Sunset Academy here I come, finally I won't have to worry about Esther he is long gone. I walked which was more like a sprint to the main office and got my key and schedule. As I turned the key to my dorm room I felt an unsettling feeling. Just what I thought I shut the door feeling the tears on my face and then a voice says, "You can't get rid of me that easily, darling." I clenched my fists closing my eyes and trying to forget my pain, but I can't. He then says, "What are you just going to stand there?" I walked to my bags and started unpacking, ignoring him as he picked bones from his teeth. Then I heard knocking on the door and with that Esther was gone. I opened the door and there was girl standing there shyly. She mumbled "I'm Katelyn, I was told to tell you that you don't have classes today. You have them tomorrow, due to an error in the system. Oh, and you can head to lunch in the dining area at 12:00 and head back to your dorm from there. Tomorrow I will come back and take you to your classes, so be ready by 8:30 a.m." then she walked away and left me there.
I felt very melancholy watching her walk away, leaving me with Esther. Who just as she walked away pulled me away from the door, slamming it behind me. I tried to get out of his grip but he wouldn't let me go, so I gave up. I cried, knowing I would never be free to live a good life. Then he wiped the tears from my eyes and pulled me toward him, he never acted like this before. He was hugging me but why? He has been nothing but rude to me. Then he whispered, "I watched you grow up I scared you and terrorized you for as long as you can remember. The thing is I wasn't always like this, I guess it's because I am a monster." I looked up at him and wiped the tears from my eyes, "You've done nothing but hurt me and make me feel like nothing." He glanced away and said, "I'm sor-" He stared at me and his face grew angered. He shoved me onto the ground and left.
