Moonlit Dreams (PRS)

Grandma Mary picked up a box that she had been having next to her seat. She put in on the table in front of the two girls.
"This one is very different from my past stories." She explained. "I also ask of you to not open the box until I'm finished telling the tale."
"Of course." Rosanna said with a nod.
Mary then straightened her back and cleared her throat.
"The story goes like this..." She said. "Many, many years ago, a young woman and her dog were out walking. They suddenly came across a lake and for some reason, the dog started acting strange. The dog barked and barked, and as the woman leaned down to calm him down, she saw something in the water. It was a green jewel. She wondered if it was valuable and picked it up. However, as her skin touched the jewel, everything got black. She felt as if she was choking at first, then as if she was drowning. Once the darkness cleared up, she was no longer at the lake. Her dog was gone and she had no idea where she was. She panicked as she noticed that the jewel was nowhere to be seen either. Swiftly, she began to study her surroundings. She appeared to be in the middle of a grand forest. Everywhere she looked she saw trees."
Rosanna discreetly glanced over at the box. She wondered what it had to do with grandma Mary's story.
"The woman started running, trying to find a way out of the green forest. Once she got out, she saw a village, and beyond the village she saw a city. A city with a castle." Mary continued. "She made her way to the village where she then lived for a couple of days, trying to figure out what had happened to her. Then one day... It all made sense. She had been transported into another world. After figuring that out, she left the village and walked to the city. There she met a handsome warrior that she fell in love with and they lived happily ever after. The end."
Rosanna gasped.
"Wait, what?" She said. "That's it?"

Evelyn was also surprised over Ma's story. However she didn't really understand it so much.
"I don't get it Ma " said Evelyn confused.
she then looked at the box.
"And what does the box have for meaning in your story? I mean you didn't say anything about a box. " " said Evelyn curious.

Grandma Mary stood up and began walking towards the kitchen. She was smirking.
"Why don't you open it up and figure it out for yourselves?" She said and left the room.
Rosanna was utterly confused. She stared at the box, trying to make sense of it all.
"Should we do it?" She asked. "Open it up, that is."

Evelyn started to think.
"well we maybe should" she said and started to open the box.
Evelyn was allways curious about everything so she was very excited. When Evelyn opened the box she looked on what was inside. Evelyn became quiet when she noticed what it was.

Rosanna just gasped as she noticed the green jewel in the box.
"Do you think it's emerald?" She asked. "Or is it jade?"
She leaned closer and studied the jewel.
"Maybe it's just a green stone." She mumbled. "What do we do now?"

"It's so pretty" was the only thing Evelyn could say right know. The Jewel was in a beautiful green color and was so shiny. It was almost like she was hypnotized of the stone.

Rosanna glanced over at Evelyn.
"Woah." She said and grabbed hold of her sister's arm. "What if it's the same jewel from Ma's story?"
She had gotten a bit paranoid. Especially since grandma Mary didn't usually act so cryptic. It was so unlike her to act that way. Still, Rosanna couldn't help but to be interested as well.

Evelyn reacted when Rosanna grabbed her arm.
"but it is so pretty I wanna touch it...ow and it is just a story sis I mean it can't be real." said Evelyn.

Rosanna appeared to think for a moment.
"That is true..." She mumbled. "But Ma acted so weird."
She looked up and towards the kitchen. She couldn't see Mary, but she had to be there somewhere.
"Where did she go...?" She asked herself.

"I don't really know" said Evelyn she tried to take the jewel with her other hand.
"Only thing that I know is that I wanna have a better look at this stone" Evelyn simply said.
