After the encounter between the two, Eddie decided that it would be better for them to talk at the morning since it was passed midnight.
In the other day she arrived at his house, Eddie was still with his recovered appearance.

Jannie: Can i enter?

Eddie: Of course.

She walked inside and it wasn't like she would expect, the house was really clean and had some good furniture.

Eddie: Want something? lemonade? cookies?

Jannie: Cold tea please.

Then Eddie walked to the kitchen to prepare it, this gave Jannie some time to see how it's his house and if he have something suspect or menancing.

Jannie: (Let's see...)

Normal couch

'Thump' 'Thump' 'Thump' 'Thump'

She was hitting lightly the wall to see if it had some hollow part, nothing, all clean.

No strange picture or desire for art.

Just a normal house, now for the asking....

Eddie: I'm back!

He appeared with the tea and some extras (sugar, milk, etc.) Jannie picked her cup, but before anything she examined the liquid

No different color
No strange smell
Just a normal tea

It's okay to drink.

Jannie: (Can't be too careful.... !)

One idea appeared in her mind

Jannie: Sorry to ask again!

Eddie: ?

Eddie was paying attention

Jannie: Can we have a snack with the tea? i'm a little hungry.

Eddie: Ah! of course! wait here.

He standed up and walked to the kitchen (again)

Jannie: (Let's see...)

She changed the tea with him to test if it had something inside.

Eddie: Sorry for the wait.

He appeared with some biscuits.

Eddie: You don't have any problem with nuts right? or honey.

Jannie: No, i'm fine.

He sitted and took a sip from the tea.

Jannie: (Looks like it's safe.)

She took a sip and-

Jannie: IT'S GOOD!

Eddie: Oh, thank you.

It tasted with a good balance between the sweet and the bitter. it tasted like coffee but it was not strong, and it felt very relaxing.

Jannie: What is this?

Eddie: Tea?

Jannie: No, what type of tea?

Eddie: It's a recipe, a bit of honey, barley and some others, if you want i can pass it to you.

Jannie: I would love, maybe i can changed the black coffee a bit.

She picked the cookies and took a bite, she thought it would be a normal cookie too but again.

Jannie: WOOOAH! How it's this tasty?!

Eddie: It's handmade, i did it myself.

Jannie: How many things you can cook?

Eddie: Uhmmm.... 1, 2, 3, 4

He was counting his fingers.

Jannie: Don't worry, but i have to ask you something....

Again, Eddie was paying attention.

Jannie: ( I have to ask it.) Do you know anyone with the name Jebediah?

He was looking confused, thinking quite sometime, he really don't look like he-

Eddie: It sounds familiar.... but i can't remember.

Jannie: It's okay, it's just that you and him are very alike.

Eddie: How he looks?

Jannie: He have a short hair, he is tall like you, i don't know if he is buffer than you, but.... wait, how did you get like this?

Eddie: Regeneration.

Jannie: Welp, he looked like he was.... a good man.....

Then one thing happened.

Eddie: Guhg!?

Eddie's eyes were glowing

Jannie: W-W-What is happening?!

Eddie: ........

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!

She got closer to him and was holding his shoulders.

Jannie: What is happening?! Eddie!

Eddie: IT BUUUUUUUUUUUURNS!!!! GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!

He then fell on the ground and was having spasms, he looked like he was in pure pain.

Jannie: Please! you can fight that! come on!

He then stopped and closed his eyes.

Jannie: .....Eddie?

Then he opened his eyes again and he stood up like he was being possessed.

Jannie: Are you there?

Eddie: .......

He was walking to the door.

Jannie: Wait!

She was on the front of the door.

Jannie: Where are you going?!

Eddie: .....

Jannie: EDDIE!! Wh-

He pushed her to the side, his strength is scary, she literally flied to the wall.
He walked off the house while Jannie was knocked out in the wall.

Jannie: E...ddie.......

Why is he like this? why his eyes were glowing?............................ Why he looks like Jebediah?.

Many questions, so little answears................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
