My Death On My Sister's Wedding Day

Synopsis

My mom burst into my room, her face radiating joy. She beamed, "Emily, stop pretending to be asleep. Olivia's wedding is done, and it was absolutely perfect." She strode over and tried to yank me up to share happiness together. But the instant her hand touched my arm, she jerked it back as if she'd been shocked by electricity. She quivered. "Your body... Why's it so icy cold?" I didn't respond. Nor could I. Because, I was truly dead.
