Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnd it was just like this. He could not express his feelings; it was supposed to be something small and easy to complete. But, for Jannat... “Okay, I'll help you.” Josh asked, “What's the second request?” Jannat wiped her tears and remained silent for a while. She then said, “When my parents brought me away, | saw Miah.” She said, “Her parents were devastated; they couldn't accept her death. They fought with the doctors in the hospital.” She continued to say, “They even hired a practitioner, but he failed to revive Miah. And he caused great suffering to her.” She saw Miah when she left. Miah mentioned that she did not want to die, yet it was painful for her to stay like this. “I pulled her along, but she refused to go with me. She clung to her mother.” She shook her head and asked, “Can you please check if she’s alright now?” Miah did not ask for her help, but she hoped that she was doing well. She neglected her as she was too focused on her parents; she felt sorry for her.
Lilly replied instead of Josh, “Okay, we'll check for you. But can you let us know what's that impressive item on you?” Josh hurriedly said, “Yes! What's that? It burned my talisman!” A spirit shouldn't be able to do this! Jannat was confused, and she muttered, “Huh? What do | have with me?” Lilly and Josh looked at her hands; she was grabbing onto something. She showed them and asked, “Are you guys referring to this? | folded this star!” It dropped in the car when she was on the way to the hospital, so she went to look for it. Lilly and Josh were stunned. So, she isn't clear about it either.
She worriedly said, “Josh, can you get the glass bottle for me? | know where it is.” She was hiding it from her mother, so she hid itin the corner of the hospital. She was worried that the cleaners would throw it away after she died. She had been worried about it going missing ever since she was dead. Josh asked, “Alright, let's go. Where is it?” She pointed at the entrance of the mortuary and said, “Over there, behind that door!” Outside of that door, there was another door at the end of the hallway; it was the safety exit. And it looked spooky with the green neon label...
Josh gulped and asked, “Why did you hide it there?” He could imagine that in the middle of the night, there was a pale girl sitting at the entrance of the mortuary, folding stars by herself. She answered, “Because there’s barely anyone here!” She did not know where to go; every other place in the hospital would be sanitized by the cleaner on a daily basis. She would lose her glass bottle if she placed it elsewhere. She had spent so much time looking for this place, and, of course, she did not know this was actually the mortuary. Usually, the doors to it were locked. So she was folding her paper stars outside of it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBlake said, “I'll get it!” Lilly instantly said, “Daddy, it's okay; I'll do it!” She easily opened the door. Blake thought, Is she getting better than me? There was a cold wind gushing in the moment the door was opened. Josh suddenly got scared; he shivered as he stepped out of the door. There was a stair outside, and it led both ways. It was extremely quiet and empty there, but he somehow felt like countless eyes were staring at him. It felt strange and scary. Jannat happily said, “It's here, Josh; please get it for me!” Josh glanced over and saw several racks and posters at the corner, and the posters were mentioning cancer treatment... These should be the materials for a talk. There was a soft plush behind them, and Josh felt even more stimulated looking at it. He picked up the soft plush and found the glass bottle in it. The glass bottle was around the size of a mineral bottle, and there were dried flowers in it. And it actually looked pretty nice; there were some folded stars among the dried flower petals.
Jannat sighed. “I picked the peach flower during spring time, and | picked the orchid planted by the doctor.” The orchid was beautiful, and it would turn dry after blossoming. When it dropped, it became a dried flower. She loved to pick it because people would barely notice it, and she was sure that her mother would like the faint purple flowers. She continued to say, “I got the rose from the people visiting their family in the hospital.” And she said, “I picked the osmanthus during the summer time...” It was sad that she could never pick the flowers in autumn and winter. She wanted to gather the flowers of all four seasons so that her mother could have them.
She hoped these flowers could be with her mother throughout all seasons.
