I still don't know much
The nurses have told me the basics
My name is Annie Marie Wheelhouse
I've been in a coma for two years
The coma was caused by a head injury I acquired during a car accident
I was kidnapped three days after my sixteenth birthday
I escaped four months after being kidnapped
And that's when I had my car accident
I was running
I was running from my kidnapper
They never found him
But he's one of the few things I remember
Mr. Miller
My history teacher
He kidnapped me
Beat me
Raped me
And still had the nerve to visit me in the hospital
He was that sinister voice
The one I was so terrified of
It was him
I told the nurses about him yesterday
Apparently police marched into school
Arrested him and dragged him to jail
Can you believe he continued teaching?
He's going to rot in jail
Thankfully
My father was the first and last voice I heard
He says he used to visit me every day
The nurses told him I wasn't going to make it
But he still had hope
He kept me on life support
Paid every bill the hospital threw at him
He loves me
He visited today
He lives out of town so it took awhile for him to get here
But he's here now, and that's all that matters
