Excerpt
My mouth watered at the rare smell of bacon and eggs. My favorite. We seldom found scarce commodities like pigs and could barely afford bacon or other cuts if we did.
“Come down for breakfast, Ziamara,” called my grandma.
“Hold on!”
The food smelled heavenly, although what I really wanted was something else entirely. Delicious, red liquid. But I only had one bag remaining, and I couldn’t waste it. Not when I wasn’t sure where the next one would come from.
Staring at my reflection, I found it hard to believe I’d recently faced death’s door. Though a bit paler than it once was, my complexion had never been better. Not a single mark marred my skin—no reminders of my long hospital stay.
I rose and went over to my full-length mirror, turning from side to side. My bones no longer stuck out from all my lost weight. In their place were some lush curves, exactly where I’d always wanted them. I smiled, never having been so pleased with how I looked.
Regardless, I threw on an old hoodie. I would draw enough attention, and I didn’t need my figure to add to that. Another day.
I ran a brush through my newly long, thick shiny brown hair. Even prior to being sick, it had never been so full of life.
How ironic, considering I was now technically dead.
Okay, I’d been more than just at death’s door. I’d passed through, coming back on the other side. It’s all semantics.
