It was midnight. Jack went to a party with Sally, his girlfriend. While he was saying hello to his friends, Sally started dancing in the middle of the room. She seemed light and her hair was floating, when she turned on that music's rhythm. She was so beautiful. Jack thought that she was the good one. He was starring at her deeply and told the man next to him : « I love her. »

The man frowned and moved away.

Suddenly, someone called John put his arms around Sally's waist. Jack felt anger raising. John was in problem.

The phone rang, Karen woke up and picked it up.

« -Good evening Madam, excuse me but are you Jack Gelligton's mother ?

-Yes, I am. Why ?

-Your son is at the hospital, come quick please.

-Is he alright ?

-Just come. »

Karen took her coat and her keys and started to run to the car. When she arrived, the doctor took her aside.

« -Isn't Sally with you ? » He said.

« -Who ?

-Jack's girlfriend !

-My son doesn't have any girlfriend sir...

-Are you sure ?

-Yes, absolutely.

-But, she's the one for whom he fought.

-He fought ?!

-It's more complicated... He... »

The doctor was interrupted by the screams of a woman.

« -Where is Jack ?! I want to see that guy, right now !

-What the hell ?» shouted Karen.

« -She was at the party, she is John's girlfriend. » said the doctor.

« -Yes, I know her. » replied the mother.

« -I saw your son Karen. He was speaking to himself. He was dancing and taking no one in his arms !

« -He seemed to think he was at the party with a girl. This Sally. But apparently, from what you tell me, she doesn't exist. »

Karen was livid.

« -I... I want to see Jack. »

The doctor inclined the head and entered a long corridor.

« -He jumped on this John, Madam. He was screaming : [Do not touch her]. I was having hope for you son but he will need to stay here. » He said.

At these words, they arrived in front of a large window.

« -You should not pass, I must tell you, he's dangerous... »

 -What are you talking about ? My son would not hurt anyone ! It's stupid! This John is talking bullshit ! 

-Jack killed him. »

Karen saw her son in a rubble room, hitting his head on the wall.
