A much younger Flicker, the same age as Connie, looked up at the stars. She wore the same flamey dress, but she was different in a lot of ways. To start, her hair and eyes were brown like Connie’s, and her features weren’t nearly as sharp as they were now.

I could hear someone singing Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star behind her. Flicker turned, and the singer was a girl about my age. She had long, straight red hair and a beautiful voice.

“If you please,” Flicker said in a voice that lacked Connie’s monotone, but had the same light English accent. “What is that?”

The girl stopped. “The song? It’s a nursery rhyme. Parents sing it to kids.”

Flicker gazed at the stars. “It’s lovely. I should like to know more.”

“Well, there’s a lot of ’em,” the red-headed girl said. “And lots to learn here.”

“Why are you being so nice to me?” Flicker asked.

The redhead shrugged. “Why not?” She smiled and spun, turned into a shining star herself, then shot up into the sky.

Flicker gasped, watching the sky where the girl had gone.

“Why not?” she mimicked the American accent of the girl. Then her hair shifted, straightened, and turned a fiery red. She grew taller, willowy like the girl had been. “There’s a lot of ’em. And lots to learn here.”
