The ridgewells

Chapter 3. The dream

She was surrounded by family, her sister still at her side. When she went to look at her sisters face, they were pulled into a black ocean by the legs. Two hands grabbed their arms, pulling them apart. Their skin ripped like paper, and they were being dragged away from eachother. Her sister was dragged through the black ocean, and soon she was too. Then she was staring out a window. When she looked down, there was a corpse. It looked exactly like her. A ginger afro, dead green eyes, and brown skin. The corpse had already started decomposing, there were maggots all over the girls side. It was Evelyns corpse. Melody didnt even have time to process that, because then the hospital room was spinning. Then Melody was holding her baby sister with her left arm, Sam having propped up her arm with a pillow. Lyric, her baby sister, was all white, white hair, paper white skin, white eyelashes, she was all white. When Melody had asked about this, Sam said it was because she was Albino. "Albinos lack pigment in their skin," they had said, "and that makes them really sensitive to the sun. Albinos are also legally blind, they have terrible vision," Sam said, trying to help Melody understand. If it wasn't a dream
Melody would've asked more questions, but the the room had started spinning before she could. Then she was greeting her older sister, Bailey, home. Bailey looked much orettier when she was younger, but thats because she was clearly more comfortable with how she looked. First off she had much longer hair that was tied into twin french braids, and she looked much neater in the orphanage uniform she was brought home in. Melody went to bring Bailey to the room that they'd have to share, but when she walked past the bathroom, she saw Rose forcefully cutting Baileys braids off. I guess being a pirate helped Bailey in crying silently, because Melody could see tears running down her face. Melody wanted to comfort her, but the moment she stepped close enough to touch Bailey, she got dizzy. Everything was spinning so fast that she couldnt even tell if she was in the same room as before. Melody couldn't think at all, she couldn't even tell if she was still dreaming. Thats when the familiar bottom of her little sister's bed came into view.
