I jumped when something touched my shoulder, turning around to face the thing I well giving my self whiplash.

"Nana?" I barely even heard my self speak.

She wore a hospital dress then everything else was bare even her feet.

She smiled at me and put her hand on my cheek.

I was little when Nana was alive and well then a couple years ago she got cancer, she try'd so still teach me things like Spanish. That's why I call her Nana its mom in Spanish.

But two years after she never came out on top and more six feet under.

I smiled at her, "hello Nana."

She brought up her pointer finger to her lips as if the say 'shhh'.

I gave her a confused look, why does she want me to be quiet?

Then she brought it down to point at my pocket, same one that holds the ball.

I slid my hand into my pocket to make sure it was still their. My fingers touched warmth metal, I don't understand why but a calming feeling came over me.

I looked back up at where Nana stud, she was still smiling down at me.

Then she pointed to my chest where my heart is, why is she not talking?

She waved at me like goodbye. No she can't leave me not now.

I reached out to touch her but she just passed throw my fingers like a cloud.

Then she was gone just disappeared, everything was just black.

Then I was falling..up...

Like their was no gravity, something was slipping out of my pocket.

I looked down to find the metal ball falling after me.

I keep trying to grab it, did you know it's hard to move with no gravity.

The dress tangled around my legs making me feel like I'm a fish in a net.

I could feel it just at my finger tips, the ball started to light up.

Then my fingers where around it.

Light every where...
