There she sat ,cowering in the corner of her old bedroom of the old farmhouse that was her childhood home .No one heard her screams .There was no one there to help her ,she was all alone ,locked in a battle with the demons of her mind .Demons that possessed her and ones that all the screaming could not rid her of them .No one could hear her screams ,for they were locked away in the deep recesses of her mind mere amusements for those demons.2
Amid those screams ,she could recall the words of her mother in that annoying nasal drone that has grated on her nerves as far back as she could remember ."If you don't stop what you're doing,you're going to kill yourself ." Her reply was always ,"Why is it everytime I try ,it's never good enough ?"The thing was she could never put together what it was she had done that was so destructive ?All she knew was that death would be a welcome guest at this moment .3
As the voices died to a gentle roar ,she looked around at the vaguely familiar yet strange surroundings .This was not the first time she had ended up here but she still couldn't pinpoint the feeling of comfort that this place brought to her .4
"Oh,my God ," she shouted ."This is just too crazy.This does not make any sense .It's impossible! People don't wake up not knowing where they are or how they got there !5
So where are we ? " Even as she asked that question and wondered why she had said we ,she knew there were others .Others that she was certainly losing control to .Others that mimicked her every thought ,her every move .6
The sound of the engine of the car brought her back to reality .She ran to what must have once been a kitchen and proceeded to pull back the tattered remnants of a curtain whose color could no longer be determined .She watched as the door to the stretch limo was hastily opened by the chaffuer .As he stepped from behind the platinum door ,the screams ,the voices ,everything was forgotten .All that was in her world now was the man behind those emerald green eyes that locked on her as she stood mesmerized ,peering through the window .The deja vue was overwhelming .He was her world ,at least until the next time .7
"Hello,dollface!" he called out cheerfully."Have you decided to marry me yet,or do you still cruelly scorn my shameless advances?" As she sheepishly went into his outstretched arms,"I love you ,"she whispered tearfully ." I just want you to be happy ." 8
As she hung her head,her long hair concealing her eyes,as well as the rest of her expression of confusion ,she thought her words were convincing ,she hoped so ,anyway.She also hoped that he would love all of them .9
