We would see each other at school and parties but when I saw him alone, he was a different person.
He was my anchor but I never knew I was his distraction. He used me but I didn't know what for...
I've taken every single drug but he was my drug, he...
"Tell me Yasmine, TELL ME THE TRUTH!" The man yelled at me and I flinched of how loud his voice was.
I brought my knees to my stomach as I sat down on the bed and I was trembling with fear. "Do you know why your mother sent you to this asylum?" I shook my head no.
"Because you're crazy and most importantly....he doesn't love you anymore." I lifted my head and looked at him confused.
I mumbled "You don't know that." He got closer to me and spat "YES I DO! This is all your fault that nobody wants you! You're mom left you and so did your Dad, even that woman who you thought was your mom!"
I stayed silent and I heard someone knocking on the door. The door opened and I saw Kendall holding a knife at me. Oh shit!
"NOOOO!" I cried and I ran to the door but the man grabbed my wrist and pulled me back.

"HELP!" I screamed at the top of my lungs as Kendall came towards me with the knife.
~ My eyes opened by hearing rattling from the door. It was being unlocked and when it was, I saw my mom standing by the door holding a glass of Orange Juice.
"Morning, did you have a good rest?" She gave me a soft smile but I just rolled my eyes. "Not really, I was dreaming about being in a mental asylum."
"Why?-" "Because my mother decided to lock me in my own room and treat me as if I was in one!" I snapped at her.
She sat down on the bed and put the glass on the stand. "Listen I'm trying to be a good mother and I know that your last mom got driven to suicide. Yesterday you were acting really crazy and I don't want you to do the same thing, I can't bare losing another child." Mom frowned and I saw that her eyes were looking glossy, telling me that she was going to cry.
I put my hand over hers and nodded. "It'll Be Okay Mom, I'm not going anywhere, I won't leave you." "Thank you." She smiled and she gave me a hug.
~ I was getting ready for school so I quickly jumped into the shower. I was never going to use a bath ever again and showers seemed safer for me.
When I got out of the shower, I wrapped the towel around me and I went towards the sink mirror so I could brush my hair. The second I faced the sink, I noticed something.
There was fog on the mirror and on the mirror was writing. "Three times a charm -Kendall." I read out and I wondered what she meant.
I thought for a second and I realised that Kendall's tried to hurt me twice. First time was at the school, then at home when she was going to drown me but when's the next time?
Fear was taking over my body and I grabbed my phone from the side and I dialled Allison's number. "Hello." She answered. "Ally I need your help, I think Kendall's trying to kill me." I choked out.
~ Allison and I were walking to school and I was explaining to her what happened yesterday.
"What the fuck is her problem, why can't she just leave you alone?!" Allison said pissed off. I shrugged "I don't know but I can't tell the police about it or else they'll get my social worker involved again and they might send me back to the home."
"I-I just can't tell anyone." I finished.
"Who can't you tell?" Ethan cane from behind me and I jumped. My heart started to race and I looked at Allison.
"Erm Nothing." I lied. Allison raised her eyebrow and glared at me.
"Ethan, Yaz has something to tell you." She quickly said and she ran off, leaving me with Ethan alone. ALLISON YOU FUCKING BITCH!
"What do you wanna tell me?" Ethan asked as he crossed his arms and stared at me. I took a deep breath and I didn't answer back.
He noticed that something was wrong and I was starting to tense up. "Woah are you okay?" He put his hands on my shoulder and tried to help me calm down. I shook my head "No I'm not, it's-"
"You know you can tell me anything right?" He gave me a soft smile. Just say it!
"Kendall came to my house again yesterday and today this morning. Sh-she tried to kill me." I choked and I covered my mouth so I wouldn't cry. Ethans eyes widened and his jaw dropped.
"Wha-how did this happen?!" "I don't know but she tried to drown me in the bath tub and this morning she wrote a message on the mirror whilst I was in the shower."
He ran his fingers through his hair and sighed. "What did your mom say about it?" "She didn't believe me because by the time my mom went to the bathroom, all the water was cleaned up and Kendall was gone. Instead my mom locked me in my bedroom because she thought I was going crazy."
He sighed "Damn it Kendall!"
Ethan turned his back to me and I put my hand on his shoulder, signalling him to look at me. He lifted his head and made eye contact. "Why is she doing this to me?" My voice cracked.
He shook his head "I don't know and I don't know how to stop it but what I do know is that it's not safe if you stay at your house again." I raised my eyebrow "I can't leave my mom, what if something happens to her?"
"Nothing will happen to your mom, if Kendall wanted to hurt her then she would've done it by now. She's only out to get you." True.
We both stayed silent for a minute and Ethan held my injured hand and he looked at him. One of the cuts was peeking out and he touched it with the pad of his thumb.
A tear streamed down his cheek and he shut his eyes tightly. "I can't let this happen to you again." He said referring to my injuries.
I didn't want him to feel bad for Kendall's mistakes and I didn't know what to say back. We were both stuck in a bad position at this point.
I took my other hand and cupped his cheek with it. "We'll get through this, that's what you always say to me." I smiled and he gave one back.
He held my hand as we walked together but after a minute, he stopped. A smirk formed on his face and he looked at me "Why don't we skip school today?" I raised my eyebrow "I can't do that, my mom will kill me.
I was about to walk off but he grabbed my wrist and pulled me back. "Your moms not gonna find out though. We can go back to my place." "Ethan I don't-"
"The house is empty, Graysons not home." He smirked at me and I stopped for a second.
I rolled my eyes and a small smile formed on my face. "I knew you'd say yeah." He chuckled and we both turned around and started walking to his house.
