I stare out the window longingly. The wind blows through the trees making the yellow and brown leaves rustle. A cat wonders by. It has no collar around its neck so it must be a stray.
Oh how I wish I was a stray cat, free to roam the streets freely and do what ever I please. I havnt known freedom for a long time.
I have Narcolepsy you see which means im always falling asleep even when im not tired. My mother keeps me locked in my room to keep me from falling asleep in a dangerous place. Im allowed in the garden in the summer for fresh air but that is it. Im in my room for the rest of the time.
Please dont think my mothers being stupid and that I shouldn't be kept like this. I fall asleep at least once every hour so I can see her point. She's just trying to keep me save. Is that a crime?
Life in my room isn't that bad anyway. I have a tv and a laptop as well as a phone so I can talk to a few people I know like my cousins and my mums friends children. I also have alot of books and magazines but I get bored of being cooped up all the time. I kind of live like sleeping beauty and rapunzel wrapped up in one.
I slide off the window seal and close the curtains. The outside world makes me so sad. Sometime its to much to even look at.
I walk over to my desk and pull out a hair brush from my top draw. The brush moves smoothly through my red hair as I stare at my pale reflection in my mirror. Im not saying im pale because im un sure of myself, no I'm saying it because I have to be. Im not going to be tanned if I hardly ever go out in the sun am I?
once I have finished brushing my hair I suddenly feel very tired. My eye lids begin to feel very heavy and before i know it.
Bang. I.... Am.... Falling... Asleepppppppppppppppppppp.
