ROSI
MY POOR LITTLE HEART RACED FASTER THAN THE SUPERSONIC JET WHIPPING
us across the world. Glancing at Cora only made my anxiety worse. My best
friend was on her third tiny bottle of rum and second can of cola, a canaryyellow bikini strap visible beneath the ruffled sleeve that slipped down her
shoulder. She swayed to the music in her head without an ounce of selfconsciousness, whipping her multicolored hair back and forth in time to
something only she could hear.
When she opened her eyes to take another swig, she noticed me staring
and shook her head.
“I thought you’d relax once we left LA, but here’s Rosi, looking pale as a
vampire, and as rigid as one who’s been staked up the ass.”
“Thanks,” I groaned, checking to see if anyone else in first class heard
her. It would’ve been a miracle if no one had since Cora had the loudest
voice ever.
“It’s a very long stake. Like a big ole flagpole.” She snorted before
guzzling the remainder of her plastic cup.
I chewed on a stray curl, completely aware I was restarting a habit I’d
kicked long ago.
Cora batted it out of my mouth and leaned in, wafting rum flavored
breath all over me.
“This is the vacation of a lifetime. Would you please at least try and
relax?” She pulled me to her side and ground her knuckles on my scalp a bit
too hard. “You won this trip for a reason. It was meant to be. It was literally
in the cards—remember that Tarot spread I did right before you got the call?”
Leaning on her shoulder, I blocked her hand from messing further with
my head. “You said, ‘Good news,’ as I recall. Not exactly, ‘You win a trip to
a fantasy resort in Greenland.’”
“The cards said both our lives were transforming. We are coming out of
our chrysalises on this trip.”
I shuddered at the memory of Cora overturning the Death card the
morning I’d gotten the call about winning the trip. Her interpretation was
great, but no denying the giant, gilded word splayed across the front shook
me.
It was a good thing Cora was the psychic. Even though I believed in the
strange, I’d never shown any personal gifts before, and after the night I had
not forty-eight hours prior, I didn’t want to consider having developed a
sudden talent featuring prophetic nightmares.
The dream that hadn’t felt like a dream flashed through my mind in
crystal clarity: the snarl, the blur of mottled skin, then the stench of
something rotting, but most of all the stark contrast of dark red running in
rivulets across the pristine snow.
