Lizzie was very quiet during breakfast that morning. She had too many things going through her head she couldn't think straight. She didn't know how to feel. Her parents knew she was still a little unwell so they didn't want to bother her. Matt wasn't about to break the silence either. She couldn't stop thinking about the dream, and she was debating as to whether or not she should tell anyone. It can't be just an ordinary dream. I just can't! Gordo must be trying to contact me from beyond the grave, I just know it. Gordo said he bought me a necklace for my birthday, she thought. I wonder if it's really in his closet? If it was, that could prove that Gordo was really trying to contact me.

"Lizzie, would you like some more juice?," asked her mother, finally breaking the silence.

"Huh?"

"Would you like some more juice?" repeated Jo.

"Oh, no thanks mom"

After breakfast Lizzie goes back to her room to think things over. She decides she must find out whether or not Gordo really bought her that gift, but she will need Miranda's help. Lizzie picks up the phone to call Miranda.

"Hello?", answered an older woman.

"Hola, Mrs. Sanchez," replied Lizzie. "Can I please talk to Miranda?"

"Hello Lizzie. How are you dear?" asked Mrs. Sanchez with a serious tone of voice. She was obviously concerned about her.

"Not too good," said Lizzie plainly.

"I understand. I'll get Miranda for you," said Mrs. Sanchez. "Miranda! Telefono!"

Miranda picks up the phone and answers, "Hello?"

"Miranda, I had another dream," said Lizzie quickly.

"Oh. Was it about Gordo again?"

"Yeah, and I need your help."

"For what?"

"I think I can prove that Gordo is somehow trying to contact me," answered Lizzie.

"Lizzie, it was just a dream," argued Miranda. "I know that you miss Gordo a lot, but you can't let it control your life like this."

"Listen, just help me out with this," pleaded Lizzie. "If I don't find what I'm looking for, then I'll accept the fact that he's really gone okay."

"Okaaay," said Miranda defeatedly. "So, what do you want me to do?"

"Meet me at my house. I'll explain everything on our way to Gordo's."

A short time later, Lizzie sees Miranda approaching her house through her window. Lizzie goes downstairs to opens the front door just as Miranda was about to knock.

"So, what's the plan?" asked Miranda.

"Well, first we need to go over to Gordo's house" said Lizzie. "Oh, wait. Let me just tell Matt I'm going out."

Lizzie walks over to the living room where Matt, Lanny, and Melina are sitting on the couch, playing video games. "Hey Matt, I'll be right back," said Lizzie.

"Where are you going?" asked Matt in a nosy kind of way.

"None of your business," responded Lizzie.

"You're not going to find the necklace over there," announced Melina, not bothering to turn her head away from the TV.

"How do you know about that?!" asked Lizzie quite shocked at how Melina knew about her dream.

"Because I've already gotten it," said Melina rather braggingly as she looks over to Lizzie. "Ain't that right Lanny?" Lanny smiles and nods his head as to say yes. Lizzie's jaw practically fell to the floor.

"You better give it back to me! It's mine!" demanded Lizzie.

Matt, Melina, Lanny, and even Miranda all stare at Lizzie with funny looks.

"What the heck are you talking about?" asked Matt.

"Uh, what are you guys talking about?" asked Lizzie nervously.

"Uh, hello? The magic necklace....from the video game we're playing," said Melina in an ain't it obvious sort of way. "What did you think we were talking about?"

"Oh, nothing" said Lizzie quickly. "Carry on. Come on Miranda, let's go"

"Bye Lizzie," said Lanny as the girls are exit the front door. Lizzie takes a quick look back surprised to hear Lanny speak.

"Did Lanny just sp-?"

"What was that all about?" interrupted Miranda.

Lizzie sighed. "I'll explain everything on our way to Gordo's house"
