Chapter 14

"Drake?"

"Yes?"

"Do you love me?"

"You know I do."

"What is Truth to you?"

"I don't know."

"Do you love her?"

"I don't know."

Drake.

Yes?

Do you love Truth?

Why do you ask again?

Because I know you do.

How would you know that?

I can see into your heart, your dreams. You dream of the angel practically every night, your heart pounds at the thought of her.

Yes...

Then why do you lie to yourself and marry Leanne?

Because Truth does not love me.

How do you know that?

Someone like her is not capable of loving someone other than herself, as much as she claims to have a heart.

How do you know she has not changed?

Because I know her.

Do you?

I think I do... I haven't been focusing on her much lately.

Why so unsure, Drake? Do you even know yourself? How do you know that you will be happiest with Leanne?

I suppose I don't. Who are you?

Who do you think I am?

I don't know. This is a dream, isn't it?

I don't know. You tell me.

It must be...

Then it is. I have learned enough. I appreciate your time.

Wait, who are you?

I am anything you want me to be. Farewell, for now.
