I'm Not Crazy (Declamation Piece)

I'm Not Crazy

Oh! Hi there! Are you new here or you're just a visitor? A visitor? Well... welcome to Mental Hospital and you're welcome here! That's my room there and that's my bed over here. Oh! You can sit here next to me.

Uhm... Wait a sec. How did you get here? It's closed already and the entrance and exit doors are locked. Wow! I can't believe you're so sneaky like a spy.

But anyway, what brings you here? You wanna know how did I end up like this? Well... Believe me or not, I'm not crazy.

Hmm? You want me to explain more? Aww! You're so curious. Well... I am easy to talk to. So, listen up.

I have great parents. I love them so much! Yes! It is!

One day, we're at the park and having our great weekend. My dad gave a present. When I opened the basket, it was a cat. A yellow-eyed cat. He's black as deep dark night and I called him Mr. Midnight. Yeah! He's cute. I can't believe you love cats too.

Hmm? You wanna know what happened to my parents now?

Uhm... One night, me and Mr. Midnight watching our favorite show but suddenly, my mom screamed.

When I get out to my room, I saw my parents' bedroom opened slightly. I wanna know what happened to them. So I got closer and closer until I... I...

I saw them dead. Their body just tears apart and I don't know who killed them.

Yes! I know! This is terrible and their blood splattered everywhere and...

Huh?! Doctor! You interrupt my storytelling! I'm not talking to myself! I have a visitor here! Uhm...

But he's just right there! I'm talking to him about how the hell I end up like this!

How many times do I have to tell you that I'm not a murderer and I'm not crazy!

Why do I need to calm down?! This is madness! I don't wanna take that pills! It's red and it means its deadly!

Huh? What deal? Do you want me to stay here for what?!

You found what?! Huh? Really?! You found my kitty?! Where?

Oh! Mr. Midnight! I miss you so much! I thought you're dead after we ran away from our bloody house and... and I accidentally bumped my head to the stone so hard then I passed out and now we're here! Yey!

Okay. It's a deal.

Huh? What's this? Confidential File?

Whoa! Wait! The man I talking to is the same as this picture. He's also your patient here?

What?! He died yesterday?!

Uhm... I guess... I need some rest.

But you need to remember this. I'm an innocent and smart little girl. I love my parents but now I have nowhere to go because I don't have any relatives.

And one more thing.

I'm not crazy.

That's all and thank you.
