Faith POV

It's dark... cold. I can see a light but just barely. I run as fast as I can to try to reach it, desperately reaching my arm out to try to feel the light on my skin; if only just a second.

Faster....I need to run faster...

It seems the further I run toward the light the further it gets. I need to reach it, I don't wanna be alone in the dark.

I run faster and faster until eventually the light engulf my whole being. I squint my eyes from the sudden flash of light and try to let then adjust but find I'm in a whole other room.

There were wooden floor boards and white walls with bars attached all the way around on every wall except one. The exempt wall being fully covered by a mirror that reflected myself. Hold up this room looks familiar and these clothes.

That's when I heard it and panic filled my whole being.

"Faith, how many times do I have to tell you don't daydream. You should be focusing on your dance cause it needs to be perfect and if you even stop for a second your wasting time. I don't care if you break your leg just continue."

My legs felt numb and I had collapsed bringing my hands to my head. I chant the same words over and over remembering everything that happened with this wretched woman.

No. No. No. no. No. No. NO. Why? Why am I back? I don't wanna be here?

I try to make myself as small as possible as if I was just trying to disappear entirely. I didn't want to be here and I couldn't bare to bring myself to escape again as the fear left me paralysed.

"Get up!"

I didn't respond, I can't stand but I don't want to.

"GET UP!"

Once again I don't respond.

" YOU PATHETIC EXCUSE OF A DAUGHTER, GET UP!"

I flinched but I was too busy frozen in fear to even stand up. She was growing impatient and you could tell. She started to walk toward the corner behind the door.

No. Not again. Please someone help!

She pulled out a worn out bat. You can still see the marks from the old attacks etched into it as if it was a trophy. Dried up blood and scratches. I tried to move but I couldn't so I tried my best to back up as fast as I could with whatever strength I had. But I didn't go far as I had met the wall.

NO. Please

I dreaded what was to come and I went pale. The bat raised as I fear for my life and just as it was about to hit me I brace for impact but it never comes.

Confused I open my eyes only to see I'm on a stage dressed in what ballerinas wear for black swan. I was the only one in this theatre though, at least from what I can see but I can feel multiple eyes watching me in the darkness. The spotlight was just on me as the whole rest of the theatre was flooded with the darkness.

I can't feel my body and I am somehow making it around the stage. How am I moving?

I look around to see what's going on but I can't move my head so it's just my eyes. My skin looks wooden and my joints all had strings attached. I look up to see horror. It was my mothers face holding a cross that strings were dangling from. I connected the dots. I'm a puppet on her strings.

I just wanna stop, I hate this feeling. I'm tired, I just wanna go home.

I hear laughter as the dancing continues, as if mocking my pain. No please I just want to go.
My eyes begin to have tears flooding from them however there's no tears it's just a line going down the wood from my eyes. The laughing gets louder as my breathing gets heavier and heavier and tears grow in number. My mother gleaming from above as everyone is enjoying my pain.

Please I just want this to end.

"Faith."

I look around to see whose calling me. Maybe they can help.

"Faith"

Where are you?

I look so desperately but the laughing is so loud and the spotlight is blinding.

"Faith"

The light gets brighter and I once again squint.

I awaken screaming and crying from my dream clutching ahold of the closest thing.

"Please not anymore. No more, I can't do anymore. Don't hurt me please."

I murmured crying into the pillow. Suddenly two arms engulf me in a hug as one of the hands pats my back and strokes my hair.

Hold up...

I open my eyes to see the pillow I had clutched onto wasn't a pillow but I'm fact Jimin. Ah crap. This is embarassing.

I quickly push him away as I wipe my eyes and try to calm myself. I'm still shaking but I gather enough strength to say

" you saw nothing."

"Faith..."

" YOU SAW NOTHING ALRIGHT!"

"Alright."

It was quiet for a second. But I didn't mind I was trying to clear my thoughts. And the quiet was calming especially cause it was reminding me of the peace I have found. I still feel my shaking and all I could hear was my heavy breathing. I'm fine, I am away from that woman. I keep changing in me head.

I feel a hand clutch mine to comfort me, which I didn't mind honestly as it was oddly calming. My breathing was normalizing and my shaking was slowing down. Maybe the human touch is reminding me this isn't a dream and the horror was and that I won't wake up to the woman shouting at me.

At the thought of this I unintentionally squeezed his hand back, which helped my shaking go. I am free, I then flop back onto the bed as I grew weak and tired of what just went down. I close my eyes for a second before I felt eyes watching me. I open my eyes again and realise Jimin is still here, and he's still holding my hand.

I snatch my hand away before feeling guilty for shouting earlier.

"Sorry"

" for what?"

"For shouting at you"

"Don't worry I get it"

He smiled to reassure me. But his eyes went into crescent moons. It was kinda adorable. I find myself warming up to him.

"Why are you in here?"

"Oh yeah... I was trying to tell you dinners ready."

"HOLD UP.... What time is it?"

"Like 8:30 pm."

Omg i slept the whole day away. I sigh from frustration but I'm kinda hungry so I slowly get up to walk to the door.

" you coming?"

" huh oh yeah..yeah"

We both had exited the room.
