Journal 162

It has been a strange day. For one thing, it has been raining on and off all morning and the sun is shining. Secondly, I have the feeling a couple of people are trying to play with my mind. I dropped by the cafeteria in hopes of finding an apple in the food stores when I ran into Yates and Tony sitting at one of the tables. I couldn’t hear what they were saying but they were both chatting away. It looked as if they were enjoying themselves. They both acknowledged me as I walked into the room. Yates stood up from the table, gave Tony a handshake, and then walked out of the room but not before giving me a small kiss on the cheek as he passed by. I appreciated the kiss, but it felt a bit odd with Tony sitting there. Tony didn’t seem upset about it.

Tony smiled at me and said he would stay and keep me company but that he had to go see a couple of people about a football game. I inquired about “what football game?” but Tony didn’t answer.  He was in a hurry. He also kissed me on the cheek as he walked out. I stood there in the middle of the room slightly confused and wondering exactly what happened in my absence. I am certain Yates and Tony are up to no good.

I walked out of the cafeteria without a snack. I made it all the way up to my room before I realized I was still hungry.
