After a week, her condition kept worsening. She sat on her bed. She kept losing more and more weight. Eric warned her about the mediation's side effects and the consequences of a potential withdrawal if she stopped taking them, but her answer was just mocking him in a voice that sounded nothing like Eric's.

"Maybe you just need to give yourself some time, you can't expect Dr. Li and the medication to do all the work you know, you gotta make an effort and work towards recovering", said Eric.

"It's not as easy as you think it is" said Anna.

"Weeping and starving yourself are not going to bring Spencer back. All I've seen you doing for the last two weeks is crying and going online, how are you suppose to recover? You don't eat, you barely get any sleep, I have to beg you to take your medication, you generally look distracted. The guy's a douche, he does not deserve you." said Eric

"I'm sorry" said Anna crying.

"I am sorry too, we will make it through this, I promise. Hey, I will get us something to eat. How does magic salad sound for dinner?, how about you take a nap and I'll call you when I got the food" said Eric trying to cheer her up.

Anna nodded. She grabbed her computer and logged into that site again. Dylan's posts kept randomly appearing in her profile and many of her pictures. She still had nothing from Spencer though. No messages, no texts, no posts. Funny how all of a sudden she was no longer important. All those online conversations, random calls to say "I miss you" and "Have a good day", future plans.

Her eyes kept feeling heavy but she blamed it on the medication. So she decided to just lay down for a couple of minutes, trying to analyze where she went wrong, maybe she was a little bit too unintelligent, a little bit too chubby for the modern beauty standards, a little bit too "ethnic" perhaps. Her eyes kept feeling heavier and heavier.

OUCH .."yelled Anna"

Last time she fell out of her bed was years ago, when she was seven and even then she had an excuse. But this time ..it was different. As she was still on the floor, she felt something weird, her bedroom's walls started to look like if they were melting, she slowly stood up, the way she saw herself sleeping on her bed completely shocked her.

"I'm here, how is this physically possible?.." she said

"You're safe" ..said a voice.

She was motionless and speechless. There were no words to describe the current situation. What was "Dylan" doing there? in her room.

"You're not..."

"Real?"..

"Well, I am...and all of this is..just".."Eric said that"..Anna felt lost for words.

"I am as real as you want me to be Anna. I'd never hurt and I want you to know that no matter how much you try to blame yourself over this, this was Spencer's decision, not yours. It was about time that he realized that you are too good for him. You're wonderful and he was not able to realize that" said Dylan.

"What is really happening? How is this even possible" asked Anna nervously.

"You need me, and I will not leave you" said Dylan.

All of a sudden she heard a beeping. She opened her eyes and realized she found herself back in her bed with a sore knee. The whole thing was starting to not make sense at all (Which did not surprise her, nothing was making much sense to her those last few days), what just happened with Dylan seemed to be a dream, but why was her knee hurt? The notification sound in her laptop could have been real though. She decided to check her messages. She couldn't believe she had one new message.

"It could be from Spencer! she said" She opened and couldn't believe what she was reading:

This is going to be weird, as I don't know you, and I know you probably think very little of me (as the slutty one and what not) but I think the only way I can understand what's going on is to talk to you. And I want you to know the truth because having learned more about him, I don't know how much of that you got.

Yes, I slept with Spencer on the first night, but in my defense, he told me you were over and he was looking for a relationship. The way he made it sound was the only way I could have him, was if I made that plunge and showed my commitment by sleeping with him. Contrary to his belief, I would've never done it if I had known you two were still together. In fact over the time he had been playing me up to sex, I hadn't responded at all, because I thought he was still with you. The night we finally did it, he even asked me why I hadn't made a move yet. He initiated everything, and now is throwing it all back in my face. I found out the next day, by accident, that he had still been with you and only tried to break up with you by telling you we'd had sex. I don't know how much of that is true anymore.

I don't know what lies he told us about each other, or even what lies he told you, but I know the ones he told me; like over and over he would never hurt me or be like all the guys I'd known before, who were selfish and only wanted sex and had hurt me. But that's exactly what he had done. He told me he could love me and take me for who I was but the longer we are together the more the tries to push me to be someone he knows I can't be. He says he knows what he wants that will make him happy and he can find that, that everyone had a perfect person for them, and that I'm immature to believe that isn't true and someone always has to compromise. On the other hand he wants me to compromise and he won't give the slightest inch. He says if I love him and want him enough I'll do it – but I don't see how that's fair for me.

Listen I know you don't want to hear all this. I'm just so confused right now. I know he's gotten back in touch with you and he says he can have you back if he wanted. I wanted to hear from you the truth on that. Could he have you back? Do you even want him back? I don't know what to do. I care about him but I don't like knowing he's trying to play us both of us at the same time, thinking only of himself, to end up with his best chance. I feel like he's trying to keep us both open as options til he sees what happen, and I want him to just pick one. I think that;s the only fair way for everyone. If you reallt don't want him, I'll do my best to go for it and make him happy. But if you do, please just tell me, and I'll step anyway. I'm so sorry for even doing this is the first place. I didn't know, or I wouldn't have done this to you. I'm sorry I believed him and thought he wanted anything more that night than just sex.

I'm sorry

Tracy.
