I finally opened my eyes and I was blinded with the white color everywhere.

white

Ugh. I hated that color. White.

If you put me in a mental institute or hell i should say, you might as well put some color. Well, more like darker colors.

Black

I liked black. It reminded me of my soul. Dark and cold.

"You should get up Helena. Before they find you."

I jolted out of bed. Standing there was Mortmain. He was the only one I could trust. He was my friend you could say.

No

Not a friend. More like an acquaintance.

I quickly nodded to Mortmain and went to the restroom. I turned and looked in the mirror. Bad choice. My black hair was a tangled mess and the bags under my eyes were growing. I tried remembering what I used to look like, where I used to live, or anything before coming to Blackstone. Its like there was a block in my mind that I just couldn't get past. I finished my business in the restroom and left for the cafeteria.

Make a left down the hall, 10 steps and then make a right, 13 steps then make another left turn, 8 steps.

I practically was a GPS of the building. I never got lost. I knew it just like how I knew Gerard's 'signs from the universe' coming from is cereal in the mornings where never true. Everyday Gerard would look into his cereal and somehow see a 'sign'. All I saw was soggy fruit loops floating around and starting to color the milk.

"Hi Helena!"

I turned around and I was faced with a giggly and hyper Gerard.
I just waved and pushed past him.

I sat down at my table and looked down at the shit they gave us that was so called 'food'. I silently laugh. The 'food' they serve us here is garbage. I push it away.

"Hey Helena."

I look up and I see that Luke, Ray, Mikey, Calum, Ash, Bob, Lindsey, and Michael sit down.
I just smile and take out my pencil and drawing pad. 'Smile'. Please, I don't smile. I don't even remember if I ever have. I start sketching random lines. The lines turn into scribbles. The scribbles turn into gashes. I then realize I'm drawing my own arms. I never knew where the gashes came from.

I guess I'll never know where they came from.

I walk into the 'circle room' and sit down in one of the uncomfortable plastic chairs made for 6 year olds that can I barely fit my ass onto. People start filing into the room and then Dr. Yarrington comes in.

"I hope you all had a good breakfast, now does anyone want to start? Gerard how about you start!"
"I had a message in my cereal today! It said that someone new might be coming!"

I roll my eyes. No one new would be coming. All I knew is that I would most likely be staying for the rest of my life cause I'm such an awful fuck like that. I don't even know why I'm in this asylum.

What did they even think was wrong with me?
Why was I here?

Well it looks like I'll never get those answers.
