BlogFlash 2012 Day Sixteen: Different World

Eliza rushed to Rowland’s house after the incident at the library. She knew everything was connected somehow, and she was going to find out what that connection was.

Rowland answered the door with a welcoming smile on his face, but his smile turned to confusion when he saw her disheveled hair and crossed arms.

“What happened?” Rowland said.

Eliza explained the whole scenario. “…And on top of all that, I think your friend, Vick, was involved after what he said in the woods, and…”

“Wait, Vick was in the woods?”

“Yeah, he said you didn’t really love me, and I should stay away. I didn’t see him, but I recognized his voice.”

Rowland sighed. “Eliza, I need to tell you something…. I’m not from here.”

“From where, Oregon?”

“No, I’m from a whole different world, sort of.”

“Like, Mars, or something?”

“No, kind of like a different dimension. I’m not totally human, I’m…”

“Okay, sure. This is ridiculous. I’m out.”

Eliza left his house, letting the door slam behind her.
