"May I start?" Dinah looked at me, making me nod to her.
"Yes,"
"This handwriting is appalling. OK," she laughed a bit.
"Dear Diary,
I miss my boyfriend. He was brutally murdered my the outpost leader for something he didn't fucking do. Fuck you Ms Venable.
It has been nineteen months down here as of today and I just want another bomb to drop inside this place and remove any trace we were ever here from the world.
There's a possibility that Ms Venable is actually Satan, but I don't quite have enough evidence to prove it yet. It's a working progress.
Down here, there's a common room, dining room, torture room, and our rooms. I'm not sure what else Venable has to be honest. She seems sorta kinky. Maybe a sex room? But sex is banned down here, which is bullshit.
I miss food. Actual food, not these weird ass jelly cubes we're given every day. They taste depressing. Everything down here is depressing. Especially that girl that no one knows the name of. She's quite young and I swear to God, she is always crying.
I've never talked to her though, I don't think anyone has, now that j think about it. She hates everything I think. Don't we all?
She's taller than most of us here but she still looks like she's drowning in those dresses they make the girls wear. I might lend her a suit but it might be a bit big.
Anyway, I'm going to bed now," and Dinah closed the book.
"Who wrote it?"
No one came forward.
"Ms Stevens you can sit down," I smiled at her lightly.
"It's funny how none of you have ever spoken to me, yet you have all written about me, well excluding Ms Venable's secret admirer," y/n said gently, "am I that annoying to you all? Because I would've been fine had you just told me you wanted space,"
Everyone stayed silent, making the only noise in the room the crackling from the fire.
"I'm not as fragile as you all seem to think. I may be the youngest, but I've gone through a lot. I'm tough but I'm no cookie," she smiled gently.
"We're sorry," Coco whispered.
"Don't be," she replied and Coco got up and hugged her tightly, making my heart evaporate again.
"Next book?" I suggested and Evie stood up.
