"Good morning." Elena wrote in her diary."This is day 11- of me be being home. Home. This place that looks like it appears to be a place of fairy tales. And here one more photo of me. Look at her. So graceful, a lady. Confident.
Me. Me? Who is really me? I wish I can press a restart button somewhere inside of me and get everything back. Or just go. Leave everything. Go far away from it all. But then there is him. Yesterday was not a good day. And I hurt him. I don't want to hurt him. He is so good. Good to me. He. Elijah. I so loved him they say. Love. I don't know if I love him. I know that I don't hate him. Why did I say that hated him. But I am now this fragile bird to him in this place. This place. This golden cage.'
Elena stared at the photo for a while as if compelled. Then at the photo of Elijah that apparently she had taken.
Then got up, taking the house keys and her camera and went out.

At this very moment Elijah and Rebekah were walking to a diner. He was retelling her what had happened the night before. Elena had left the house without notifying anyone, not even the cleaning lady. And was gone for hours.
"She didn't even take her phone?" Rebekah asked.
"No. And I just - I was so mad with worry. I know I overreacted-" Elijah explained sighing a little.
"So- tell me you lost it- when she came back?"
"No- I am not like that, Bex!! I approached her calmly- Dr Bennett said that bringing any emotional stress is a no-no. I just pointed out that she had to tell someone- me- that she is going out, and take her phone the next time she goes out."
"She lost it?" Rebekah asked.
"Yeah, well- not that bad. But it was like a drop too much in a glass that was already full. She screamed at me that she hated me, that she felt like we are keeping her in a prison, that she was fed up with everyone treating her like she lost her mind. She stormed off into her room. And - well, I let her be. Called Dr Bennett, who came over." Elijah explained.
