I brought the dandelions close to my lips. I could feel its breezy feathers tickling my lips. A silent prayer was running inside my heart, as I gathered strength to blow off the petals of hope. The petal flew with the wind, carrying away my wish, presumably to the valley of light. I closed my eyes in a moment of peace and let out a sigh.
I walked out of the meadow with a heavy heart. My heavy heart was somebody. A stranger with secrets weighing off it. A stranger, as I chose a different persona with the flying wind.
The phone buzzed in my coat. I pulled out to find Detective Conan ringing up. I looked around with eyes brimming with fear and excitement.
"Good morning, Liz," He said in a dull note. He must have just woken up.
" Conan! I- I found a body! Dead body!" I rambled with fear masquerading my voice.
"Damn! Where are you, Liz? Are you okay?"
" Meadow... I was walking and I saw a dead body. The blood is everywhere. Conan, I am scared."
" Liz, take a deep breath. Calm down. Call the cops and wait. I will be down there in a couple of minutes," he reassured, in a steady tone.
" Please come fast, Conan," I said meekly.
"I will," he said, ending the call.
A peal of sadistic laughter escaped as soon as I end the call. I hold my stomach with my knees touching the dandelion field. " Who said I can't escape?"
