I wake up the next morning to find that Emily is not next to me.
Alison: "Em?" I call her name, but receive no answer.
I decide to get out of bed and check the bathroom. I walk to the bathroom to find she's not in there either. I walk down stairs and she's nowhere to be found. Then there's a knock at the door and I quickly make my way to it, hoping it's Emily.
I open the door to find Hanna standing there.
Hanna: "Hey Ali! Wanna go shopping?"
Alison: "I can't right now Han. I woke up and Emily was gone! I don't know where she went! There's no note or phone call or text and I'm freaking out!"
Hanna: Her face falls and her eyes look sympathetic. "Ali... Emily has been dead for two years now."
No! She's not gone! She was just here last night.
Alison: Tears In my eyes. "No! You're lying Hanna! She was just here last night!"
Hanna: "Alison... We went to her funeral. We all miss her but you have to move on."
I shut the door in her face and sob uncontrollably.
This isn't possible. Why?! She's not gone! She was with me last night! I run up to my room and throw everything to the floor. I then fall to the floor in hysterics. Uncontrollable tears stream down my face.
Emily: "Ali! Alison!" I hear her voice, it's faint. Where is she? I don't see her.
Alison: Through streams of tears. "EMILY! PLEASE COME BACK! I need you!" I'm shaking uncontrollably. I can't believe this. All the moments we shared... They weren't real.
