It was Christmas Eve and the snow was just starting to fall. Rosie was looking at it while she was talking on the phone with her friend, Lisa. She had already returned to her family in Melbourne.
L: Some relatives are going to visit us tomorrow. How will you spend Christmas day?
R:Well, I'm going to stay with my parents and my sister for lunch and in the evening, my sister and I are going to visit some friends.
L:Nice! …Ok, Rosie, I need to leave you now. Talk later!
R: Talk later!
It was getting dark. Her sister was at her best friend’s and her parents were at her aunt and her uncle’s. She decided to go for a walk so she left a note on the kitchen counter:"I AM GOING FOR A WALK TO THE OLD PARK". When she was a child, she played there with her friends but now, it was an old, unfrequented park. She had so many beautiful memories of this park. She sat on a bench and while she was thinking, she saw an old man staring at her. He reminded her of someone. He was self-same as her grandfather, who was dead. She freaked out! She closed her eyes and when she opened them again, the old man had left. Two minutes later, she saw a 13 year-old girl looking at her.She was same as her friend, Jennie, who had died in a car accident.
"They cannot be them! What is happening to me?!",she shouted.
It was 6:00 am. Her sister, Alice, was heading to the old park, where her sister had been last night. Her parents had come back and gone to bed early that night, so they hadn't worried about Rosie. But Alice had been waiting for her and when she didn't come back, she decided to go and find her.
When she arrived,she saw her sister sleeping on a bench.
"Rosié! Rosié!" Rosé woke up.
R: Where am I?
A:In the old park.Why did you sleep there?
R:I came for a walk and I fell asleep.
A:Let's go back home before our parents wake up.
Rosé was thinking about last night. She didn't tell anything to Alice. What had it been? She didn't believe in ghosts. Was it just a nightmare? Maybe hallucinations? She didn't know.
