January 23rd

To whoever is reading this, youre not gonna believe what youre about to read. I may have found the reason Ashley has been acting so strangely... and even as I'm writing this, I am shivering thinking about it.

Seriously and I thought I just had the virus to worry about!

You see, the day was going off nicely. I woke up, had breakfast, took Hope for a little walk around the outside since it was finally getting a little warm out, then I had a talk with Ashley, she apologized for slapping me yesterday, I told her it was no problem and asked if she wanted to take a swim in the Hotel pool with me, but she refused and said she had some things to do.

I spent the day watching a couple of old DVDs I found in a few of the empty rooms.

A few hours later... THAT'S when it happened!

I went over to Ashely's room to ask if she wanted to stay at the hotel for a few more days or continue heading to Andrews Villa, but she was already taking a shower.



...yeah... yeah, I peeked. But I didnt see anything! I swear! At least... just her back. Her upper back looked slightly cut open. I swear I saw wires and electrical cords in that very cut!

I still cant believe it. Is...

is Ashley a robot? Is THIS why she's acting so strange? No wonder I never saw her eat anything. No wonder she never wanted to talk about her past. Who or what exactly is she?
I'm getting the feeling there was more going on than a virus outbreak that killed everybody.

Aw man. I'm gonna have a hard time sleeping tonight. Can I even trust her anymore? What if she has her own certain motive for following me? The only... human left on the planet?!

C'mon, Miguel! Snap out of it! She's your friend! So what if she's a robot?
But should I even tell her that I now know what she is?

What if I'm wrong and she DOES have a motive?! She could be programed to kill me for knowing too much! But... but she is my friend! Shouldnt I tell her that I know her secret and that I still love for who she is and not WHAT she is?

I should tell her, right? I can trust her... can I?
