I'm next

Chapter 2

The man left me in a growing pool of my own blood,but only after whipping me a total of thirty times. Not long after he left,a girl who was probably two years my senior making her about eighteen,came Ito the room. The girl was carrying a bowl in which I could hear water sloshing around within.

I let out a pitiful whimper as a few swallows worth of water were pored into my mouth. I was able to swallow only a little but I'm sure my stomach was in no position to take more.

I tried not to scream as the girl began to clean my tore back with the remaining water and a rag she had somewhere on her person. I could tell that she was trying to be gentle but her attempts to do so only made the pain worse. So much so,I passed out before she was half done.

I awoke again,groggy from the aching pain on my back and confused with my new surroundings. Instead of a cold floor,I was laying on a soft mattress with gray sheets,blankets,and pillows. My ankles were still chained but I knew not to what I was chained to and I didn't have the energy to find out. I slowly raised myself from laying on my stomach to kneeling on the bed,the whole time conscious of my back.

I could now see the friendly looking white walls illuminated by a single plain light bulb and one white  door with a brass knob. I slowly clambered out of the warm sheets and over to the door only to find that the chain on my ankle stopped me just short of the door. I could only assume that it was locked and then wondered why I had bothered to even check the door. I was in no condition to escape or runaway and I had no idea where I was or where I could run to.

I sighed and sat carefully on the bed as the brass knob jiggled and turned. I started to tremble as the door opened and the man who had whipped me walked in. I cowered under his cold glare and quickly bowed my head submissively.
