I woke up to the sound of birds chirping and distant traffic, my eyes puffy and red, my hand and my vagina sore, what was i thinking?
Why did i do that? What's wrong with me? What have i become? The questions that kept swimming through my mind as a blank and cold expression took over my face a single tear rolled down my face as i began to think of everything that has happened to this day…
I would break down but this time was different…
I can't feel…
I can't speak…
I'm just… numb
i sit up and stare blankly at the wall, everything around it becoming less and less clear, everything slowly fading away…
Warm tears flow down my cheeks as i stare blankly and expressionlessly…
I hear footsteps outside but i don't care what happens next, i don't care about anything right now, i just want to die…
"Sam!?"…"Samantha?!"…I hear two familiar voices calling out my name but i'm too numb to look or care. The footsteps get closer and closer until the voices are echoing through the same walls i sit between…
"Samantha!"…I hear as the footsteps get faster and closer. My gaze doesn't escape the wall and the tears don't stop…
I feel hands grabbing at me and shaking me. "Samantha what happened? Are you ok?" I turn my gaze slowly over to a familiar silhouette, staring blankly and empty into her eyes, tears still rushing. Concern dresses her body like a cloak once she sees my face…
Empty…
Void…
Numb…
Eyes red and puffy, looking dead in every aspect…
Every breath forced with pain...
“We heard you left the hospital but we haven't heard of you since.” I can't force out any words in response as it is already tough to breathe. Nor do i want to speak in the first place. The images keep flashing over and over in my head, laying on my bed only to get raided soon after, my body invaded, innocence faded, my face and my body stained by blood and illegal lust, so many crimes in a day, so much bloodshed.
My thoughts are interrupted by a hand on my shoulder, causing a static feeling to zap along my body causing me to violently flinch, moving away from the hand in pure fear, heart racing, breathing intensifying as i try to analyze the situation. I close myself, curling up and wrapping my arms around my knees and shaking.
The familiar faces drift closer and closer and i curl up tighter. Their hands go up causing me to flinch once again. “It's ok, Samantha. It's me, Mary, i'm with my boyfriend Carl, remember us? We're never going to hurt you.” This sentence made my eyes start to pour even more than before, my face slowly giving in to the sadness and before i know it, i'm breaking down again. I get up to hold Mary, all i needed was a hug and i couldn't help but just break down in her arms. Her breathing matches mine as she begins to cry too, looking over to Carl who soon joins us, being the strong one to hold us both, sharing his care and his warmth with us both, he wraps his arms around us and does his best to comfort us.
I soon fall tom y knees, my body completely breaking down as Mary who's a little stronger than me, maneuvers me to the ground and Carl being the strongest, holding us together and providing the comfort we all desperately need at this point. I can tell that neither of us have ever seen Mary break down like this. Did something happen to her that she hasn't told anyone?
I've never felt this type of comfort in my life and this is what i needed. This is the type of comfort that i've always wanted, but could never receive...
Everything fades away…
