I knew it was a game. Damn but a good game it was for as long as it lasted.
"Let me go." I whisper.
He stares at me. His face turning so cold. "Fine." He says letting up on the grip of my arm.
"I'm done playing this game."

If the world could do drugs, I swear it would do them all of the time.
Because how could you possibly stay alive with all of these monsters living inside you. I would simply numb it out, maybe that's what the world is doing. Numbing itself from all of the bad things so it doesn't have to feel every betrayal.
I think I'm pathetic. I mean just take one good look at me. I'm fine one day then next I'm waking up in a cold sweat because I can't get those damn memories out of my head. They hunt for every happy piece inside me. My dreams, my afternoons, my talks with my mother, my time with Cassandra. It's always being tainted by some memory I've sworn out of my life.
For example; my father, Cole, Maddie... death. It's always right there. Watching me.
"... should I wear it or not?" I looked over at Scarlet with a puzzled look.
I chewed on the corner of my lip. "Yeah, sure. It looks great." Hell, I have no idea what she was talking about.
"Awesome!" She chirped, taking another bite of her sandwich. I watched her. I didn't know what else to do anyways. I felt off this morning, so I just skipped on lunch.
"Ms. White!" My head shot back to the very annoyed boss that was heading my way. I straightened my posture. "Come with me. I need you to look at something." He yanked me up from my chair. Dragging me down the hallway as I waved bye to Scarlet.
I pulled my arm out of his grip. "Damn, you're like the hulk. Good Lord." I massaged my arm to get the feeling back in it.
He typed on his phone furiously before holding it to his ear. "Wesley! Tell me your not fucking with me right now!" Yikes. Maybe if I just slip off this elevator cart real quick. "Anastasia!" Shit. I bared my teeth and stepped back on it quickly.
That blows my plan of running away.
"No, someone's fucking with me and I swear if I find out it's you I'm firing your dumb ass."
I awkwardly messed with my fingers as he continued to yell at Wesley. You know, I'll text Isla while he's doing that.
Isla:
Heyyyyy bitch! <
> Dear God, what is it.
Rude. Your still on for my < birthday party right? I need my best gal there. Plus I want you to meet Scarlet. Well she's the only one beside you going, lol.
> Yeah still on! I'll be late though. Your father is killing me with work xp
Funny, my father hasn't been < on my ass lately. Anyway gotta talk to the lion, later girl!
