Shay's eyes opened to find a pink-haired beauty that didn't look much older than herself looking back at her with a warm smile. She shut her eyes and blinked them back open a few times to confirm that she wasn't dreaming. But every time her eyes opened, the woman was still there with a smile on her face.
"Are you okay?" the woman asked in concern. "Do you feel any pain or discomfort?"
Shay couldn't speak due to her shock and repeatedly shook her head back and forth. The woman chuckled as she walked to the other side of the room. "I'm glad you're okay. I was so worried when I saw Ari brought you in. She said you were her friend. I've never met any of Ari's friends."
