Chapter Eleven

I waited. Why wasn’t I leaving? Sara got what she wanted. Did I have to be sorry for her? Did I have to be friends with her again and give up Leila and Kelli? It didn’t make sense. I didn’t want to be friends with Sara anymore. At least not besties.

“What is wrong with this thing?” I shouted. I slammed my palms against the bubble. It became clearer.

Suddenly I saw my dad on the sidewalk outside. Was I going crazy? Isn’t he supposed to be dead? I had to follow him.

Brad didn’t even seem to see me. He seemed to be going to my house, but why? All of a sudden he disappeared so I went home. I looked everywhere except my room. It just made me sad to know I couldn’t sleep there anymore. Eventually I had to look there cause he didn't seem to be anywhere else in the house. As I walked through the door I saw him going through my diary, but why? Then he started floating, and he mumbled something weird. He just kept getting higher and higher in the air. He didn't even speak to me. Then, he turned around his eyes were bloodshot, and had huge bags under them. His lips were a dark purple. He looked like a zombie.

Wait! What if he is a zombie?

I slapped my forehead and told myself not to be silly.

It scared me so much that my chest hurt. I started breathing very heavily. What was happening? Was my dad doing this to me? Was he here to kill me?

I'm just worrying myself for no reason. He is my dad, I realized.

I just noticed the bubble was getting foggier, but not like it usually does. It was humid and my skin felt slightly sticky. Then my dad grabbed the bubble and started shaking it. This scared me a lot more. I started hyperventilating again. Was I having a heart attack? It hurt so bad I thought I was dying. The bubble just got foggier and foggier it was almost white and I was steaming hot. It was like I was a vegetable in a steamer! I feel bad for them now. It was getting harder to breathe by the second. The bubble was running out of oxygen, then I just couldn't breathe. Was I going to die in here?

Then my world went black.
