Bernice’s head was in tears. How could her body think such a cruel prank was okay?
‘I’m really sorry! I didn’t think you would take it so seriously. If I were in the same situation, I would be laughing my butt off.’
“At least you have a butt!” Her head retorted, “Do you have any idea how helpless I am? A bird nearly fed me to her kids for Christ’s sake! Can you please just be a bit more sympathetic?”
Bernice’s body was silent. ‘Wow … I didn’t think about it like that … I guess I’m sorry?’
“Good!”
Bernice, head and body, just remained there for a moment. Her tears were drying up, while her body nervously waited for whatever she would say next.
“C-c-could you take me to my room? I want to go to bed,” her head eventually commanded.
After her body brushed her teeth, the two crawled into bed, taking their normal place in how she would sleep with her head attached. “Do you think?… Just for tonight … you could … hold? … My head?”
‘Sure. Don’t worry about it.’ Her body replied. The two consciousness then fell asleep, her body hugging her head underneath her breasts.
