I blacked out once again, awaking disoriented. I didn't remember much about what happened before. It was all just a blur. I remembered a hospital room, a nurse, Mia and Chester.
It took me a few minutes to realize I was back home, in my bed, and I could feel the sheets sinking in as if someone were lying next to me. When I rolled over to look, Anna was laying there, asleep, peacefully. I got up and went to the kitchen, where Chester was sitting on a chair in the kitchen as if he were a person.

"Was it true?" I asked.

"Would I have any reason to lie?" He asked.

I sat down across from him and set my hands on the table, trying to stay calm.

"Listen to me you motherfucker, I don't know what kind of fucked up world you grew up in, but you're in my world now. I'm asking you a simple question, answer it." I said, trying to keep my voice calm.

He leaned in and looked me straight in the eye.

"I did. Why would I have any reason to lie? That's like a straight slap in the face that yes, it's true. Dumbass."

"Why. That's all I want to know. Why.
If you wanted me to preform with you so bad you could have given me a reason to want to instead of taking my reason away."
