Dylan awoke feeling groggy and tired, yet felt an unexplainable peace at
the same time. It was weird. She looked around her bedroom. Sunlight trying
to fight it's way through the closed blinds. If she opened them, the room
would be flooded with such a blinding light that she would have to cover
her eyes for a moments time in order to see clearly. She rolled over and
looked at the clock. It read 11:05. Had she gone to bed that late? she wondered. Then she remembered the previous night. She had fallen asleep on the couch, not the bed. She thoroghly remembered being so tired that she just crashed on the couch and fell asleep while watching T.V. Either that
had happened or she had just been so exhausted that she didn't remember getting up and walking into her bedroom. She must have been really really tired if she couldn't remember doing that. It was the only explaination.
But she remembered. She remembered feeling so tired. How could she have
possibly had enough energy to walk herself into her own bedroom without
even knowing it?
After a while, she figured that it didn't really matter. She had just been to tired to remember last night's events and that was all there was to it. Whilst she lay there in her bed pondering on what she should do, she began to think abut Anthony again. Somebody needed to tell Mother Superior about what happened. It was wrong for them not to know. He was practically one of their own children. Yes. Today would be a very good day to drive up to the orphanage. It was a long drive without the boat. A 3 hour drive to be exact, but she didn't mind. She needed the fresh air anyway. This made the 6 hour long drive there and back not seem so long.
An then there was this one question that kept pondering in the back of head. How in the world had she fallen for the THIN MAN? How? If she would have known about that while she was fighting him in the allyway on the Knox case, she probably wouldn't have kicked him so hard in the stomach. Ooh. She felt a little guilty for that one. 'Well, he had that one coming. That one time anyway.' She couldn't explain all of her immediate feelings that she had for him. She barely knew him. She didn't know him. And this wasn't exactly a love at first sight thing. So...how could this be? She smiled to herself at the sudden relization of her love for him, but her smile faded immediately as soon as she relized what she was supposed to do that day.
She had to tell the nuns about Anthony. About how he..........
"Oh Damn." she said aloud. "Well there goes what could have been." She grabbed a quick shower, dressed and ate a little something before leaving a message on her answering machine saying not to call that day due that she
wouldn't be home. She also put in that it would be wise not to try and reach her on her cell phone. It would be turned off. She needed to be alone today. She got into her car and sped out of her driveway and down the road.
