You stare out the window at the world outside, the lush green trees, the flowers beginning to bloom for spring, and the grass you have not touched for so long. The cult members walk through the mountain hideaway they call home, dressed in their long yellow robes and living inside small cottages. They all look so happy, and you wonder if any of them even know about you. You've been here for several weeks, living as a pet for their leader whom they call Father, and not once have you been happy during that time. You've mostly just been scared and homesick.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWZ3o9VkXx
Your life as a pet is very degrading. You aren't allowed on furniture, you're not allowed to speak unless spoken to, and you're not allowed to do anything without the permission of Father, whom you are forced to address as Master. You aren't even called by your name. Instead, you are simply called Pet. Right now you're sitting on the ground inside Father's study, which is in a building known as the Community Center, staring out of the window.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbgBC4uhrg
The study is large and furnished with a desk and chair, some bookshelves with many old books, and that's about it. The door to the room creaks open and Father steps inside, his golden hair and eyes sparking in the sunlight. He walks over to his desk and sees you staring out the window.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReKIGxL2mf

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzJKiEGaZF
He sighs and sits down in his chair. "What is it, child?" he asks, with a tone that makes me feel like he is disappointed in me. "Why are you looking out the window?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2gDblD7yR
"I just want to go home," I say.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFfrT5Chfo
Father sighs again. "Child, I know you miss your home, but we're not going anywhere for a while." He sits back in his chair. I start to cry, and Father stares at me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeobZRuT0AB
"Why are you crying?" he asks, with a small amount of anger in his voice. I cry even harder.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkWJ7rrUzu
Father sighs.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsa2K9i9TP
I say "I don't want to stay here!"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd24LBpC6aK
Father gets up from his chair and walks over to me and kneels down in front of me. I look at the ground and Father grabs my chin and forces me to look at him. I look into his eyes. His eyes are cold, like stone. He stares at me with no emotion whatsoever.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizmz8oda6f
There's no compassion, no sympathy. I'm just a thing to be used. He will use me for his own benefit, and then he will get rid of me. I need to get out of here. I stand up quickly and bolt for the door.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Xw00aP0cA
"Stop!" he shouts, but I already hear his footsteps behind me. I open the door and run out. I run past the cult members, who only stare at me in awe, some whispering among themselves. I run until I come to a large oak tree. I climb the tree, which is only a few feet away from the ground. I find a branch that I think is strong enough to hold me, and climb up.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEdNCVzMI4
I can hear Father's footsteps getting closer. I hide myself in the branches of the tree.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOC61RdVeJ5
Father comes to the tree, his footsteps getting closer and closer to the tree. He stops, staring at the tree.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7HXPBSxE0
"Pet, come down from the tree."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVmEr1zhdp
I stay silent.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNpsP52LPj
"Pet, I know you're in there. Come down from the tree right now or else I won't only punish you, I'll make your siblings suffer too. Do you want that to happen?" I come down from the tree and land on the ground with a thud. Father grabs me, and I struggle against his grip, but I can't escape.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWeducA7WT
"Come with me, child." I am dragged along by Father.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxDrMOoNPQ
I struggle as I walk with him, but I can't get away. We walk for what seems like forever, and then we finally come to a large, circular room. I look around the room. The room is circular, with no windows, and only two doors. One door is at the very center of the room, while the other is at the very edge.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPv2xY7vnt
I struggle against Father, who only laughs at me. I struggle against him for what seems like an eternity, but he keeps a firm grip on me, and I can't get away. I sigh and decide it's best to just give up.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMHw3bOUcj
Father grabs my chin, and I look at him.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBhvuEeQNa
"Don't make me have to punish you, child."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfAwd3sul0
I say, "What are you going to do to me?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjGdEz4zXo
Father smiles. "I'm going to punish you in a way that you'll enjoy." He releases me. I drop to the ground, exhausted..183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemUGNtS8qU
I say, "Please don't hurt me."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hENwuNYdM
Father laughs. "I'm not going to hurt you, child. I'm going to make you scream. I'm going to make you wish you were dead."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sV6dayy3R
I say, "Please don't!"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTh5JmUCsgC
Father laughs. "Don't worry, I won't kill you. But I will make you wish you were dead, child."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCJskNnzTR
I say, "What does that mean?" Father laughs. He picks me up and throws me on the bed.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvC36QzVn1l
"You'll find out soon enough, child."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYel740amKf
Then he leaves the room, closing the door behind him. I wait.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZynw9lNSpk

It's the last day of the school year. Finally... I've been waiting for summer vacation since the first day of the school year. I'm almost halfway between the school and my house, feeling happier than ever. Suddenly... darkness. I would have never thought that the last day of my sophomore year would be the last normal day of my life..183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYTkmSroSo
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZz0HzNXmY9
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAQawGJQOY
I wait for what seems like forever, but he eventually comes back. He sits on the chair by the door. He looks at me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQx8TSFS7D
"Are you ready, child?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04PTV9Vis3
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZho6j8TgyD
I nod and say, "Y-yes."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYjeERPxTV
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55piMtDMt1
"Good. Here's what's going to happen. I'm going to bind your hands together. Then I'm going to blindfold you. Then, I'm going to have you stand in the middle of the circle."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1e15S9DcL
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46r4FkefRU
I say, "Okay.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpkjJNRe3Z
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMhP68Cbaf
I stand there, and Father ties my hands together, then blindfolds me. Father takes out the blindfold and places it over my eyes. I feel his hands on my shoulders, and start to feel uncomfortable.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvtMgUtrLC
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwtrcxEJQ6
I hear him say, "Bend your knees and keep your eyes forward." I do as I'm told.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11fRCAmNCX
He says "Now, walk forward, slowly."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyrYgKBpSp
I feel his hands on my lower back and begin walking. I walk forward, and my feet move, taking me forward. My legs continue walking, taking me further and further away from Father. My heart is pounding in my ears. Then, I reach the center of the circle.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9t8hYyNbB
Father says "Good. Stay there."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhLv5MRPbk
I feel his hands on my shoulders. I hear him say, "Don't look back, child. It'll make things much worse." I stay there. Then, I hear Father's footsteps. I hear his footsteps stop. I stand perfectly still. Father says, "Well, well, well. Look at you." I wonder what's going on. I don't move, even though I can't see. I wait. I stand perfectly still and wait. I hear his footsteps walking toward me. I wait.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5iEYi62Ca
I stand perfectly still. His footsteps stop. His hands grab my shoulders, and I tense up. His hands push me down. I fall to the ground, and my head smacks into the cold, hard ground. I wince. I lie there, waiting. I wait for a long time, but then I hear his footsteps. They get louder... closer. My heart rate goes up. I wait. I tense up. I stay still. His footsteps stop.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaJLMIMI0F
He must be right next to me. I hold my breath. I wait. I stay still.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejvt584Z5b
His hands touch my face. I tense up even more. His hands slide down my body, and my knees get weak. He unbuttons my blouse. His hands slide up my bra. I want to scream. He unzips my pants. His hands slide down my panties. I scream,"Stop!"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZPHaJERVJ
"Please!" I whisper.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqv2u16lzI
He pulls down my underwear, and he takes his time. His fingers slide inside of me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeBybCxyU3
I scream loudly.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2Tqe9WnJZ
My scream echoes throughout the room.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTSqzpuETw
"SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!" he shouts.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wilU3atdC
His fingers slide faster. I scream louder.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrePkMbi1HN
"I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!" he shouts. I try not to moan.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAnc7XUyX7
My body shakes. My legs shake. I can't control it. My body gives in to the pleasure. I moan and shake--my body trembles. My moans get louder and louder.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Fb2QMlab8
I say "P-please s-stop.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWS6e9amDH
He stops for a moment, before sliding his fingers inside of me again. I stay still, and soon, I begin to come down from my orgasm. I lie there, panting. My hands are tied tightly together. I start sobbing.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2oYxlsWKr
He pulls his fingers out of me. I wince and groan. I'm sore from the orgasm. I lie there, sobbing. I feel him sit down next to me. He unties my hands. I cry harder.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hqmZ8RWbZ
He pulls the blindfold off of me, and I see that there are several men standing around, staring at me. I try to cover myself, but one of the men pulls the blanket off of me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoVFDZlnF8
"What's the matter, huh?" one of the men says.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMhy0mpCpz

"Let's see if she's a filthy little cocksucker," another says. I say "Please leave me alone!" They laugh. They grab me. They forcefully violate me. I start sobbing. I'm crying, and I can't stop. My tears are falling down my face.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHRd77Newl
They untie me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcdsoZDfPK
I lie there, naked and sobbing. I'm sore, and my butt is sore. I keep crying harder. After a while, I hear a voice.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZCCBlktQa
"Ah... you're up," Father says.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5EBOYehZB
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03fJnvlz5d

"You will," Father says.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxovXDyoPXq

"I have someone coming who will do a better job than me."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLpeD1mUsC
I stand up, and he turns around. I wonder who he's talking about. I try to block out the image of his penis, but I can't. He walks over to the door and disappears.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6O278o5E4g
I'm all alone in the room.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnml9UkAZu

"Hands behind your back," he says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11m6cCqSTj

He comes up to me, and I can feel him unbutton my shirt. He removes my shirt and he puts his hand on my stomach. I gasp. I can feel his fingers on my skin. I can feel his breath on my skin. He puts his other hand on my head and he pushes my head toward his penis.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmvYIG9Pmx

"What?" he says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6AVcHvLwI
I try to get air. I inhale. I try to get air out.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2leRoA01Qu
He shoves it back in my throat and I gag on his penis. I cough and vomit. I continue to struggle. He pushes it in even deeper. I have no strength left. My vision goes black. He shoves it out again.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDi655ACtBP
"Is this too big for you?" he says.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzGk8ZHo51
I nod.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58DFKVTBUD

"Get dressed," he says.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC33p6HROFF
I get dressed. He pushes me out the door and shoves me out the door. He closes it behind me. I take the chance to run away. I run away from the cultists as they try to catch me. They shout at me to stop, but I keep running. I manage to escape them and run away. I run all the way back home. I'm safe at last.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvcCN2Hecn

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JwmHmxRYC
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu7qlFywk4

I sob in the back of the cop car. I am being taken to the police station, and I don't know what to expect.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fguaGf8OV

"We'll get you someone who can explain it to the judge, I promise." I am taken to a different cell and left alone. I sob and cry for what seems like hours. I cry about what I did, cry about being in prison, cry about being a murderer. Eventually, I stop crying and just sit there on the bed, surrounded by concrete walls.

"Get up." he says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgD4j5TJSTU

The man looks at me, and then walks up to the woman.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwE33QroctC

"Hello. I'm your lawyer. Now, you can wait here, or you can come with me." I follow the man.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqeUwD6Zux
I am led down a set of stairs, and into a basement. There, I see a large table. I sit at one of the chairs.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9tdQ6FbBx

"No."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu634CeD3sY
"You sure? Think hard."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaImZ0uTgc
I think for a few moments, trying to remember anything else the man said or did.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77hNDS6k1n
I say, "He killed my father."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dJWiAVXbf
"What?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGE43Erha68
I say, "When I ran away and made it back home, the man tracked where I ran to and shot my father."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOAofwUAwh
"Your father? I'm very sorry to hear that. You know, I don't think that you're a murderer. I think that you were kidnapped and forced to do what you did." I try to hold back tears. "I'm going to get you a doctor to examine you. I think you might be experiencing some emotional trauma and it's affecting you. Would you like to see a doctor?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZIKfV4TXf
"Y-yes.." I say shakily.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgMqyRmReU
The man nods, and a man in a suit walks into the room.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCOgIoW3bt
"Ah, there you are." he says, "I have Doctor Dershian here. He wants to examine you."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0yWu6kmmH
I say, "Okay.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxh7iooGpc
The man in the suit leaves the room, and another man enters the room. He is wearing a lab coat.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iSooShXye
He says, "Hello. Why don't you come with me?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHe43EDyZT
I follow him.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxEB9taSsv
He leads me up the stairs, and into a room. He says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuuqtLrQeV
"Okay, why don't you tell me what happened?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJLtB0UPkI
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncvQ0JuC0r
I say, "A-a man kidnapped me and abused and sexually assaulted m-me..."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCGBCvp6D3
"Alright. Take a seat."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zcGlxadQ5
The man is Doctor Dershian. He asks me a few questions about the events leading up to the murder, and about my emotional state now.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Rshw6Y7zh
I say, "More than a few times the man made me think about killing myself.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIb3P7CL5kQ
"Really? You tried to kill yourself?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNscZEB10mq
"Yes.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdsXcFANJI
"I see. Do you feel suicidal now?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KXe8OD9Lj
I say, "Not really. I'm just really emotionally shattered."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDzebe1q2r
"Okay, I'll get someone to take you to a counselor. You just wait here," Doctor Dershian says, and walks out of the room.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kstqNT8ei
I feel like the whole situation is about to make me explode.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1XFu1Yt60
A few minutes later, Doctor Dershian returns.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNq6ZPalio
I say, "D-doctor.. I-I feel suicidal right n-now..."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaNBYZor23
"Suicidal?" Doctor Dershian asks, "What makes you say that?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMgbpuLJVu
I say, "The situation is just too much for me to handle."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOjFWG6jsY
"I see. Would you like to go to a counselor?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfld3RmH22
"Y-yes, please." Doctor Dershian is about to say something, but is interrupted by the door opening. I look up. In walks a man in a white, long, lab coat. He looks very serious. He says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o3gw8IOza
"I'm Doctor Kessel. I'm here to evaluate you." I try to stand up but collapse to the floor. Doctor Kessel immediately calls for a nurse. The nurse walks in, and says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQStKJeGpK
"What is it?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7iMwX1ec7
Doctor Kessel says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjS2xYWt1p
"This patient is suicidal." I lie on the floor sobbing.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2jVeObiOV
A few minutes later, a nurse walks back into the room and helps me to my feet. She holds my hand and helps me to a chair. I sit down, and try to stop crying.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacfoYfgFsN
I say, "Why me??? Why does this all have to happen to ME??" The nurse looks at me with sympathy, and says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXi2HmCLaM
"I'm sorry, but that's part of the evaluation. We need to find out why you're suicidal. We want to help you."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSr1EXaBHJ
I say, "Why did I have to get kidnapped? Why was I the one to be abused? Why did I have to become a murderer? WHY ME??"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9LwH2lyl3
The nurse shakes her head, and says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBXqUItHsr
"I'm sorry. We'll talk about this after we finish the evaluation. Right now, we need to do some tests." I try to not cry.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtKKucm5lE
I feel so helpless. I feel so out of control, and I can't do anything to change this. I go over to a table, and the nurse helps me remove my clothes. I feel like I'm slowly dying inside. I don't even care.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsvf192JLb
The nurse helps me into a gown, and I lie down on the examination table. She cleans and checks my inner and outer thighs, my genitalia, and my breasts. I try to calm down and breathe normally. The nurse says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcdQibTB23
"I need to do a blood draw, and a urine sample. I need your help with this." I comply, and the nurse takes my blood. At this point, I don't even feel the pain. I just want to die.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxasbOqlIY
After a few minutes, the nurse comes back and says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWcyVhQNX4
"Okay, come with me." I get up and follow the nurse into a different room. I try to maintain my composure. The nurse says, "I need to check your blood pressure. I need you to lay down on the table and get on all fours." I lay down and get on all fours. Suddenly, I start having horrific flashbacks about the kidnapping. My heart rate goes up.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGtN1ELRM0
The nurse says, "Okay, your BP is a little high. I need to do an ultrasound to check your kidneys, and a CAT scan to check your brain." I start to shake and cry. I feel like the world is weighing down on me. I want to give up. The nurse tries to console me, and she says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIw8sIfEPu
"Everything is going to be okay. You'll see your family soon." I slowly calm down. I start to feel a little more at ease. I breathe deeply and start to fall asleep on the table.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzolbNnWPD
A few minutes later, I wake up. The nurse is there, and she is smiling at me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQPxIsgKax
I say "Where am I?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA3qxL37p4
"You're in a hospital room. We moved you to a private room because you were so hysterical and it was so crowded. You were also vomiting blood. It's going to be okay."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35RlVXcoSk
I say, "Am I diagnosed with insanity?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0NkH3ISbi
The nurse smiles sadly, "No, but they're still determining that. It's going to be a few days before they give you a diagnosis. In the meantime, you'll be monitored, and you can have visitors."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡux65iKfrsw
I say, "I want to see my mom..."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnVkDk4VI0
The nurse interrupts me and says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvS6Rlfgjez
"I'm sorry, but I need to do some tests. I'm going to be back to let you know when you can have visitors."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJP1RX4ZpDD
"O-okay.." I say as I feel the tears welling up again. The nurse leaves the room, and I cry for a few minutes. I feel so helpless. I can't do anything to help myself.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKSsNxCOU7
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMPc4GHGTG
A few hours later, my mom comes to visit.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ737W4MnrgO
"M-mom.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwcVja2wxq
My mom walks into the room, and gives me a big hug.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSkByMQu3J
"I'm so glad to see you, baby! I've been so worried."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOs9XmHjAah
I say, "I feel like I'm going crazy mom. Why did life have to do this to me?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡja1F9znLqs
"I know honey. I've been thinking the same thing. They said they're going to keep you here for a few more days, and they're going to keep an eye on you."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOB8xTNUzyP
"I-I love you mom," I say as I start crying.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7ZqBq8TVl
"I love you too, sweetie. I want to be there with you. I want to do something to make you feel better. Do you think you could pray with me?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicbo97Y8Ho
"Yes.." I say quietly.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFnvqyTjpL
I say a prayer with my mom, and I feel calm and at ease.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I01Kt6SID
After we pray, my mom asks if I want to talk about what happened.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVzotQGgNC
I say, "If I start talking about that, I'm going to start sobbing and I won't be able to control myself.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHsQRBIsCM
"I know honey, but you need to get it out. Get everything out. Don't hold anything in. It's eating at you, and it's making you sick."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmPYo747hl
I say, "Why did that man kidnap me?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxkBCTav3Y
"I don't know honey. We'll find out soon. I'll talk to the doctor when he comes in, and I'll find out what's going on. I promise."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYpslQxeUL
I say, "Once this is all resolved, are the cult members gonna be thrown in prison?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq4LYSaIIn
"I don't know, honey. I hope so. I don't think there's a jury that would convict them. I'll do what I can to make sure that happens."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMy0swBR8AB
I say, "Okay.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7X7shlMic
My mom spends the rest of my visit in the hospital room, and we don't say another word to each other. After my visit is over, I spend a couple of hours in the empty hospital room. I start crying again. I feel so helpless, and I can't do anything to help myself. I don't know when I will get another visit, or if I'll ever get out of this hospital. I cry myself to sleep. I wake up, wishing this was all just a bad dream. I hope that when I get out of the hospital, everything will be back to normal, and I'll just live my life with no problems. The nurse walks into the hospital room.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriMyCImI5H

My sister, Charlotte, visits me. She asks me what's wrong. I can't even answer her. I just cry. I feel so ashamed of myself. Charlotte starts to leave the room.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MQXfklaZk
I say, "Wait!" She stops.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGtVyVrcO7
"What is it?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPPEyxnKCc
I say, "I need a hug.." Charlotte wraps her arms around me, and I cry.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9x1Mf9FSy
I eventually gather the strength to tell my sister what the doctor said.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6js8pA4fR
I say, "The doctor said I have a.. Std..."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAQJGO1D8k
"I know, sis. I'm so, so sorry."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWKMWdxnot
I cry myself to sleep.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzf1muj9Wnu
The next day, I get another visit from my mom.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrTrHXwQCn
"How are you doing, honey?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupsCjKVKGq
I say, "Horrible.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NjuKoHrZ3
She walks over and sits next to me on the bed.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIARF98vub
"I heard about you testing positive for a sexually transmitted disease. I'm so sorry."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqHRGt3ikD
I say, "I'm so ashamed..."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWD4viAZMpy
"It's not your fault, honey."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSfZ50GWjl
I start crying again.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgH8uxU99M
"I'll get you some tissues, honey. You can cry on them. Cry your heart out."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeR82wCWCzd
I cry myself to sleep in my mother's arms. I wake up the next morning. I'm not as tired as I was yesterday. Maybe the doctor gave me some new medication, or maybe I'm just getting used to being here. I don't feel any emotions. I feel empty and dead inside. I don't care about anything. I don't feel any guilt or shame.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSgbAE5qKe
Maybe I'm dead after all.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlILUP9STe
Maybe this is what it feels like to be nothing. I get a visit from my lawyer.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCUFbGpgOh
"I heard the test results, and I'm here to ask you if you would like to pursue this case. You tested positive for a sexually transmitted disease, so the chances of us winning are pretty slim."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTztZpVX4eK
"I don't even know anymore," I say as I shed a tear.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzO0XCFuGg
"I understand. If you don't want to pursue this case, then I'll get someone who will."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MehNSMyi9
I say, "I still want to win this."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ05MJYzChZ
"Well, it's up to you, then. I'll go get our legal team, and we can get started."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjd2IBN0lX
I spend the next few weeks resting in my hospital room. I don't have any visitors. I have forgotten what life is like outside the hospital. I don't even want to leave my hospital room. I spend my days watching reruns of Friends and crying. One day the nurse comes into the room and says, "I've got good news."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPYV7BxDS0
"Really?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORIYeViEz2
"Yeah, your doctor says you can go home today."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoaxzoSqGV
I start crying, and I can't stop.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqF3ccphDpA
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6AsIGtxMl
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWgsdpdO6O
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvLhWAimWF
I spend my time at home resting. I don't do anything. One day I decide to walk outside.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8Qm0VYyNT
I get out my patio door, and I don't turn around and go back inside. I don't know why, but I just have this urge to walk outside.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDChgvbYLf
I stand in the middle of my lawn.The smell of fresh air makes me emotional. I start crying happy tears. I walk over to my flower bed and pick a few flowers to smell. I smell them, and then throw them in the air and watch them float away. They are so pretty, and they smell so good.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaOkHjYljR
My mom opens the front door and says, "What are you doing?" I turn around to see her standing there.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozNM6xtI1p
"I wanted to see the flowers."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uNElU57Af
"Why are you out of your room?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXncdMQOaP
"I don't know. I just felt like walking outside."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4N25MTSOw
I say, "I've been cooped up in a room for way too long."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWN3J8W1pkv
"Yeah, I know what you mean," my mom says. She picks me up and gives me a big hug.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZi1aOroE3
"Thank you for being you."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuziNeu4v6
"You don't have to thank me." I see the next-door neighbor's son walk out to get the mail. I look at him fascinated. He has no fear. He doesn't know what it's like to be scared. He doesn't know what it feels like to live in a nightmare.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6Zkwj9QoT
I make a decision.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTPOHrULno
I walk up to the neighbor's boy and say, "Hi!"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpam7ZYlDN
"What's your name?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMaGq2EcTK
"Allisa," I say, smiling.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5Y9hffMwP
"I'm Carter. What are you doing out of your room?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNWkShjv62
I say, "I just wanted to get some fresh air."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqn3GcunXi
"Yeah, I know what you mean. I had this urge to walk outside too." He laughs.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwYlwkwzE5
I say, "Well I gotta go back inside.." I go back inside and go to bed. I don't know why I feel so empty. I want to fill this void. I want to find something to fill all of this space.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CNGgIqdwU

Your life as a pet is very degrading. You aren't allowed on furniture, you're not allowed to speak unless spoken to, and you're not allowed to do anything without the permission of Father, whom you are forced to address as Master. You aren't even called by your name. Instead, you are simply called Pet. Right now you're sitting on the ground inside Father's study, which is in a building known as the Community Center, staring out of the window.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbgBC4uhrg
The study is large and furnished with a desk and chair, some bookshelves with many old books, and that's about it. The door to the room creaks open and Father steps inside, his golden hair and eyes sparking in the sunlight. He walks over to his desk and sees you staring out the window.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReKIGxL2mf
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lx5FysB6z
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5666vNKekC
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzJKiEGaZF
He sighs and sits down in his chair. "What is it, child?" he asks, with a tone that makes me feel like he is disappointed in me. "Why are you looking out the window?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2gDblD7yR
"I just want to go home," I say.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFfrT5Chfo
Father sighs again. "Child, I know you miss your home, but we're not going anywhere for a while." He sits back in his chair. I start to cry, and Father stares at me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeobZRuT0AB
"Why are you crying?" he asks, with a small amount of anger in his voice. I cry even harder.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkWJ7rrUzu
Father sighs.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsa2K9i9TP
I say "I don't want to stay here!"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd24LBpC6aK
Father gets up from his chair and walks over to me and kneels down in front of me. I look at the ground and Father grabs my chin and forces me to look at him. I look into his eyes. His eyes are cold, like stone. He stares at me with no emotion whatsoever.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizmz8oda6f
There's no compassion, no sympathy. I'm just a thing to be used. He will use me for his own benefit, and then he will get rid of me. I need to get out of here. I stand up quickly and bolt for the door.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Xw00aP0cA
"Stop!" he shouts, but I already hear his footsteps behind me. I open the door and run out. I run past the cult members, who only stare at me in awe, some whispering among themselves. I run until I come to a large oak tree. I climb the tree, which is only a few feet away from the ground. I find a branch that I think is strong enough to hold me, and climb up.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEdNCVzMI4
I can hear Father's footsteps getting closer. I hide myself in the branches of the tree.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOC61RdVeJ5
Father comes to the tree, his footsteps getting closer and closer to the tree. He stops, staring at the tree.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7HXPBSxE0
"Pet, come down from the tree."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVmEr1zhdp
I stay silent.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNpsP52LPj
"Pet, I know you're in there. Come down from the tree right now or else I won't only punish you, I'll make your siblings suffer too. Do you want that to happen?" I come down from the tree and land on the ground with a thud. Father grabs me, and I struggle against his grip, but I can't escape.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWeducA7WT
"Come with me, child." I am dragged along by Father.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxDrMOoNPQ
I struggle as I walk with him, but I can't get away. We walk for what seems like forever, and then we finally come to a large, circular room. I look around the room. The room is circular, with no windows, and only two doors. One door is at the very center of the room, while the other is at the very edge.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPv2xY7vnt
I struggle against Father, who only laughs at me. I struggle against him for what seems like an eternity, but he keeps a firm grip on me, and I can't get away. I sigh and decide it's best to just give up.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMHw3bOUcj
Father grabs my chin, and I look at him.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBhvuEeQNa
"Don't make me have to punish you, child."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfAwd3sul0
I say, "What are you going to do to me?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjGdEz4zXo
Father smiles. "I'm going to punish you in a way that you'll enjoy." He releases me. I drop to the ground, exhausted..183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemUGNtS8qU
I say, "Please don't hurt me."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hENwuNYdM
Father laughs. "I'm not going to hurt you, child. I'm going to make you scream. I'm going to make you wish you were dead."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sV6dayy3R
I say, "Please don't!"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTh5JmUCsgC
Father laughs. "Don't worry, I won't kill you. But I will make you wish you were dead, child."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCJskNnzTR
I say, "What does that mean?" Father laughs. He picks me up and throws me on the bed.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvC36QzVn1l
"You'll find out soon enough, child."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYel740amKf
Then he leaves the room, closing the door behind him. I wait.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZynw9lNSpk

It's the last day of the school year. Finally... I've been waiting for summer vacation since the first day of the school year. I'm almost halfway between the school and my house, feeling happier than ever. Suddenly... darkness. I would have never thought that the last day of my sophomore year would be the last normal day of my life..183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYTkmSroSo

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5knhoNPY9I wait for what seems like forever, but he eventually comes back. He sits on the chair by the door. He looks at me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQx8TSFS7D
"Are you ready, child?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04PTV9Vis3
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZho6j8TgyD
I nod and say, "Y-yes."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYjeERPxTV
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55piMtDMt1
"Good. Here's what's going to happen. I'm going to bind your hands together. Then I'm going to blindfold you. Then, I'm going to have you stand in the middle of the circle."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1e15S9DcL
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46r4FkefRU
I say, "Okay.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpkjJNRe3Z
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMhP68Cbaf
I stand there, and Father ties my hands together, then blindfolds me. Father takes out the blindfold and places it over my eyes. I feel his hands on my shoulders, and start to feel uncomfortable.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvtMgUtrLC
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwtrcxEJQ6
I hear him say, "Bend your knees and keep your eyes forward." I do as I'm told.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11fRCAmNCX
He says "Now, walk forward, slowly."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyrYgKBpSp
I feel his hands on my lower back and begin walking. I walk forward, and my feet move, taking me forward. My legs continue walking, taking me further and further away from Father. My heart is pounding in my ears. Then, I reach the center of the circle.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9t8hYyNbB
Father says "Good. Stay there."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhLv5MRPbk
I feel his hands on my shoulders. I hear him say, "Don't look back, child. It'll make things much worse." I stay there. Then, I hear Father's footsteps. I hear his footsteps stop. I stand perfectly still. Father says, "Well, well, well. Look at you." I wonder what's going on. I don't move, even though I can't see. I wait. I stand perfectly still and wait. I hear his footsteps walking toward me. I wait.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5iEYi62Ca
I stand perfectly still. His footsteps stop. His hands grab my shoulders, and I tense up. His hands push me down. I fall to the ground, and my head smacks into the cold, hard ground. I wince. I lie there, waiting. I wait for a long time, but then I hear his footsteps. They get louder... closer. My heart rate goes up. I wait. I tense up. I stay still. His footsteps stop.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaJLMIMI0F
He must be right next to me. I hold my breath. I wait. I stay still.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejvt584Z5b
His hands touch my face. I tense up even more. His hands slide down my body, and my knees get weak. He unbuttons my blouse. His hands slide up my bra. I want to scream. He unzips my pants. His hands slide down my panties. I scream,"Stop!"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZPHaJERVJ
"Please!" I whisper.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqv2u16lzI
He pulls down my underwear, and he takes his time. His fingers slide inside of me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeBybCxyU3
I scream loudly.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2Tqe9WnJZ
My scream echoes throughout the room.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTSqzpuETw
"SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!" he shouts.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wilU3atdC
His fingers slide faster. I scream louder.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrePkMbi1HN
"I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!" he shouts. I try not to moan.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAnc7XUyX7
My body shakes. My legs shake. I can't control it. My body gives in to the pleasure. I moan and shake--my body trembles. My moans get louder and louder.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Fb2QMlab8
I say "P-please s-stop.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWS6e9amDH
He stops for a moment, before sliding his fingers inside of me again. I stay still, and soon, I begin to come down from my orgasm. I lie there, panting. My hands are tied tightly together. I start sobbing.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2oYxlsWKr
He pulls his fingers out of me. I wince and groan. I'm sore from the orgasm. I lie there, sobbing. I feel him sit down next to me. He unties my hands. I cry harder.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hqmZ8RWbZ
He pulls the blindfold off of me, and I see that there are several men standing around, staring at me. I try to cover myself, but one of the men pulls the blanket off of me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoVFDZlnF8
"What's the matter, huh?" one of the men says.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMhy0mpCpz
"Look at her," another says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8eZy6AFc1

"Look at her. She's a dirty little slut," one of them says.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeygwlmLMKD
"Let's see if she's a filthy little cocksucker," another says. I say "Please leave me alone!" They laugh. They grab me. They forcefully violate me. I start sobbing. I'm crying, and I can't stop. My tears are falling down my face.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHRd77Newl
They untie me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcdsoZDfPK
I lie there, naked and sobbing. I'm sore, and my butt is sore. I keep crying harder. After a while, I hear a voice.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZCCBlktQa

I say, "I can't handle this anymore. I can't stay here any longer. This is too much."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs309DTet62

"You will," Father says.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxovXDyoPXq
"I said I won't!" I say. Father gets angry. He pulls me to my feet. He slaps me hard across the face.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCNhGotcyo

I say, "Why me??? Why does this all have to happen to ME??" The nurse looks at me with sympathy, and says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXi2HmCLaM
"I'm sorry, but that's part of the evaluation. We need to find out why you're suicidal. We want to help you."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSr1EXaBHJ
I say, "Why did I have to get kidnapped? Why was I the one to be abused? Why did I have to become a murderer? WHY ME??"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9LwH2lyl3
The nurse shakes her head, and says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBXqUItHsr
"I'm sorry. We'll talk about this after we finish the evaluation. Right now, we need to do some tests." I try to not cry.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtKKucm5lE
I feel so helpless. I feel so out of control, and I can't do anything to change this. I go over to a table, and the nurse helps me remove my clothes. I feel like I'm slowly dying inside. I don't even care.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsvf192JLb
The nurse helps me into a gown, and I lie down on the examination table. She cleans and checks my inner and outer thighs, my genitalia, and my breasts. I try to calm down and breathe normally. The nurse says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcdQibTB23
"I need to do a blood draw, and a urine sample. I need your help with this." I comply, and the nurse takes my blood. At this point, I don't even feel the pain. I just want to die.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxasbOqlIY
After a few minutes, the nurse comes back and says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWcyVhQNX4
"Okay, come with me." I get up and follow the nurse into a different room. I try to maintain my composure. The nurse says, "I need to check your blood pressure. I need you to lay down on the table and get on all fours." I lay down and get on all fours. Suddenly, I start having horrific flashbacks about the kidnapping. My heart rate goes up.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGtN1ELRM0
The nurse says, "Okay, your BP is a little high. I need to do an ultrasound to check your kidneys, and a CAT scan to check your brain." I start to shake and cry. I feel like the world is weighing down on me. I want to give up. The nurse tries to console me, and she says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIw8sIfEPu
"Everything is going to be okay. You'll see your family soon." I slowly calm down. I start to feel a little more at ease. I breathe deeply and start to fall asleep on the table.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzolbNnWPD
A few minutes later, I wake up. The nurse is there, and she is smiling at me.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQPxIsgKax
I say "Where am I?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA3qxL37p4
"You're in a hospital room. We moved you to a private room because you were so hysterical and it was so crowded. You were also vomiting blood. It's going to be okay."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35RlVXcoSk
I say, "Am I diagnosed with insanity?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0NkH3ISbi
The nurse smiles sadly, "No, but they're still determining that. It's going to be a few days before they give you a diagnosis. In the meantime, you'll be monitored, and you can have visitors."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡux65iKfrsw
I say, "I want to see my mom..."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnVkDk4VI0
The nurse interrupts me and says,183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvS6Rlfgjez
"I'm sorry, but I need to do some tests. I'm going to be back to let you know when you can have visitors."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJP1RX4ZpDD
"O-okay.." I say as I feel the tears welling up again. The nurse leaves the room, and I cry for a few minutes. I feel so helpless. I can't do anything to help myself.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKSsNxCOU7

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjh3dno28TA few hours later, my mom comes to visit.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ737W4MnrgO
"M-mom.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwcVja2wxq
My mom walks into the room, and gives me a big hug.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSkByMQu3J
"I'm so glad to see you, baby! I've been so worried."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOs9XmHjAah
I say, "I feel like I'm going crazy mom. Why did life have to do this to me?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡja1F9znLqs
"I know honey. I've been thinking the same thing. They said they're going to keep you here for a few more days, and they're going to keep an eye on you."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOB8xTNUzyP
"I-I love you mom," I say as I start crying.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7ZqBq8TVl
"I love you too, sweetie. I want to be there with you. I want to do something to make you feel better. Do you think you could pray with me?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicbo97Y8Ho
"Yes.." I say quietly.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFnvqyTjpL
I say a prayer with my mom, and I feel calm and at ease.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I01Kt6SID
After we pray, my mom asks if I want to talk about what happened.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVzotQGgNC
I say, "If I start talking about that, I'm going to start sobbing and I won't be able to control myself.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHsQRBIsCM
"I know honey, but you need to get it out. Get everything out. Don't hold anything in. It's eating at you, and it's making you sick."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmPYo747hl
I say, "Why did that man kidnap me?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxkBCTav3Y
"I don't know honey. We'll find out soon. I'll talk to the doctor when he comes in, and I'll find out what's going on. I promise."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYpslQxeUL
I say, "Once this is all resolved, are the cult members gonna be thrown in prison?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq4LYSaIIn
"I don't know, honey. I hope so. I don't think there's a jury that would convict them. I'll do what I can to make sure that happens."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMy0swBR8AB
I say, "Okay.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7X7shlMic
My mom spends the rest of my visit in the hospital room, and we don't say another word to each other. After my visit is over, I spend a couple of hours in the empty hospital room. I start crying again. I feel so helpless, and I can't do anything to help myself. I don't know when I will get another visit, or if I'll ever get out of this hospital. I cry myself to sleep. I wake up, wishing this was all just a bad dream. I hope that when I get out of the hospital, everything will be back to normal, and I'll just live my life with no problems. The nurse walks into the hospital room.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriMyCImI5H
"I'm so sorry to wake you, but I need to speak with you. It's very important."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumYTibAwiU
I wipe the tears off my face.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqujoxOurY
I say, "What is it? What's wrong?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0G1t7msxx
"Your tests came back, and you tested positive for.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB7slxTs3H
I say, "What? What did I test positive for?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDN9iIR0FxP
"I'm so, so sorry. I wish I could tell you. I really do. You tested positive for.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjVELpFzkX
I say, "Tell me!"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaUJUikcNJ
"A sexually transmitted disease. I'm so, so sorry, dear."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDGoAMYh4J
My heart drops.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9T5J27eWUc
I feel so ashamed. I cry myself to sleep again.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfI4klxnht

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlOEl5adzoIn the morning, I get my visitors.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpEikGIgXm
My sister, Charlotte, visits me. She asks me what's wrong. I can't even answer her. I just cry. I feel so ashamed of myself. Charlotte starts to leave the room.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MQXfklaZk
I say, "Wait!" She stops.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGtVyVrcO7
"What is it?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPPEyxnKCc
I say, "I need a hug.." Charlotte wraps her arms around me, and I cry.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9x1Mf9FSy
I eventually gather the strength to tell my sister what the doctor said.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6js8pA4fR
I say, "The doctor said I have a.. Std..."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAQJGO1D8k
"I know, sis. I'm so, so sorry."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWKMWdxnot
I cry myself to sleep.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzf1muj9Wnu
The next day, I get another visit from my mom.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrTrHXwQCn
"How are you doing, honey?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupsCjKVKGq
I say, "Horrible.."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NjuKoHrZ3
She walks over and sits next to me on the bed.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIARF98vub
"I heard about you testing positive for a sexually transmitted disease. I'm so sorry."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqHRGt3ikD
I say, "I'm so ashamed..."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWD4viAZMpy
"It's not your fault, honey."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSfZ50GWjl
I start crying again.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgH8uxU99M
"I'll get you some tissues, honey. You can cry on them. Cry your heart out."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeR82wCWCzd
I cry myself to sleep in my mother's arms. I wake up the next morning. I'm not as tired as I was yesterday. Maybe the doctor gave me some new medication, or maybe I'm just getting used to being here. I don't feel any emotions. I feel empty and dead inside. I don't care about anything. I don't feel any guilt or shame.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSgbAE5qKe
Maybe I'm dead after all.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlILUP9STe
Maybe this is what it feels like to be nothing. I get a visit from my lawyer.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCUFbGpgOh
"I heard the test results, and I'm here to ask you if you would like to pursue this case. You tested positive for a sexually transmitted disease, so the chances of us winning are pretty slim."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTztZpVX4eK
"I don't even know anymore," I say as I shed a tear.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzO0XCFuGg
"I understand. If you don't want to pursue this case, then I'll get someone who will."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MehNSMyi9
I say, "I still want to win this."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ05MJYzChZ
"Well, it's up to you, then. I'll go get our legal team, and we can get started."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjd2IBN0lX
I spend the next few weeks resting in my hospital room. I don't have any visitors. I have forgotten what life is like outside the hospital. I don't even want to leave my hospital room. I spend my days watching reruns of Friends and crying. One day the nurse comes into the room and says, "I've got good news."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPYV7BxDS0
"Really?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORIYeViEz2
"Yeah, your doctor says you can go home today."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoaxzoSqGV
I start crying, and I can't stop.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqF3ccphDpA

183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWgsdpdO6O
183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvLhWAimWF
I spend my time at home resting. I don't do anything. One day I decide to walk outside.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8Qm0VYyNT
I get out my patio door, and I don't turn around and go back inside. I don't know why, but I just have this urge to walk outside.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDChgvbYLf
I stand in the middle of my lawn.The smell of fresh air makes me emotional. I start crying happy tears. I walk over to my flower bed and pick a few flowers to smell. I smell them, and then throw them in the air and watch them float away. They are so pretty, and they smell so good.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaOkHjYljR
My mom opens the front door and says, "What are you doing?" I turn around to see her standing there.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozNM6xtI1p
"I wanted to see the flowers."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uNElU57Af
"Why are you out of your room?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXncdMQOaP
"I don't know. I just felt like walking outside."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4N25MTSOw
I say, "I've been cooped up in a room for way too long."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWN3J8W1pkv
"Yeah, I know what you mean," my mom says. She picks me up and gives me a big hug.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZi1aOroE3
"Thank you for being you."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuziNeu4v6
"You don't have to thank me." I see the next-door neighbor's son walk out to get the mail. I look at him fascinated. He has no fear. He doesn't know what it's like to be scared. He doesn't know what it feels like to live in a nightmare.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6Zkwj9QoT
I make a decision.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTPOHrULno
I walk up to the neighbor's boy and say, "Hi!"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpam7ZYlDN
"What's your name?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMaGq2EcTK
"Allisa," I say, smiling.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5Y9hffMwP
"I'm Carter. What are you doing out of your room?"183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNWkShjv62
I say, "I just wanted to get some fresh air."183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqn3GcunXi
"Yeah, I know what you mean. I had this urge to walk outside too." He laughs.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwYlwkwzE5
I say, "Well I gotta go back inside.." I go back inside and go to bed. I don't know why I feel so empty. I want to fill this void. I want to find something to fill all of this space.183Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CNGgIqdwU
