Her Last Words

"You got it RIGHT FINALLY !"

My friend Lia finally memorized her presentation, it just took 4 hours nothing more. She has a presentation due tomorrow.

We were having a sleepover as we always do in my house. After we finished memorizing we went to grab a snack before bed, all that work of memorizing sure made us hungry. My room was painted, floral white with grey flooring, on the right was my grandmother's picture, I had my grey bed right next to my table on the left.

I turned on the TV, as we sat munching on our chips, Lia looked up at the portrait of my grandma and asked "How long has it been since your grandma died? " I sighed

She said, "I mean I am so sorry, I didn't mean to upset you..."

"It's ok it's been a long time, I have recovered now, but it still haunts me that grandma couldn't finish her last words." "What were her last words?, wait to hold up let me guess" 'I love y-' or 'I'll miss-' or- "or what?" "Uhhh Nah that's all I got. I chuckled as I remembered her last words."I don't quite remember but she said something like 'The book i-', That's all she said " "Woah creeeepy" she whispered. I lay there thinking about all the fun times I had with my grandmother, I wished I could spend a little bit more time with her...I sighed while Lia was being distracted by her thoughts. She then looked at me and asked "Do you know what book your grandma was talking about", "Nope but why?" "I don't know maybe she was trying to show you something.

"Yeah no,.. let's just go to sleep you've got a big day tomorrow ", I turned off my lamp and went to bed. It's not unusual that I get nightmares every night.

If I put it into words, I get nightmares about getting trapped in a cage deep below the ground with my grandma beside me, and there would be a person looking down at us and before I could see the face clearly my alarm would ring as usual. Just then I realized it was 8 O'CLOCK "OH SHOOT, WE ARE GOING TO BE LATE !!" I exclaimed

We hurried down the stairs, grabbed a toast and ran out to catch the school bus. I ran to my class just as the bell rang. My other friend Kazuko Takatsukasa called out to me "Hey HERE, why are you so late?","Maybe just maybe I might have pressed snooze 2-3 times..? heh" I giggled.

Just then our Biology teacher entered the room." Good morning class, today is your presentation day, hope you all have completed your work and I don't want to hear any excuses" she said in a sleepy voice.'Yup, she definitely didn't have her morning coffee' I thought to myself.

After an hour the bell rang. We went to the cafeteria and began chatting, "I am so sorry I couldn't come to the sleepover yesterday you know I had the usual 'family night' and did you know Mrs. Jamie is holding a test TOMORROW I AM SO DOOMED" said Kai "jeez girl chill, you are gonna spill ur juice".As she sat down, I looked at her and she seemed worried."Cheer Up Kai we can meet up at our local library after school"

"Really?" "Of course," I said cheerfully.

AFTER SCHOOL

Then the final bell rang . We went straight to the library after packing our bags. We called our parents and informed them that we will be arriving late. Just as we entered the library a terrifying shadow came before us "Long time so see Zoey"....
