Confusion (4)

Why did she run to the bathroom? What is her problem? I got up and edged my way toward the bathroom. I stood in the hallway, listening, and for the first time in what seemed like forever, I could hear her crying. She was always so serious about everything and I took it to mean she wanted to be strong for me.

"Rose, what's wrong? Is it the gun? I'll leave it with you if you're that worried I'd-"

"It's not that," she snapped back.

"Then...why are you crying?"

"I'm not."

"Well then open up cause I've really gotta go." She opened the door and looked at me, her face not even slightly pink or tearstained. Suddenly her eyes rolled up in her head and she fell. I dropped to the ground and touched her face. "Rose? Can you hear me? Rose!" She finally opened her eyes and said, "I'm fine everything's fine."

"Liar! You just collapsed and you expect me to think you're fine?"

She slowly stood up.

"I just need a good night's rest. I'll be fine tomorrow morning, you'll see."

"Rose."

"Yes?"

"What happened?"

She just kept walking and didn't even look back at me. Darn her. She'll never let anyone help with anything. She never lets other people know when she is hurting. Why? What is going on? Why did she faint? I'm gonna keep my eye on her...
