Maya's Hart

Chapter 49

Maya's POV:

"I'm going out again." I yell through the other room.

"Where?" Riley asks.

"To the bakery. I need to have another talk with that Feeny guy."

"Why?"

"I have some questions that need to be answered. You coming with?"

"No thanks. I feel very light headed."

"Maybe you should eat then."

"I'm not hungry."

"How can you not be hungry?!"

"I'm just not!" She yells.

"You're fucking thinner than a stick. You can't even get up on your own!"

"Whatever."

"We'll finish this when I get back." I throw as much clothes on her as possible. It's supposed to be extremely cold today.

I run down to the bakery. I quickly open the door.

"You! Sit!" I shout, pointing at Feeny.

"Oh alright." He sat in a booth and I sat across from him.

"Who are you?"

"George Feeny. I though we settled that yesterday."

"No. I mean, what do you do? Why have I heard of your name before?"

"Before I answer that question, I have a few questions that need to be answered as well."

"Alright fine."

"Where's your girlfriend?"

"In the abandoned church up the hill. Why?"

"Why isn't she with you today?"

"She hasn't been feeling so well lately."

"And you left her alone?"

"There's nothing much I can do even if I stayed with her."

"Why's that?"

"She completely refuses for me to help her."

"That doesn't mean you just leave her!"

"Well, she refuses to eat. The best I've done is made her drink at least a sip of water everyday."

"Well a human cannot survive without food, are you both crazy!?"

"Did I answer all your questions?"

"Yes."

"Then answer mine."

"I used to be a teacher."

"Really?"

"Yes. May I order something for you?"

"Sure."

"And what on earth are you wearing? Don't you know today is supposed to be really cold?"

"I don't have any other clothes." I say, staring down at my t-shirt and jeans.
