Death Talk

"Dead? Didn't you say that she fainted because of a trauma to the head?" Jasmine asked, standing up and staring Rose down.

"Hey, don't blame me. Aurora begged me to report it as that." Rose said, raising her hands up in surrender. 

"Are you sure she was dead?" Jasmine asked, "Maybe her heart just stopped for a while. That has happened before." 

"Right. But Meraki's heart was ripped out of her ribcage and placed in a jewellery box. It took some searching to find it." Rose scratched the back of her head, recalling the incident. "Aurora brought Daisy the moment they heard of the attack. Once we found the heart, she confirmed that it was, indeed Meraki's and she was definitely dead." 

"Why was my heart in a box?" I asked, looking at Rose. 

"That's what you're concerned about?" Rose asked, bewildered, "You know that you died right?"
