I open my eyes to darkness like i do every morning but something feels different today , today feels hopefull.

I strech my arms out and reach over to feel an empty space beside me where adrian used to be. Suddenly I feel alone and sad that he left without saying goodbye.

I shake the thoughts from my head because i promised myself i would never get to comfortable with people because everyone always  betrays me one way or another.

I slide off my cot and leap onto the cold cement floor. As I do I catch my reflection in my broken mirror  and I almost scream .My hair is all over the place , my breath smells like something died in it and my eyes are all red from crying in my sleep because of the dream I had.

It's the same one I get every night .....
I'm playing with my dolls when I hear a blood crushing scream ,

I drop my dolls and sprint down the stairs but Nothing could have prepared a 10 year old for the scene I saw in front of me. I drop to my knees as I see my mom lying on the ground soaked in her own blood.

I grab my moms limp limbs and shake her
" mommy , mommy wake up" I say as I sob her . Tears stream down my face as these three men start to take me away.

" wait , wait I need my mommy" I scream as I struggle to get free. " mommy" I whisper as they lead me farther away.

I close my eyes as I recall that day because it's not just a dream it's my mind reminding me why I'm here and why I need to get out.

I open my eyes trying to forget my awful childhood and i go do my daily rountie which  consists of getting changed out of my sweats and t-shirt and into my white crop top and grey leggings.

I always get this weird sensation when I change because I have no where to hide , the Cameras are always watching my every move even when I wish with all my heart they weren't.

I pile up my clothes and  through them into a bin so the maids can come and wash them when im gone. As i go to my tiny sink to brush my teeth i notice an eveolpe beside my door.

Curiosity gets the better of me as I walk over and pick up the letter. I smooth my hands against the soft surface and notice a name across the front ..

In neat writing it says "Sweet cheeks" and I immediately know it's Clyde who gave this to me. I rip open the letter to read.. Dear Carmen,
I'm sorry for upsetting you the other day, I didn't mean anything I said .

I was just mad and I took it out on you and for that I'm deeply sorry. But I got some news , I've been thinking that tonight is the night that you can escape and I will help you. Meet me right after you read this. I will be in my room ,
Clyde.

I fold the letter and put it in my pocket not trusting to keep it in my room. My hands shake in disbleive, he's actually going to help me escape.

I have been dreaming of this day since they first put me in this cell . Ever since they took me to the yearly draining.

It's time to get revenge .I turn the knob with determination and slowly open the door expecting alarms to go off as soon as i do but nothing happens so i take my first steps of soon to be freedom and silenlty run down the hall towards my only ticket out of here.

Short and boring chapter.
My next chapter is full of twists and betrayal and I promise it's action packed with a hint of romance.
~Hope you enjoy my book:)
