Joan walks down the hall after 3rd period going to the lunchroom, looking for Grace or Adam or Luke, anybody she knew. From the corner of her eye, she saw a familiar than jacket walking up along side her.

"You can't be here. You aren't real."

"That's your opinion, Joan. Gave you choice and freewill for a reason. But you should know by now I have a bigger plan for you then you can see right now.

"Well now I'm using my freewill. You aren't real. No more assignments, no more "popping, no more metaphors, and no more people thinking I'm crazy. I'm done."

"I think you should help Adam with his anger."

"Hmm....did you just miss my whole little speech?"

"Oh no I heard you. I hear everything all of you say ,even when you don't say it. Like I told you before thoughts are things, too. Don't try to be someone you're not. Your personality is great. If you change anything is should be your attitude."

"Yeah thanks for your little lecture, but I've got to go find my friends." This is the 1st time Joan has walked away from God and not the other way around so there is no God wave.

Finally reaching the lunch room, Joan meets up with her friend and brother, who were also looking for her.

"Girardi, we were looking for you. Where ya been?"

"I was looking for you, too. I just had to take care of something. Have you seen Adam?"

"Yeah, he's over there. You didn't break up with him already, did you? He's all morose."

"No, of course not. He started acting really weird this morning. I need to talk to him." Joan leaves Grace and Luke standing there to go over to the table where Adam is drawing in his sketchbook.

"Hey."

"Hey."

"Are you ok?"

"Sure, Jane. I'm fine."

Joan sits down beside him. Grace and Luke take seats across from them.

"You didn't seem too fine this morning. What's up?"

"Jane.... I'm fine." Adam draws his attention back to his sketchbook. Joan looks up at Grace and Luke meeting the confusion in all their eyes.

Just then Elizabeth walks in the lunchroom. Joan sees her from far away. "Elizabeth," She calls "over here."

Elizabeth gladly accepts and comes to their table.

"Liz ,this is my best friend, Grace and her boyfriend, my brother, Luke."

"Nice to meet you." Liz turns to Adam. "Those pictures are awesome." She says genuinely, hoping to forget everything that happened this morning if he would just talk to her.

Adam looks up at Liz briefly, back to his work, and picks up his stuff to leave. "I've gotta go. See ya Jane." Adam hurriedly leaves the lunchroom.

Liz takes his spot at the table. "Is there something wrong with me? Did I go something?"

"No, Liz there's nothing wrong with you. Something's wrong with Adam. I'm not sure what." Joan quickly replies.

"Yeah, nothing's wrong with you. Rove is just....Rove. Anything could be happening." Grace says. Luke nods in agreement.
