being locked up was no fun , even worse being locked up for a crime you didn't commit.

Today is January 12 , 2018 the day they locked me up and accused me of murder four years ago , this day also happened to be the day I turned 18..my birthday.

being locked up people treated you differently, they looked at you as if you were a monster, like their is nothing human about you..maybe they're right.

I close my eyes as I tilt my head up towards the ceiling to calm my breathing preparing my self for the worst when my cell door would open.

Click click click

The sound of footsteps came closer making my anxiety worse.

Their was no clock , no window and your cell door would never open and when it did... you'd always end up wishing it didn't.

I had my fair share of trying to escape the loony bin I always assumed it was the pills and the " treatment " they gave you that made you crazy. I write everything down so that I don't lose touch of reality like the rest of them, it's scary you know ? To know that you could be sane one day and then the next...not. That's my worst fear , I'm scared I'm going to lose my mind.

A loud bang on my door caused my to jump. I quickly slipped my hand into my dress pocket and gripped the letter opener I had stolen from the mail room during my shift in my pocket , for protection. Sometimes nobody goes back to their cell , they just disappear.

I won't be one of those people. I can't be.

The old metal door screeched open and I masked my face of any sign of fear.. they lived off of fear.

" miss heaven smith , are you awake " one of the male guards standing in the doorway wearing black clothes , almost as if he was going to a funeral asked.

" my eyes are open , aren't they dumbass?" I sarcastically said staring at the wall in front of me.

" you know for someone with the name heaven , you sure are no angel, more like the devil should've named you Satan. " he huffed.

I turned my head to face him , a sly smirk forming. " are you surprised Jim ?"

" your never going to call me by my real name are ya kid , huh ? Your just gonna call me every name in the book besides the name I was born with?" He smirked in amusement yet he's tone and some sort of annoyance in it.

When I didn't answer he sighed " alright kid get up , you know the drill."

I closed my eyes and pursed my lips , hopping if the bed I put my wrist out. " alright Lisa I'm ready to get my brain fried" I joked.

" are you serious?" He asked dumbfounded.

" what?" I opened my eyes and asked innocently, tilting my head.

" you run out boy names and so you start calling me girl names ? Why can't you just have some respect and call me by my own god damn name!! You bring all of the shit you go threw onto your self and then weap in self pity as if it's not your fault your hear in the first place." He said with anger in his tone , I could tell I was pushing my limits all though I didn't care , seeing him mad was fun...sexy even.

God maybe I am going crazy.

" well I'd call you by your real name but I'm doing you a favor because Lucy let's be honest... your real name sucks and if you weren't on your way to bring me to electric shock therapy to have my brain turn to mush, I'd maybe consider feeling sorry for you." I said with a smug look on my face as he growled.

" I am so glad I'm never going to see you again" he whispered under his breathe as if I wasn't supposed to hear it, but i did and I wish I didn't.

I gulped and shifted uneasily. " what?"

" your being released."
