-Ross's POV-

I laid in my bed, looking up at the ceiling with no emotion whatsoever. The only thing running through my mind was Y/n, and it was for multiple reasons. One of them being the question, Why did Y/n react the way they did that night?

But before I could think of at least pick one of the answers my brain managed to make up a knock was heard

"Come in." I sighed, the door opened but I wasn't bothered to look who it was, knowing my mom was probably the one opening it

"Rossy. Are you feeling any better?" She asked, sitting down on my bed as she patted the top of my head

"Yeah." Was the only thing I could muster up. I heard my mom sigh as I felt the bed shift slightly

I finally turned my head and looked at my mom's worried expression

"You know you can talk to me." She said, grabbing my hand as she started caressing the back of my hand

I let out a sigh as I closed my eyes. I suddenly felt my mom letting go of my hand and heard her walking away. Opening my eyes I saw her looking at me while she held the door handle

"Well, I'll be in the living room if you need anything." She said, before she closed the door I opened my mouth to speak

"Mom." She stopped in her tracks and turned towards me

"Yes Hon?" She asked, leaning on the door frame, I took a deep breath before I started to speak

"Can.. can I ask you something?" I questioned. I saw her getting worried, but she still kept a smile on her face

"Of course." She said. I sat up in my bed as I thought on how to rephrase my question

"Let's say that.. a person started to act strange all of a sudden. Like, when you first met them they were kind and caring and from what you've heard they acted like that to everyone... But.. what does it mean when that person starts acting strangely all of a sudden." I stopped for a second as I looked at my mom, she just nodded for me to continue

"They just always seem on edge and paranoid, always spaced out and just- they aren't themselves and one day they attacked another person for no reason. What does that mean?" I asked, my mom took in a sharp breath as she had an uncomfortable look on her face

"That's a tough one." She laughed, "well.. there could be multiple reasons. If you're going for a serious answer, maybe they have suffered through a lot of mental and or physical abuse and it just started to get to them, but I'm not a professional so I couldn't give you a proper answer. Or if you'd like a more silly answer, maybe a ghost is haunting them." She laughed, I laughed along with her

"But again, I'm not a professional. And is this about one of your friends?" She asked

"Nonononononono, you don't need to worry about that. It's just a question." I shook my hands. My mom sighed and grabbed the door handle
