Chapter 44- Ashley's Secret Reveal?

Sam's POV

After finishing my homework, I get out of my room getting a drink of water. I grab a cup and fill it with water. As I take a sip, I spotted Mark and Amy talking to each other. I couldn't help it but smile, knowing that they will be a good couple and live happy. However, I can feel fear and pain inside of me. They somehow remind me of James and Mary. A couple that lives happy together, have a foster child and live normally until Achan killed them in inhumane way.

'I shouldn't worry about that right now,' I thought to myself as I start to think about Ashley. There are some questions in my mind. Most importantly why is Ashley acting this way? She's nice and a good person, but part of me is telling me that she's hiding something.

I finish taking a sip and put the glass of the water in the sink and wash it before heading upstairs. While washing the cup, I start to debate if I should or shouldn't get advice from Mark. I mean he's my dad after all, even though I haven't called him dad yet... Either way, I got some time about this. Maybe I'll ask him for advice before going to school.

~Hours Later...~

I lay down on the bed, staring at the ceiling. I grab my phone and start to text message Ashley.

~Text Conversation Starts~

S: Hey Ash, I want to see how are you doing. I hope you have a good night, Love you!

A: I'm doing okay, thank you for your concern Love J

S: Np ^_^

A: Goodnight Love, I love you <3

S: Love you too <3

~Text Conversation End~

I put the phone down as I lay down on my back staring at the ceiling. "I definitely need get some advice from Mark..." I mumble to myself before shutting my eyes.

~Dream Poem~

I open my eyes

My surroundings are different

It feels familiar yet I've never been here

I know this place doesn't believe in laws of physics

It's fantastically but yet terrifying

Voices lurking in the shadows

I can't seem to understand it

Nor remember it

But I can hear it

Will I remember when I wake up?

~Dream Poem Ends~

I wake up as I can feel my heart pounding against my chest. I couldn't tell if I was having a bad dream or something. The voice sound a bit familiar but I can't put a finger whose voice belongs to or what the voice's last words before waking up. I manage to shrug it off.

~Time Skip~

I stare out at the window trying to gather my thoughts while Mark is taking me to school. The ride is pretty silence which it kind of makes me feel a bit awkward. Until I finally break the silent treatment.

"Mark. What would you do if someone that you care about is acting differently and they claimed that they're okay when you know they're not okay?" I asked looking at him for any guidance.

"Well, the first thing I would do is try to reach out to them. Offer them to hang out or something and maybe try to have a talk." (A.N: I don't know if Mark gives out advice like that, but it's worth a shot and that's my fan education guess :P ).
