Winifred burst into the morgue like she d lost her mind The first thing she saw was a body under a white sheet and a girl s arm hanging lifeless ly off the edge of the table
“No! How could you lie? Why did you lie to me again? You promised–you said you’d take me home! You lied to me!” Winifred screamed, her voice
cracking.
She just stood there, shaking all over. She squeezed her fists so hard her knuckles went pale, head hanging low. The next second, her tears came pouring out like a broken dam–she couldn’t hold them back anymore, no matter how hard she tried.
“Why did you lie? You’re such a terrible liar!” she sobbed, her voice hoarse with grief.
Amber came running in, panting for breath, curiosity filling her face–what was Winifred doing in the morgue?
Leaning against the doorway, gasping, Amber asked, “What… what are you doing?”
Winifred ignored her completely, her mind overflowing with guilt and regret.
It s my fault Winifred thought the words echoing in her head I got her killed
I killed her with my own hands
‘If I hadn’t messed with Jocelyn, if I’d just been a bit more ruthless and taken care of her for good, then she wouldn’t have made that final desperate move before dying.
I wouldn t have lost Sienna all over again
She promised to take me home but I never even got the chance to tell her just how much I wanted to go with her
“I wanted it so, so much. If only we could’ve made a deal–if only Sienna would promise not to leave again, not to abandon me all alone… then…
There are still so many things I haven t said to her
Amber stay away from me I might just lose it and hit you Winifred said her voice low and trembling
I might just hit you you heartless thing You never cry when you should but when it s not the time you bawl your head off Winifred thought
Amber blinked wide eyed and confused Why would you hit me she asked innocently
Winifred turned around was about to answer but the words caught in her throat as she saw the person standing behind Amber
There she was Sienna Standing tall and straight her eyes gentle and warm as she appeared out of the darkness like a ray of light
My sister Winifred cried out
She rushed over, gently brushing Amber aside, and threw herself into Sienna’s arms, holding her tight.
Sienna hugged her back and Winifred was still trembling all over her voice choked with emotion tears streaming down her face
S is I thought I thought you were Winifred stammered
Nothing would happen to me don t worry I ll always be here for you both of you as long as you need me Sienna said softly
Winifred cried for a while then looked up at her Sienna reached out and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes

Her voice was soft and warm Winifred I m so happy you called me s is
Winifred’s face flushed with heat, and she buried her head in Sienna’s chest, her voice barely more than a whisper. “You’ve always been my sister.”
Oh my butt My butt hurts so bad s is Amber whined dragging out the last word in a pitiful cutesy way

She d just been smacked to the floor by Winifred and she was fuming ready to get her sweet revenge But just as she was about to pounce she caught sight of Sienna hugging Winifred
Instantly jealousy bubbled up inside her and she started plotting her next move
Come here Amber let me take a look Sienna called gently
Win ikk ed felt that familiar warmth slip away from her and she instantly got all sulky shooting Amber a death glare full of resentment
“Sis, she must’ve done it on purpose! She pushed me down and now my butt hurts so bad–it’s gotta be all swollen!” Amber complained loudly.
She pouted pointing at Winifred and tattling on her like a little kid
Winifred was fuming, practically about to explode. “Amber, don’t you dare slander me! I just gave you a tiny push–how could your butt be swollen? Stop making stuff up!”
Amber hid behind Sienna looking all pitiful S is look she s being so mean to me Can we not let her come back home She ll only hit me
Amber you get out here right now Winifred growled through gritted teeth her eyes blazing with fury as she glared at Amber
S is she looks so scary Amber whimpered clinging even tighter to Sienna
“Alright now. Winifred, stop scaring your sister. She’s just a little scaredy–cat,” Sienna said, trying to calm things down.
