Not the Same

It was evening, and the sun was setting as you drove home. The cool wind against your skin is exactly what you need after a long day of work in the office. As you drive you can't help but look back the past few days. You and Your Wife, Cassie. You both have recently moved into this beautiful 2 story Victorian home. Planning on starting a family here, but Cassie has been different lately. She is constantly tired and drained of energy. You worry about her, is it some Illness or something else. of course your mind drifted to the worst and thought she might be cheating. After all, you're never home. But you shake that thought away, you known Cassie for 6 years, she is not the type of person to cheat no matter what. So what's been eating at her? Is it the pressure of her job at the aquarium?

Cassie's head tilted as she was in the middle of the refrigerator floating there. Her feet weren't touching the ground at all, her arms hung low by her sides and on the floor. Meat.... raw meat from the freezer on the floor, packed open... no, bitten into. Your heart pounded hard against your chest at the sight, you were shocked and couldn't say a word. You watch as Cassie then drops to the floor. You quickly rush over to her, she's still alive but deeply asleep. You carry her back to the bedroom and put her in bed. You lay beside her trying to forget what you saw but simply couldn't. In the morning you wake up and see Cassie is not beside you. As you head downstairs you see her standing in the kitchen, she's cooking breakfast. What do you say to her? After what you have seen last night, she was possessed by something
