JEANNE

Chapter 11- Eager to leave

I woke up the next morning and someone came in and put a straight jacket on me and I didn't even have a shirt on. I remember just sitting in the corner on my bed slowly drifting to sleep every once and a while. I remember right before lunch the mask on my face started digging into my skin and hurting but I couldn't situate it.

After about 4 hours of the flickering light slowly turning me insane I heard the dead bolts on the huge door click and I saw the door opening. The outside light was blinding. I squinted my eyes and the same person that came in to take my straight jacket off before lunch yesterday was standing before me again. I got my straight jacket and mask taken off then about 5 min later Ms. walker brought my lunch to me to me again. I once again didn't eat and I just waited for Mia to come visit.

About 5 hours later of pure boredom and talking to the voices in my head I heard a knock on the door. It was Mia. I was so excited to see her. I leaped to the door and she started talking to me. She said that she wants to take me somewhere when she gets me out of this cell tomorrow or Thursday, when ever she has a chance to see me. We just randomly talked for a bit then she left and I went to sleep for the night. They only served lunch in this place apparently.

Today was the day that Mia got the code. I did the same routine as yesterday and waited for her. She never came that day and I became worried that she might have gotten caught. I didn't sleep at all that night. I was so worried about the possibilities of why she didn't come.

The next morning I heard a banging on my door and it had to be really early in the morning because I was so tired I could barley build enough strength to open my eyes but I eventually got up and went to my door. Once I saw Mia it felt like a great stress lifted off my shoulders. My eyes opened wide. "Mia! Where were you yesterday you scared m-"
"Shhhhh!!! Shut up! You wanna wake everyone up?!" She whispered in a yelling manor. I quickly covered my mouth and then took my hand off and mouthed the word sorry. She rolled her eyes and pulled a piece of paper what looked like out of her bra. I laughed a little but she paid no attention to me. She looked at the paper and typed in the code. I heard a few buttons then the dead bolts unlock. I closed my eyes and whispered "yesss!" She opened the door and quickly pulled me out of my silent celebration. We walked a little further down the hall and came to this huge black door that said "lost and found. Staff only" on it. She picked the lock and made it look so easy. You could tell she has been doing this for years.
