Chapter 1 : Who is That?

I walked into this unknown place. I see faces I have never seen before. But something is different about these people, their eyes were buttons. Little round black buttons with 4 holes in them, side by side. They start walking towards me, surrounding me. I freeze in horror. They kept walking towards me but one of them stood out the most. He was tall and had brunette hair. His eyes were buttons too but what made him stand out was his mouth. His mouth was sewn up, a needle hanging from the edge of his mouth. Why was he the only one with a sewn up mouth? He stood at the back of the crowd staring at me with his dark eyes. He was struggling, trying to open his mouth but his mouth was sewed shut. I open my mouth to scream b-

"MISS ROTH! MISS ROTH! WAKE UP." I heard a familiar voice scream. My heart was racing, my body was sweating. I open my eyes to see Miss Williams looking down at me.

"Are you okay Miss Roth?" She asked with a worried face.

Oh it was just the dream again. I've been having the same dream for the past 2 weeks. I sat straight up and lend on my bed's backboard.

"Yea, just a nightmare.." I whispered. It always feels so real, but in reality is was all just a nightmare.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Miss Williams said worried.

"Yes I'm fine, thank you are worrying." I smiled at her hiding my fears.

"Okay then, since it's 9 am you might as well get up." She said looking at me still concerned.

"I'm really okay.." I whispered.

"I know, as long as you know that I'm always here for you." She said.

"MISS WILLIAMS." A too familiar voice screamed from the hallway.

"Ah, that's my cue," She said before walking towards the door, "See you downstairs honey." She said before walking out of the room.

Miss Williams was the mum that I never had, she's basically the only person in the world that cares about me. You see I live in a orphanage, been here for almost 13 years. I got placed in this orphanage after the accident that occurred 13 years ago. This orphanage is actually a quite fancy one. I honestly am lucky to have been chosen to live here. But we do have to make our own money once we reach 15 years old and we do have strict guardians who take care of us. Rumour has it that Miss Tomlinson, the headmistress, is a old woman who killed her husband because he won a lottery but she wanted all the money. And then she opened an orphanage? Well I don't believe it, even though Miss Tomlinson is the scariest woman in the world, I doubt that she killed her husband. I live in a white mansion and share a room with a girl who is also around my age. She's a really deep sleeper so she can't hear shit when she's sleeping. I've been rooming with her ever since I got here.I share a room with a girl who is also around my age. She's a really deep sleeper so she can't hear shit when she's sleeping.

 I sighed realising that I had to get out of bed. Wait what day is it again...? I reach for my phone that was on my bedside table. I pick it up and turned it on. 22nd of October 2016. Oh it's a Saturday, for some odd reason I thought it was Monday. I roll out of bed and walked towards my closet, I stand there shivering. I'm currently wearing shorts and it's about 10 degrees outside, it's cold. I quickly open the weather app on my iPhone that I saved up for. Hmmm, highest 25 degrees. Cool it's gonna be a warm day! I then search through my closet for my outfit of the day. Haha I sound like one of those white tumblr girls, #OOTD! I giggle at myself.
