The Fortitude

Dedicated to @oneDark_D, you've been awesome and to @AdamsWonu 😍

THE FORTITUDE.
I combed my long, black and kinky hair with the cream coloured comb I found on my shelf and packed the hair into a loose bun before walking to my wardrobe to choose a cloth.

After minutes of desperately searching for a suitable cloth, I decided to wear a grey short gown with long sleeves. It stopped inches before my knee and it looked so perfect.

Totally ignoring the loud knocks on my door, I stood before the full length mirror and smiled at the image that stared back at me.

Though I still looked weak and pale, I smiled at the strength and determination that was building up inside of me. It was more than enough.

Slowly, I let my hand caress my dry face. The scars from that day were still there. As my hands hovered over them, I willed myself to be lost in the brutality that resulted to them.

For minutes, I stood there. Squeezing my eyes tightly shut as my mental mind drifted very far away from my mortal body.

"Yes, Karleen. It's time to start from where you stopped. Now is the time. "

F's voice washed through my mind and I nodded.

I didn't know what awaited me. Death, despair, pain or destruction. Yet, I knew all this stress was worth what my soul desperately sought.

Unmoving, I let the new memories I've acquired replay. Noting every bit of the memories, I processed them though they were so ambiguous that my brain failed me.

I knew I might face worse things, I knew a time might come when no one will try to believe my innocence. Still, I knew that to exonerate myself I'll have to live through this hell I've been subjected to.

I walked back to my bad with a newly found hope and climbed my bed. Hugging my doll tight, I held my blue inked own in my hands and opened the pages of a yellow five-in-one hardcover notebook I had found on the shelf.
With firm hands, I wrote with a glint of hope. This was just the beginning... I'll bring out the Karleen inside of me.

Funny how I'm writing too. I don't know who I am, I can only believe what others say. Still, I'll start from where the past me stopped. It's time to become ME.
