Eyes wide, and thinking she must have hurt herself as well, I inquire, "What are you doing here?" How and why had she kept the same hairstyle after all these years when she changed it so often in the past? Long tiny braids that hung to her wide hips.
Something isn't right. I could feel it.
"Every day is the same with you," she said, rolling her eyes playfully. "Can't you wake up like normal people, Meg? You scared the hell out of me, again!"
Again? Lol, Zulu used to say this to me all the time back in our dorm. We used to be roomies but that was years ago. And way too long ago for her to be so casual- especially given the way we parted.
Maybe Zulu was letting bygones be bygones.
