Sophie's pov

I remember something dark and heavy falling on me, crushing my bones and my muscles under its weight, as well as my sanity.
I fall into the darkness that comes when I'm most vulnerable and helpless, letting it swallow me whole.

I remember people talking in hushed voices, then the weight was lifted off me and I felt myself being lifted off the ground. I heard sounds of the ambulance, feets shuffling, then soft fabric on my back, and more shuffling noises.

I remember my hands being touched gently, people putting tubes onto my nose and mouth, and the soft beeping of the machines nearby. They asked me some questions, I desperately wanted to reply, but the voice I used to own seemed to separate itself from me, leaving me unable to talk.
The last thing I remembered was a faint yellow light adjusted to my face, and a dark shape injecting something into my arm and drowsiness washed over me.

I fell down..
    down..
        down....
            and down...

It was always down, and there's no way out this time.

The beast inside me roared, thousands of painful flashbacks dragged me deeper, and deeper into the dark; until I am no longer able to see the light but only darkness and cold.

"Go Sophie, you can do this. One step in front of the other." daddy said to me, pushing me forwards for momentum.
I took his advice, putting one foot in front, then another.
"Look daddy! I'm walking!" I shrieked happily, turning to only see that no one's there anymore except for a field of grass, swaying to the breeze.

—-----

"Daddy!! Why did you leave me?" I said when I finally found my daddy. I went to the kindergarten I used to go to and they helped called my parents.
"I was just testing you honey." Daddy said bitterly.
"She's just not as good as I am." My little sister - Amy said smirking at me.
She knew that daddy and mommy always liked her more, and despite me.
"Now, now Amy, let's not be rude to your sister." mommy said, I let out a sigh of relief. Finally someone who sympathizes with me!
Then she turned to me and said, "Let's go to the supermarket and buy ingredients for tonight's dinner, shall we?"

—-------------

"Mommy?" I asked, tugging on my clothes.
I saw a person looking like mommy walking away, and getting in a car along with people who I assumed was my sister and daddy.
"MOMMY!!" I yelled on the top of my lungs, but they did not turn back. I raced after the car but soon, I got tired and sat by the sidewalks, sobbing.

"Who hit Cannelle?" the principal of foster care asks, bringing in a girl with black hair and blue eyes who's fake crying and smirking at me.
All gaze turned to me, and the people who used to be my friend pointed to me. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. OF. THEM. NO ONE, no one, stood up for me.
"Miss Foster!" the principal shouted. "One more time, then I'm throwing you OUT!!"
"B-b-but... I didn't do it!" I said, but no one believed me.

—-------

"Can we please have Miss Foster in the office now? Miss Foster to the office."
I stood up from where I was sitting, playing with myself and walked across the room, all eyes on me.
"You have requests for adoption, be nice and don't ruin this like any other interviews you did." the principal said, meaning that if I didn't pass this, it'll be no supper for me again.
I walked into the room where 2 people sat, talking and seemingly discussing something.
"Hi?" I said.
They both turned to me, both looking kind and welcoming.
"We would like to adopt her." They said in unison, smiling at me.

"You freak!" Stina said, on the first day of elementary school in which I told them about my backstory.
"You'll never be a true daughter of the Ruewens, you don't even deserve their kindness and love!"

A few guys and girls snickered, I went to the corner and cried silently to myself.

—---------

I saw light, getting brighter and brighter. Destroying all the painful flashbacks I was having, and replacing them with warmth and kindness.

I heard muffled voices, I'm only able to make out a few words.
"doctor"
"awake?"
"medicine"
"machine"
Which did not help the throbbing headache I'm currently having. I usually don't react this big to headaches since I have them all the time but this one is different, it's like it wants to get under my skin and bones to tear my brain apart.
I groaned out loud, my vision is still blurry but I can see 2 people coming at me. They're probably the doctor and the nurse.

Then my vision tunneled and I blacked out.
