Zoey's POV
Insanity.
Such a simple phrase that sparks instant fear in the hearts of those around you. Such a simple word. One word that can shatter any façade of normalcy you might've once had. One word that ruptured my entire world. One word that killed my parents.
My sister and I knew we were crazy. I mean, Mom and Dad had to have locked us in the madhouse for a reason. But we didn't know what exactly was wrong with us. No one did. They just kept saying we were insane.
"They're insane. They're insane."
I've heard that every day for ten - eleven years now - every day I am here. I know I'm crazy. They've said it enough! But what's wrong with us?
If no one can tell you what's wrong, is there anything wrong at all?
I know something is wrong with me. I knew that the day I turned sixteen and he showed up. The boy that no one else could see. At first, he was just a glimpse. Fast, and gone. Here, gone.
Then his voice whispered in my head. Softly, saying my name, saying he loved me. Saying that one day he'd save us. . . Take us somewhere away from here. Somewhere far, far away.
I believe him. I know that he will save us.
I may be crazy, but my sister isn't. She doesn't belong here, with the other nuts.
I do.
I've come to peace with my fate, knowing I cannot escape it. And thinking I might not want to. After all, I do have that boy coming for me. One day, he will come. One day, I will be free.
One day, insanity will no longer plague me.
Welcome to the funhouse.
