Susie Salmon Being Transparent

If Susie Salmon walked into the room and I saw her for the first time, she would have long reddish hair and be very pale. I would think that she is ill because she is so pale, and she would would be transparent. If I saw her, she would have to be a ghost since she has passed away, and ghosts are transparent. I can see her acting like nothing is unusual and just go sit down with a calm, blank look on her face.
