They are haunting me, making me a liar.”He stood there within the door while the words were whirling around in his mind. He was startled out of his reverie when a hand touched his arm firmly.“It’s time that we talk, brother in law.”Peter looked into the very serious face of Charlie Hoffman.

Sammy was in her workshop drawing images that flow from her mind. Everything was dark and sinister. Peter took David by the arm and led him into the small kitchen. He left the door ajar wanting to keep an eye on her.“What do you know?”“Sammy is a very private person. You are very close to her. Watch her, listen, guard, you’ll know what to do.

Closing it he locked it hearing the bolts shut into place. Looking at the door a worry builds inside of him. Turning he faced her. She had climbed so silently from her hiding place. “Am I deluded?” Peter walked over to her. He took her by the hand and led her to the bed making her sit on top while he knelt before her. “Love, I gathered at first that you didn’t recognize me. Instinctively though you did know me. Deluded you are not. For some reason or another someone in this house are playing tricks on you.” He kept his tone soft and even wondering absently if the room wasn’t bugged by chance. “Why would it be done?
