Had a ton of bricks just smacked him in the gut? Or was his mind telling him things that weren't true? His imagination had gotten carried away before . . .
He flipped quickly to the part of the journal where that conversation took place. He stared at the page for a few moments and then looked up at her. "This-You're-" He looked down again. "Wait you- I was talking to you." This made things a whole lot more exciting! Truthfully he was going to lie and say he was Zeus, because he had at least heard of him and he was a king and all. Linus felt like a bit of an ass though, he had been rather rude mostly because he thought it was a conspiracy.
"You know . . . I"m sorry, I thought this was all from this post man who I met the other day, and he was tricking me- . . ." He paused for a second as a thought crossed his mind. "You know he wrote back to me in this journal . . ." He wondered now if he had met more people. "I wonder who he really is."
Now maybe that explained all of those dreams about flying and shooting stuff, or killing people. "I remember in the book store you said something about my name being a son of Apollo, and he killed him for being better or something-," He shook his head. "I mean the point, did you know you were Athena? Or did you get your journal a year ago or something and research? You DO have a journal right?" Now he was just going off.
