The egg was hot. It hurt the side of her head.
The next people she experienced were blue and green blobs. The green one messed with her and she didn't like it, but the hurting on her face stopped. The bobbing reminded her of the two very worried people as she fell asleep.
When she woke up there was a new warm food place next to her and a kind voice speaking.
It was beautiful.
