Cara's incident on the ship yesterday isn't over yet, it's gave the word "gossip" a whole other meaning! From dribbling babies in cream frocks to smart boys with bow ties, everyone is talking about it. Cara needs to take a nap, she's so fixed on getting back into her dream. For the rest of the day Cara surrounds herself with flowery materials and marbles. When the mysterious night falls over the sky Cara realises that-"It's time." Cara throws her yellow duckling onesie onto the floor and changes into what she was wearing yesterday. Cara picks up the marbles, rolling them around in her closed-and sweaty hands, she pushes some daisies and roses into her hair and takes some sleeping pills from her drawer. As soon as Cara is about to fall fast asleep Freddie bursts into the room and blurts out-Cara snaps back into her dream. Cara is still running through the room but as Freddie is shaking Cara her dream is turning into a nightmare! The marble floor shakes and explodes into dozens of enormous marbles. Cara falls through them and tries to reach for the sky. Cara struggles to breathe. It's like she's drowning in marbles. The floral walls collapse and flowers slowly drift down from the sky, everything is like it's in slow motion. Cara gently closes her eyes and suddenly, everything is back to normal but Cara doesn't feel like she's woken up yet. Cara is alone on the deck of the ship, people yell in the distance and Cara turns around, Cara can just about make out the outlines of people sprinting towards her. She hears hundreds of faint whispers... Time is ticking... Open your eyes... Time is ticking... Open your eyes... Time is ticking... Cara is then startled by the raspy scream of a man saying, OPEN YOUR EYES!
