I went to my room, turned off the lights, adjusted both of my braids and laid on my bed.
“They are still here!” I said while looking at the star-shaped radium stickers on the ceiling. I also remembered the talk I had with Mom about Shalini.
“So, she is back,” I said to myself and started thinking about her. I still remember her like it was yesterday.
I met her when I was 11 years old. I was new in the town and was playing in the garden near our home. My sister was at home to play with her new friends so I was alone today.
