As you finished the last of your scraps of a meal you sunk lower and lower into the depths of sorrow. Despite your full belly you felt empty.
Numb to the world around you.
You began to feel a bitter bile in the back of your throat. You felt your emotions bubble up. You wantee to rage, to break everything in sight.
But you knew better.
You knew you couldn't.
You smothered and pressed down those feeling and squeezed them into a little box. You stuffed them inside; you crushed those feelings into they fit.
You sat there in your room wavering between consciousness and unconsciousness. Waiting for the hours to tick down until you would become the slave of that woman.

While sitting in that dark room a small breeze blew through the room then it intensified. A sudden gust, then a gale, and in the blink of an eye it was over.
You looked up.
Standing before you was the very witch who would be your new master.
You moved back, startled by my presence.
"What, Why are you here!?" You said.
(A lie)
You saw me smile.
