Evelyn slowly opened her eyes and the once blurry surrounding became clear. She could see Lisa sleeping on Vanessa;'s sickbed with her head on Vanessa's laps. Vanessa was half sitting and half lying on the king-size bed, staring at the cute Lisa sleeping peacefully.
"She's such an innocent child. It's a pity that she's been ruined by her uncaring father. If i had such a father, i would have taught him a lesson. Poor kid" Vanessa thought with a sigh as she caressed Lisa's head.
Evelyn managed to sit up and Vanessa turned to look at her with a smile.
"Vanessa?"Evelyn called out softly in a parched voice as she adjusted a stray hair strand that was covering her eyes back to its original position.
Vanessa shook her head and stared at Lisa and then back at Evelyn.
"Lisa is sleeping. Please let's not wake her up"
Evelyn's eyes widened and she gasped in shock staring at Vanessa who was still smiling.
"Sorry, i made you faint from shock. Don't faint again and let's talk. I dunno why but i am capable of telepathy now and i just felt like using it since for the time being, i can't speak. Please do not freak out and try to reply to me....but not with your lips..i mean your mouth. Try if you can reply to me with your mind."
Evelyn opened her mouth as Vanessa nodded.
"I..."Evelyn was made to shut up by Vanessa shaking her head.
"I don't know what's happening. This feels really strange" Evelyn thought in confusion.
"Yeah! It's indeed strange and i still haven't come to terms with it yet. I don't know why i became mute"Vanessa replied to Evelyn telepathically making her gasp.
"So...we can actually speak to each other with our mouths closed and i'm also capable of telepathy?"Evelyn asked.
"Yes! You and i can.I'll try to connect with Lisa. But if i can't, then it means that i can only use this means of secret communication with you."
"Then...we can still speak even when Lisa forbids me to? Tha's just great!"Evelyn exclaimed telepathically."If not you...i wouldn't know that such a thing as telepathy existed"
"So now, about the fact that you are a monied girl. Why didn't you tell me? You know i don't chase riches" Vanessa asked telepathically with a serious look.
"I...i'm sorry! Very sorry!" Evelyn apologized with her head facing the ground.
"I forgive you but don't you ever dare to hide thins from me again," Vanessa said to Evelyn telepathically.
Evelyn held her ears.
"I'm sorry. I won't ever do that again. Are we still.."
"You need not ask. You're still and will remain my best buddy" said Vanessa telepathically.
"And telepathy companion" added Evelyn.
"Yes!And telepathy companion."Vanessa said and they both smiled.
