*A/N: Quick update isn't? Well it's because I didn't have a writer's block for this chapter. I'm just so eager to finish this story because I have a new idea for my new story but I am not sure if I'm really going to work on the new one for I'm feeling so lazy.

Anyways, I received some reviews from *confused* anonymous readers. Yes, Faith is Rory...didn't you guys read every chapter since the accident happened? I thought it would make sense but if it didn't, then ask me and I'll explain. About her sickness and why she's still alive, I will explain it later on in further chapter so kindly be patient with me. Hope you would like this chapter my fellow readers. God bless. - Nina*

The next day when Faith woke up, she heard laughter. She got up and stretched herself before heading for the shower and few minutes after she's done taking a shower and dressing up, she went to the living room finding Jess and Rob with gathered pictures on the table

"hey guys," she greeted them

"oh hey Faith, come here and look at this," Rob smiled. Faith came closer and Rob showed her a picture of him and Jess when they were younger

Faith smiled at the picture, the two of them were grinning ear to ear like naughty boys

"very naughty," she complimented

"hehe," Jess laughed

"so I guess you guys are catching up old times again?" she said

Jess and Rob nodded their head, "yeah, old pictures and new pictures. We share special bond here, we need to know everything," Rob added with a grin

"nice," Faith smiled and looked down on the table and a picture caught her attention, she frowned at its familiarities and she picked it up, examining it as well

A girl with long brown hair and blue eyes, a woman with the same hair and eyes, a man with a cap and flannel, an Asian looking girl with glasses, a chubby woman with make up and jewelries, a short woman with a tall guy and a cat in his arms, and an aged guy with a beard were sitting altogether at front of the gazebo.

Lorelai

Luke

Lane

Ms. Patty

Babette, Morey and Cinnamon

Taylor

Faith's eyes widened and dropped the picture when the name of those people came to her head. And the girl with long brown hair and blue eyes made her stare at her for a long time

"Faith?" Rob frowned

she didn't stop staring at the picture, Rob shot a worried glance at Jess but Jess only turned out to be watching Faith's reaction. He didn't purposely put that picture there but he was glad but not too glad that it will cause her more frustration and confusion.

"Stars Hollow…gazebo…taken 3 years ago…" Faith muttered and was surprised to hear herself saying that. And Jess wasn't expecting that she would remember the three w's. (what, where, when)

"huh?" Rob was puzzled

Faith continued to look at the other pictures, she found another. The picture of a diner that says Luke's.

I need coffee!

Luke's?

Sure!

"no…" Faith shook her head and turned on her heels and ran out of the house

"what's wrong with her?" Rob asked as he picked up the pictures she was staring at earlier

Jess shrugged

"what's with Faith? Is she in a hurry?" Dr. Sean came into the room and saw pictures

"I see, you guys are catching up the old times," Dr. Sean said and frowned at one picture

"who is this?" he asked, "and is this you?"

Jess looked at the picture, it was a picture of him and Rory reading a book by the bridge

"yeah that's me and that's Faith,"

Dr. Sean didn't move, he wasn't sure what he was hearing

"what?" Rob said

"the reason why she ran is she remembered something when she saw those pictures…" Jess explained

Dr. Sean frowned and sat down on the table, "so you know who she is?"

Jess slightly nodded his head, "yes…she's Rory Gilmore,"

"wait a minute…how could you be sure that she's Rory Gilmore?" Rob asked,

"when your dad told me that he found her outside Hartford a year and a half ago, a year and a half ago, an accident was occurred outside Hartford and the time when we were told that she was found dead,"

Dr. Sean looked down on the picture. He remembered the way she looked when he found her. Wounded with cuts and her long brown hair was badly burned. He tried to imagine her in a clean state and it pretty much ensembles to the girl he's seeing in the picture.

"dad?" Rob said,

"she looks like her…how long have you known Jess?" he asked,

"when you told me about her," he said. Dr. Sean nodded his head and rubbed his temple,

"when are you going home?" he asked,

"tomorrow…"

Dr. Sean paused for few seconds before speaking again, "take her with you,"

"what?" Jess frowned, "don't you think it's a sudden?"

"the sooner, the better," he said

"will Faith agree on this?" Rob asked

"I'll talk to her," his dad said

Jess shrugged, "I don't want her to suffer…it's a small town and everyone knows each other. If they see her, it won't be good for her…it would be too much for her…"

"that is how it's supposed to be…even if it would make her suffer…I don't like the idea of making her suffer but that is how it will bring every memories back to her…"

"then can I just keep her inside first?" Jess asked

"are her parents around?"

"they are in Europe, will be back in three days,"

Dr. Sean nodded his head, "just do anything that will help her, and if she does, then she stays there…where she belongs…"

"Who am I?" Jess was startled when Faith appeared in his room later that day

"Faith…"

"I'm Rory, isn't it?" she said

Jess said nothing

"so I am Rory…"

"yes you are…" Jess said

"at least it is good to know who I am now…" Faith said sadly and sat down on his bed

"Jess…Sean told me about everything…I didn't like it but I thought about it…"

"I'm sorry, I know it's a sudden," he shrugged and sat beside her on the bed

Faith faced him and looked into his eyes

"Dodger…"

Jess smiled, "you called me that before…"

"I figured…what do we have, Jess?" she asked

"we're just friends…like sibs…"

Faith nodded her head, "but still a stranger to me…"

Jess chuckled, "well, time will change that since you'll be hanging around with me from now on,"

She smiled at him sadly, "I don't want to leave Rob and Dr. Sean…"

"you can come back and visit them anytime you want,"

"I'm scared now,"

"don't be scared…we're all here for you," Jess said comforting her

Faith's eyes widened when she remembered hearing that

I don't want to be scared anymore...

don't be scared Rory…we're all here for you

and I was so scared of hurting the people I loved, I have kept it away from them for so long…my parents and grandparents know of course…but my friends…

I miss Tristan

"flashback?" Jess guessed, she nodded with a frown on her face

"it's okay…"

Faith shook her head, "who is Tristan?"
