Chapter 25

Winter POV

I’m walking in a field surrounded by all sorts of vibrant beautiful flowers. I have no clue where I am but I feel peaceful, relaxed. It’s confusing. I remember shooting Thomas and passing out. Had I died? Because if I had I couldn’t complain about the beauty and serenity of this place. I touch the flowers and feel the softness of their petals, smell their beautiful perfume as it drifts in the air, stare at the bees buzzing around and feel the cool breeze as it flows

There’s no pain, it’s the first thing I realize and I stare down at my body which is whole, no sign of the gunshot in

my foot or any bruises. There’s no blood and I’m wearing a purple sundress that cascades down to my toes, my feet are bare and sinking into the soft green lush grass. I’m in heaven.

I sit and begin to make little daisy chains. Time seems to have no meaning here and I figure if I’m dead then

anything goes. The daisy chain goes on top of my head and I smile, lying back down on the soft grass and stare up at

the clouds in the clear blue sky, I wonder about my brother and if he’s doing okay, even feel a little sorry for Johnathon who probably felt bad for rejecting me. I don’t even think about father and what he’d done to me. It was like every emotion of mine just slowly faded away and left me feeling peaceful. If this was heaven then it wasn’t too

bad.

“You’re not dead yet” a musical voice says and I blink at the shadow suddenly blocking my sight. Theres a

beautiful woman in front of me with silvery gray hair and sparkling blue eyes. She’s not old though, she looks like a

young woman and she’s wearing a silver dress that shimmers in the sunlight, a small tiara sits upon her head.
