Tell me what's wrong!

"Lindy? Jack?" Finn called out slowly staring at them as though he wasn't sure if they were.

They both moved closer to him next to the hospital bed in a single ward, just for him. They both looked at each other before turning to him. They contemplated who would be the first to ask or apologize or at least say something because he still looked strange, it was more like their friend had been captured and this was just another imposter. Finna lifted his body until his was seated still looking in their direction.

"Why are y'all staring at like that? Why am I even on this bed...shouldn't we be in school?" He asked looking around as he tried to really decipher their expressions, it was confusing.

"You mean...you mean you don't remember?" Lindsey asked

"Nothing at all?" Jack added you get question then Finn shook his head negatively.

"Wait...what...what are you talking about? I mean I got off detention and headed to my locker and that was it!"

"That was what?" Jack asked

"I don't know. I don't know nothing! Maybe you wanna tell what happened?"

"Or you wanna tell us what fuckin happened back there? You passed out like OUT and here you are acting as though you know nothing? This is ridiculous!" Lindsey stated as she placed get hands flat on her forehead and moved away because she seemed pissed.

"How was it my fault that I don't remember anything," Finn questioned, he too was getting pissed.

"You got time remember because its your thing. Like you were the actor in the movie scene," she blurted out as jack called out her name to stop her, she was losing it and so was she speaking nonsense

"Is that what you think that I actually got this going on somehow? " Finn raised his voice "You know I'm beginning to think that you are real not Lindsey, you are someone else. I don't know you, I don't trust you and I never will." He stated

"Is that it? After the shit we've been through, we...I tried to save you life back there...you know I'm beginning to think that you are a major psychopath! Every time we try to help you get better you always have or find a way of pushing the blames on someone. Nothing is ever enough for Finn, nothing is!" She stated then took up her backpack to leave. "You are a piece of and good luck with your horrid specters!" She snapped then walked out instantly.

Finn turned away from the direction of the door and buried his face into his hands and rubbed it. He lifted his head up to Jack's fixed gaze and asked

"Ain't you leaving too? I'm used to everyone leaving," Finn blurted without remorse

"You have a better way of speaking to me. Literally I'm not Lindsey, speak maturely!" Jack inquired dropping on the chair next time the bed

"What's that suppose to mean,"

"Whatever you think it is just do it!" Jack said the Finn remained silent realizing that Jack still the whole time and apologized.

"Finn you are gonna have to learn to control your anger and your fear. These two things are making you insecure and that is what whatever it is that's scaring you is feeding on. Your fuckin FEAR!" Jack advised seriously

"I know right?! How do I get rid of something I don't know?" He inhaled and exhaled and turned his head to Jack. "I don't know what's happening Jack, I'm not normal. Nothing around me is normal---" He looked worried

"But you got us. Your mother. We are normal." Jack said

"I want to believe that but I'm sorry I can't,"

"Keep trying Finn,"

"I CAN'T!" Finn yelled out. He took didn't know what came over him, he immediately apologized for his behaving and jack tried to understand, at least it wasn't a time to be angry.

"Learn to control it! You might lose your mind bro that's not good. The mental asylum ain't a place to live in." Jack reminded calmly. Finn nodded lightly giving a deep thought once more.

He could remember opening his locker, then the postcard that had weird inscriptions on it, then the weird ghost lady he saw. He tried to narrate the whole story to him regardless and Jack looked confused and worried and somewhat scared.

"She keep calling me, she keeps reminding me that I'm chosen..."

"Chosen for what?" Jack asked

"Beats me! I really don't know Jack,"

"We need to find a solution! Have you told your mother?" Jack asked Finn nodded negatively. "Finn she needs to know everything. She's your mother,"

"I don't want her to get too worried and besides she might not understand a thing!"

"Keep trying,"

"Jack, I know what I'm talking about. Why do you think she opted a doctor? She didn't understand that doctors can't help." Finn stated then looked away

"You're not alone Finn, we'd find help."

"How?"

"We'll try!" Jack snapped

Then the door opened, the doctor walked in with Finn's mother, she looked concerned. Immediately she sighted him, she ran to him and embraced him tightly yet warmly. She cupped his face and said

"I was worried about you,"

"Uhm...me too!" He wasn't sure what time say but he did say something. She turned to Jack and smiled at him with an appreciative stare.

"Hi Ms Carmen!" Jack greeted

"Thanks Jack, this means a lot to me." She said heartily then placed his hand into her shoulder lightly

"He's like a brother to me!"

"Alright!" The doctor interrupted their that seemed like a reunion. "According to the tests we ran, Finn is perfectly fine,"

"We watched him pass out," Jack retorted

"I was coming to that!" The doctor said since felt overridden. "The passing was a result of fear, it was too much for him to handle but not to worry, he'll be fine. Its nothing serious...but try to avoid being too scared or you might wanna cut down horror movies too?! Just a suggestion but would be helpful!" He forced a smile

"He sees..." Jack was about to say something as Finn interrupted instantly

"I will do just that." Finn retorted. What on earth would be cut down when he sees everything in reality, nothing was make believe but not even the doctor would understand. Carmen followed the doctor since he demanded to see her, they watched them leave before Finn decided to speak.

"Don't bother explaining, he would not understand!" Finn advised

"Fine. I just thought it would help!" Jack added in slighted disappointed and Finn could not help but worry too.

"I'm gonna have figure this out!" Finn says underneath his breath.
