Welcome back everyone. Here is the final chapter. Next week, I begin "Attack of the Flying Mustaches." Just a breather something a bit more comedic after all this drama! Enjoy and review.
Who was that girl?
Taking a few small steps out of the funeral home, Niall looked around. Everything was so nice, the sun was shining, the birds were chirping, there wasn't a cloud in the sky! Now if only Heidi and Theresa weren't holding his hands. He wasn't a baby, he had not just spent a year in a wheelchair, had not just gotten legs surgically attached to his body.
"I-I-I can w-w-walk fine." Niall stuttered. He might have had no problem speaking to his family without stuttering now but other people he would have a problem talking too. When it came to someone like Randy or Theresa, Niall wouldn't be able to get anything out. When it came to someone like Heidi, Niall would only be able to stutter. Hence a stutter while he addressed Heidi in a whisper. Heidi just ignored him. This was torture!
"Hey!" At that point, Ken came running out. "What's the matter with you two? The sword went through his chest and miraculously missed every organ! It didn't go through either of his legs." Shooing the girls away, Ken put a hand on Niall's shoulder. "Not every day you walk out from your own funeral, huh?"
Niall didn't even hear Ken. At the crosswalk he saw a girl… A girl that Niall knew and at the same time didn't know! Her skin was like ivory to Niall's eyes, she wore a dress that swirled like chiffon. Because she wore sandals, Niall saw that her feet were slender and whiter than snow if that was possible. And her hair! Niall saw both red and yellow hair upon her head. From where he stood, Niall saw that the girl's left eye was blue and her right eye grey… Very curious! And then he saw those red lips! Was this girl even real or was she some sort of dream that Niall saw in the daylight?
Starting to run over to talk to the mysterious girl, Niall tripped on the steps of the funeral home and for the first time in his life, screamed in pain as he skinned his right knee.
Not protesting with a stutter, he welcomed the help of Heidi, Theresa and Ken too. Looking at the crosswalk, Niall did not see the girl there. Had she even been there? Was he a mortal looking for the divine? Perhaps.
But who was this girl? What was her name? Niall had seen her many times for fleeting moments but now he started to question if what he saw was even real.
The End
