Hayden~

I looked through the window realizing he isn't driving the right way to the Buffet. The rain becomes harder as I hear the sounds of it splashing harshly against the car. I bit my pointer finger and my eyes raced through the passing trees and objects from outside

I look over at him curiously as he's tensely focused on the road, keeping his eyes on it. "Michael, where are we going?" I repeated, giving him a dry look and he didn't even glance at me

I start to notice that we're now on a highway. "Just wait and you'll see." he says with not much emotion. I furrowed my brows a little and dropped my hand into my lap "You said we were going to the Chinese Buffet." I complained. I was genuinely excited

He smiles that weird smile again, turning up the music on the radio. He sways his head to the rhythm of it, starting to hum along to it.

"Michael are you listening? Where are we going?" I exclaimed and he slowly turns his head to me, with an unfamiliar look in his eyes, not his infamous crazy eyes—it's a different one. One that gives me even more chills at the fact that I've never seen this look he's giving me

"They tryna take you away from me Hayden. Tryna leave me all alone. I can't have that. You know that." he seethes gripping the steering wheel so hard, that his hands began to turn almost white. He isn't himself and it was obvious to me

I looked down for a second and took in his words carefully. Did he hear our conversation?

I pursed my lips and looked back at him. "What are you talking about?" I asked. "You sound delusional." I muttered the last part quietly because he really knew what he was talking about and obviously heard the conversation in the kitchen

He chuckles a little, shaking his head.
"Whatever you say." He said. I looked around, as now I dont even see street signs or billboards around anymore. It's like he's taking me to nowhere

I nervously looked around again and began to bite my pointer before exhaling.  "Can we stop the car Michael?" I ask. He ignores me and proceeds to hum to the song playing on the radio

"Can we stop the car?" I repeated a little louder and he cuts his eyes over to me and slows the car down a little. "Hayden, you gotta just go along wit' me. I ain't tryna do nothin' drastic. If you fail to, I'll have no other choice but to...resort to other solutions. So relax." He said almost too calmly but his words were tight.

At this moment I dont see my Michael, I see some other one that I've never seen before. He drives to the normal speed again and exhales through his nose. I dont know where he's taking me. And I dont know what to do at this point

I take out my phone, and immediately he sees me do so. "Hayden...you better not be plannin' to do nothin' on that phone." He said, his eyes were dark as I glanced at him— afriad of what he might do to me, I gulp and put my phone away.

I sit down and relax myself looking out the window again. I bit my pointer finger to relax myself and calm myself down a bit more. It brings me at ease. I rested my cheek onto the palm of my hand and I never once looked at him as he proceeded to drive. I'm scared yes, but showing it isn't going to help.

"Almost there." he says and he smiles a little, that same weird smile, and sways his head to the music once more. I gulp again, shifting in my seat. I dont see any other cars passing by as of now. We're getting farther and farther away from where we live

"Michael?" I ask, building up the courage to speak again, maybe to make him snap out of it. I'm not sure when or how he'll get back to his normal self but I want to try to make it possible. Maybe he'll come to his senses soon
