POV: Serenity Smith

Everything was pitch black and I was running nonstop. The tears falling down my eyes were blinding me. All I could think about was getting away from HIM.

"You can run all you want but I'm going get you sweet thang"

I kept running fast but for some reason this black room seems to be endless and no matter how fast I run he seems to be right behind me. I couldn't see a thing but for some reason I could see his hands reaching out to grab me. I could see the sweat beads on his arms everytime they reached to me.

"Stop fighting it, you know no one will ever cherish you the way I do"

"STOP ITTTTT" I screamed.

"Stop running, no one is going to help you. Your daddy hates you that's why his dead ass left you and your momma wished she never gave birth to you that's why she never cared for you"

I kept running away from him. Despite the pain that his words were causing me. The floor felt hard, cement like as if we were in the very room where it took place.

"Serenityyyyy..Serenityyyyy...Serenity...Serenity"
Someone was calling my name and the pitch black room was starting to get foggy.

"SERENITY! SERENITY! SERENITY WAKE UP!"

"FUCK" I yelled as I jumped out of my sleep

"FUCK" I yelled as I jumped out of my sleep. I hate when I start having these nightmares.

"Yo are you good? You were literally crying while you were asleep"

Sincere said sounding very concerned.

I touched my face and it was indeed wet from tears. My skin felt so hot and I was completely covered in sweat. It felt like I had a fever, my body felt sick, and worst of all mental pain had taken over my mind. I needed a cold shower. I jumped out of bed quickly and made my way to the bathroom to have a shower and go to the store to get a wrap. Not even giving Sincere an explanation, I just left her in there. I think she felt bad but I wasn't in the mood.
 
When I finished my shower and morning routine, I met sincere in the same spot I left her with a zoned out look on her face.

"It's him isn't it? You had a nightmare about him again?"

"Yes but I'm okay now Sincere"

I didn't want her to be worried about me. Sincere is a very bad stressor, and she is in Nursing school currently while working a full time job as a CNA. I didn't want to add onto that.

"Why don't you want to talk to me about it Serenity?"

She was looking at me with a very puzzled look on her face as she asked me. It looked as if she was longing for a conversation. I just can't though.

  It's not that I don't want to talk to her about it. She already know what's going on and I don't think there's anything she can do to stop the nightmares so there's no point in stressing about it.
