Beth doesn’t look like she’s having it right now.
“You mean you left without saying anything, started walking to who knows where. Then you come back a week later passed out on the patio? Don’t lie to me, no more hiding things.” Beth answered. “Yesssss?” I said in an uncomfortable voice. “Chrissy Kate Censen, you will answer truthfully.” Beth threatened me. “But-”
“NO BUTS!”
I stared at Beth for a while, she just glared at me the whole time.
“I might possibly have been in…another dimension for the past week while being hunted by a small monster thing.”
“I said no more lies.”
“I’m not lying Beth.”
Beth glare became rougher but what am I supposed to say now??? Then I turned my attention to Zola who was wide eyed. “Zola, help me.” I pleaded. “You were in a different dimension?” Zola asked curiously and concerned. “Yeah, me and Harley were there but Jeada helped us get out. Oh, wait. You don’t know how Harley is.”, I said, “Harley is one of my friends.” I continued. Zola listened to me while Beth gave me the side-eye, it was very harsh. “Beth please for the love of everything holy, stop giving me that look.” I finally said but Beth just turned her head around and stared at me. It was terrifying. “Why don’t you explain how you traveled to a whole new world.” Beth doesn’t believe me, which is reasonable. I don’t know exactly how myself, so how do I explain this. I just gave Zola a look and she understood, “I don’t think Chrissy would know how she got there because she was fainting earlier.” Zola said. I don’t think Beth believes either of us but I don’t think there's a way to prove that I was in a different dimension. “I wanna go home.” I said plainly, and it was true. I want to go home and lay in my bed without a care in the world. “I’m going to take you to the doctor’s.” Answered Beth. I was sad about that, “I don’t wanna go to no doctor, I wanna go home. Back to bed.” I said.
“Well you don't get to go home until you visit the doctor.
“But hoooome!”
“Don’t start your whining.”
“Home!”
“NO!”
I don’t feel like myself right now, I feel like a child. Like I don’t have control anymore but I’m still me. Beth ended up dragging me to the doctors office.
