Wallys POV

A few months passed when I realized the neighbor had little yellow flowers growing on their ears. It was suspicious yet I'm sure it's nothing to worry about.

"Hey, Applehead. I wanted to give you something." The neighbor said while handing me a scarf with their favorite colors on it as they started to talk again. "I wanted to give it to you for the first time we met, but I forgot, and I realized I should wait a bit till after to give it." "That's stupid." I say, putting it in my pocket, continuing. "Why would I want a scarf it's not like it's cold." The neighbor looked at me as they talked. "Well, I wanted to give it to you, so now I did. If you don't want it, burn it or something." "I will then." I said, looking at them.

"What should we do today?" I ask. "Ah, well, I have to do some things today, so I can't hang out.." They say. "Alright then. It's not like I wanna hang out. Especially with you." I say jokingly "Well I should get going, bye!" The neighbor says while running away and waving. "Bye." I replied.

When they finally look forward, they fall. I tried to hold in my laugh, but it was too hard not to laugh. They got up and looked at me, then flipped me off before running again. "Don't fall again!" I yelled jokingly. "I most likely will!" They yelled back.

After that, I just went home. It was boring now that I had no one to entertain me at the moment. it was 10 am. Barnaby is busy. I don't even wanna try talking to Frank. I'm probably just gonna take a nap for now.

I woke up to it being 11 pm at night. I got up to the kitchen and poured a glass of water before drinking it. Didn't expect to sleep that long. Maybe I should take a walk. Wouldn't it be weird? Whatever it's not like anyone else would be up this late.

I put on my shoes and walked around outside. It wasn't too cold or too hot. it was just the right temp. After my second walk around, I realized one of the neighbors' lights was on. Weird. I went up to the door and knocked. No answer? They wouldn't mind me just going in, right? I realized the door was unlocked and opened it walking inside. It seemed like the light was on the second floor. I walked up the stairs and saw a light peeking through the door. Should I really? Yeah, I should. I opened the door. "What?.."

I quickly sat up breathing heavily. "What the f$^k was that!?" I looked at the time to see it was 12 pm in the afternoon. I sighed after realizing it was just a dream. It's a really, really weird dream.

I heard a knock at my door. "Wally, if you wanna hang out, I can!" The neighbor yelled. I opened the door. I was still trying to calm down from the dream. "You good? Looks like you seen someone die." They said concerningly. "Yeah, im fine. I just got worked up over something, but it's fine. " I reply. "If you say soo.." They say

A few weeks passed when I realized the yellow looking flowers on them started spreading. "Hey, what's with the flowers?" I ask. "I don't know. They just started growing for some reason." They reply. "Alright then. What flowers even are they?" I ask. As they spoke again.
