When my parents came in I forgot how to speak. They had rushed in after I had woken up and were now standing by the door to my room.

"You guys are-" I lost the will to speak. Looking at them I could just barely tell it was them.

They just looked at me sadly. I couldn't believe it. The last time I saw them they were so young looking, and now the were the opposite. They were old.

I looked down at my self expecting to see my self looking older, taller, bigger were my chest was. Every thing though looked the same. I still looked sixteen.

"I dont- I don't understand" I whispered at them.

"Why did I look the same but you two look so.... Old?" I was on the verge of tears.

"You were sleeping." My mother nodded. She looked as if she wasn't sane.

"People said you were dead but we knew you weren't." Now she was stroking her hair,  she definitely was not sane anymore.

"Honey." My father whispered to her. "You should go to bed."

Mother simply nodded and shuffled away. Father waited until he saw her slip into their room and shut the door.

"You were asleep for 49 years." He whispered on the verge of crying.

I quickly did the math in my head. Last I remembered dad was 47 and mom was 36. If I add 49 years to both of those then dad was now 96 and mom was 85.... and if you add 49 to 16 that would make me 65.

"Wait. Does that mean I am 65 years old?!" I stared at my fathers wrinkled face, he nodded.

"Then why!!" I screamed confused "Why do I look the same!?"

At this point both me and father were crying. He shook his head.

"I don't know. Maybe the lightning?" It sounded more like a question the way he said it.

I sat there I fear of what I just discovered. I casted a glance a my father. He was old now, could crying stress out his heart?  Could he die from stress now that he was old?  Not wanting to find out out I decided to send him to bed.

"Dad," I waited for him to look at me ", I am tired we should go to bed." It was the best I could do.  He simply nodded and shuffled out.

After he left I laid down.  I wanted to cry but didn't want to disturb my parents. After lying there sobbing quietly I drifted into an uneasy sleep. 

That morning when I woke I discovered both by parents lying in bed dead. The both seemed so peaceful lying there together. I ended up burying them together.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*okay I don't really like this one much either. I mean I think it is better than the last one at least but still pretty bad. Well I guess I have to deal with it cause I am to lazy to craft it to my likings. Well see ya my little Lazzies!
