Are you faking a prayer out loud, in her presence, or are faking that you did/will pray but not in her presence?
If it were me, I don't think I could pray aloud in their presence. I could bough my head, close my eyes and fold my hands making it look like I was praying but I would not be able to speak. Maybe she will be OK with you "praying in silence". If she asks if you did/will pray, tell her yes. Pretend. It's not gonna hurt you.
If she asks you to pray for her tell her that you will but you will be praying in your own way, alone, in silence. Comforting but not necessarily a lie.
Best wishes.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
