From the other room I hear sobbing. I had tried being what he wanted but apparently it wasn't enough. I had to make him happy and gain his trust if I was ever going to get out of here. I had to convince him I was his baby and I loved him. Perhaps if I managed such a feat he'd trust me to be outside of this room.
The mere idea of it made my stomach turn. Acting like a baby seemed so foolish. I didn't know if I could take myself seriously. I was never a good actress, I think back to drama class in high school. I don't think even Christopher could take me seriously if a room full of my peers couldn't. But I had to try. There was no way around it. I had to make him believe that I would never dream of escaping, that I planned to be his forever.
Without control more sinister thoughts drifted in my head. The possibility of stabbing him seemed enjoyable. I'd impair him and make a quick exit, running to the neighbor's begging for help. Either way, at least I had a back up plan. I'd have to come up with some form of weapon.
I began wondering if Sasha was missing me or if she replaced me as a friend. I was always rude to her, never taking her seriously. If I ever got out of here, I would be a better friend. I will listen to her next time.
The sobbing has stopped and I hear footsteps down the hall. I sigh as I place the dreaded pacifier in my mouth and wait for my captor.
