"Um... I don't really know where I should begin. Robin Marie Simms was, is my best friend. She is the cleverest girl I ever met and the only one who I knew that could tie cherry stems with her tongue. I don't really suppose that was the biggest feat but it was amazing. To me, it was amazing. She used to say that caring about us, me, was the bravest thing she'd ever do. And I um I guess she was right. Because what could be braver than trusting... especially trusting someone like me. I mean have you met me, I'm a complete disaster. But unlike me, she trusted with the full of her heart. I wish I could say that I did. And even in..., she trusted everybody more. I guess that's what made her braver than me, hell braver than any of us. Robin Marie if you can hear me, I guess than first, you were right ghosts are real and second... I'm sorry. I know you would tell me that I ain't got nothing to be sorry for, but I am. I'm sorry that you didn't get to see the world, that you never got to pet a chinchilla. And most of all I'm sorry that this is how it ends,"
Robin Marie is dead. And what does Laura; her best friend do now that the only one who knew her is dead. Of course, maybe they weren't just best friends.
