I close the door leading to Liam and Noah's playroom.

"Are you ready to talk?" Josh asks even though I have been avoiding him since I woke up.

"No." I say and place a glass in the dishwasher.

"Why." He asks and holds and hand. I jerk away and face him.

"What you did wasn't right."

"But.."

"No buts. I didn't rest enough so I'll be heading to bed." He nods and gets out of my way.

I was running again. This time,it was raining and thunder rumbled in the air.

"Get back here!" Another voice said. This time,even scarier than the last one.

I ran into an old shed and hide behind a hay stack.

It takes a while before I notice a little girl sobbing beside me.

"Hey" I say and tug at her a bit. She lifts her head and a wave of fear washes over me.

It was me..as a little girl but my eyes were bleeding and my face was busted.

"He's coming." She says and points.

I feel a staggered breath  hit my back and I close my ears in fear.

I feel a sharp pain at the back of my head and everything turns black.

___

I wake up with a yell and once again my hair is wet and matted with sweat.

Why was this happening to me?

I place my face in my palms and she'd silent tears.

I hate this.

I hate myself.

"I miss you mom." I whisper with tears.

I miss my mother terribly.

She would've been here if it wasn't for that monster.

She would've seen her grandkids.

She would've seen her daughter become a doctor.

I cry a bit more when suddenly my phone buzzes.

Elron.

The caller ID reads.

For some reason,I'm happy to hear from him.

"He-hello?" I say with a hoarse voice.

"Are you okay?" He asks with a raspy voice.

I blush and shudder with a silly smile on my face.

"Yea,I am. I just miss my mother." I tell him honestly.

"Claire.." he says and stops.

"Hmm?"

"Can we meet up? My place." He says and I smile even wider..

"Okay." I say and cut the call.

Right after he cuts the call, Tristan calls me.

"Hi." He says and I take my time before responding.

"Hi. It's been a long time since we talked." I say. I totally forgot about him.

"Yes,sorry I've been caught up with work." He says and I smile.

I like this awkward tension between my and my dad...wow it feels weird to say it though.

"Claire,please be careful." He warns.

"Why?"

"I don't want to scare you but Felix,he's back."

He says and my heart skips a beat.

He's back?
