The scene changed then, and I was sitting next to a lake. I frowned and said, "Not this dream again." I closed my eyes and said, "Happy dream, happy dream, happy dream." When I opened my eyes, I was standing next to Elphaba in a closet. "Elphie, now what?" I asked. "Not sure, but how does this door open?" she asked. "Um, open sesame." I suggested. "Hey, it worked," Elphaba said, laughing as she dragged me outside. I looked at Elphaba and said, "Why are we still in a closet?" "Um, I don't know." "Scene change," I muttered and we were back at the lake. I groaned and Elphaba said, "This is the weird dream, right?" "If by weird, you mean I jump off a cliff, and you almost drown trying to save me, then yes." I said. "Okay, wait why are you jumping off a cliff?" she said. I shrugged and said, "I don't know." "You are so weird, sometimes, Galinda," Elphaba said. I twisted and smacked Elphaba. Elphaba smacked me back and within minutes we were in a catfight.
I managed to pin Elphaba and she said, "Galinda, you are aware that if I move, we both fall off a cliff." I stared at her and said, "Yep, we fall off a cliff and I really don't want to experience that—actually, I don't even want to know what that would be like, for that matter." I sat up and grabbed Elphaba's arm. "Elphaba, do me a favor and shut up." I told my little sister. "Nope," Elphaba said calmly. "Galinda, I never do what you tell me to." I grimaced and yanked Elphaba up and said, "Let's get out of here." She nodded silently and she ran off into the woods, suddenly. I ran after her and said, "Elphie, wait for me!" There was no response. I ran faster, and screamed, "Elphie! Elphie, where are you?" Frustrated, I screamed, "Elphaba Upland, you answer me!" There was still no response. I raced through the woods, finally tripping over something. I turned around and felt someone grab my leg. I sucked in a deep breath, whirled, and punched the person behind me. "Geez, Galinda," I heard Elphaba mutter. "Would you mind not punching me?" I hugged her then and asked, "I want to wake up." Elphaba nodded and said, "On three, we pinch each other—that way we wake up at the same time." I nodded and three seconds later, we pinched each other, waking up.
I stared at the ceiling and said, "Let's see how long we stay up." "Let's not," Elphaba said back. I glared at her and she glared at me and I said, "Some things never change." Elphaba grinned and said, "We still don't get along?" I grinned and said, "Nope—we don't." Elphaba grinned and sitting up, said, "Galinda, is something wrong?" "No! No!" I said, quickly—a little too quickly, according to Elphaba. "Why do you think that?" "Galinda, I know my twin and you only get like that when something's troubling you. Something is wrong and you're not telling me what it is. How can I help you if you won't tell me?" I sighed and said, "I'm not sure how to explain to Momsie and Popsical that we get along—as far as they know, we still hate each other." Elphaba sighed and said, "We don't tell them—let them figure it out on their own, Glinny—it should work." I nodded and said, "Okay, Elphie." Eventually, we both fell asleep again.
