Sandy's destiny: Faith ? Not real ?

Faith ? Not real ?

I cried for the whole night, I didn't come out of my room for days, well, unless if it was for food, cause me, I need to eat at least every three hours, it's the law that is my body.

Finally, a week later, I had the guts to go see Faith again, I couldn't go to my mom' s house, no, and i think I made that perfectly clear after I didn't answer her phone calls for four days.

So, I went back to the house, I had my stake with me, just in case she would attack me or something.
I walked inside the house, the door made a cracking noise.
It was dark in the house, witch, I guess is normal for a vampire.

I walked into the room where I talked to Faith a week ago, I looked around, but no one was there. The house was empty, abandoned.

And it looked like no one had lived here in years, let alone that anyone lived here a week ago.
The chair I saw Faith sitting in looked the same as the house, as if no one had sat in it for years.
It was covered in dirt, I was loosing my mind, I saw a vampire sit in that same chair a week ago.

Then I heard a peeping sound, I turned around and scared myself half to death.
A rat had jumped from the fireplace.

The whole thing was creeping me out so I went back to the orphanage, where thing got even freakier.

Sister Nadia was sitting in the living room when I got back, she stood up and looked very angry.
"What in heaven's name are you doing out of bed!" she yelled and then touched my forehead, I had no idea why I had to be in bed.
"You're burning up. You have a fever." she said.
Me, have a fever ? I thought; No way, I mean, I felt a bit hot, but how could she know about that, it just came out of no where.

"I... I don't have a fever, and, and if I do, how would you know, I just have it. It's just the flu."
I argued.
"Just got it ? Just a flu ? Young lady, you must be delirious, cause you have been in bed for the last nine days or so, ever since you got that weird sickness. Never mind about any of that now, we have to get you to bed and get a doctor over here right away." Nadia and another sister helped me upstairs into my bed, cause suddenly I felt like I couldn't stand up anymore.

Once in bed I started thinking, wasn't any of it real ? Didn't Buffy die a month ago ? Did she really die when Joyce was eight ? The whole Faith thing, wasn't she real ? Was everything she said not real ? And if that's the case, then what is the deal with Joyce, and how come I've been sick for nine days and haven't known anything about it. And weren't those calls I avoided from mom real ?

This was just to much for me to handle, the possibility that the past nine days were all just a weird dream I had, it was way way to freaky and to much for me, so I let myself fall asleep, after all, I was gonna need it if I were to get better and find out what's happening to me...
