Petal's Problems
“To which Petal added, "I feel faint!" "Read her mind, Petal," Annie directed. "Tell us what she's thinking so we know what she's up to." But Petal didn't tilt her head to one side as we'd seen her do when reading our minds. Rather, she squinched her eyes shut and began mumbling nonsense words, stringing them all together so it came out sounding something like sgfeuogfgevcsgel. Nonstop.
She didn't tell us what she was doing—she couldn't, because she was too busy babbling nonsense—but we gues...sed she was doing it to drown out all sounds from other people's minds so that she couldn't hear whatever dark and terrifying thoughts lurked in Crazy Serena's.
