Truth

She didn't know why, but she was running.

She didn't know who or what she was running from, but the adrenaline continued to rush into her blood.

"HEY GET BACK HERE!"

"ALERT! ALERT! A PATIENT HAS ESCAPED!" A loud voice coming from the group of guards echoed through the hallways, but she had to keep running, no clue of where she would end up to.

Things might've been merciful to her when a janitor's closet caught her eye down the left hallway. She looked behind her, not seeing the horde of guards anywhere.

She sprinted to the janitor's closet, opening the door with such haste and she locked it. She looked around and she let out a relieved sigh as she slid down the door, hugging her knees closer to her chest.

She heard loud and plenty footsteps from outside. She placed her ear closer to the door to hear if they were near. Once she heard the footsteps fade into oblivion and silence, she sighed once again.

Tears started to fall on her cheek while she hugged her knees closer. She wanted to escape this place for so long. They hurt her way too much, treated her like some object, she wanted to be free.

Suddenly, her human body started to shrink, completely transforming into a body of a blonde kitten. She panicked, not knowing what to do now she's in this form.

The kitten needed to think of a way to escape this place. Lucky for her, a window caught her eye. The kitten saw a knob that allowed the window to open up.

She took her chances. She jumped as high as she can, landing perfectly on the window's ledge. The kitten did all of her effort to outstretch her short limbs to push down the knob, unlocking the door and she used her paw to push it open.

The blonde kitten jumped out of the window with no hesitations, landing perfectly on the ground. She sprinted away from the institution without looking back.

Mina's eyes snapped open.

She got up, gasping. She was catching her breath while the thumping of her heart quickened every second that passed. The dream still felt surreal to her. She tightly clutched the blanket and she pulled it closer to her. She still doesn't know why she gets those kinds of dreams over and over. She felt all these emotions in her dreams, the fear, the adrenaline. It felt like it actually happened.

Weird.

She looked around and noticed the empty side of the bed. She sighed, remembering that Momo had left for school today.

She then heard some footsteps coming from outside, and it was getting nearer to the room. Mina panicked, she quickly and quietly made her way to Momo's closet to hide. Fortunately for her, she fits.

"Hana, Momo left some of her books again." Mina heard Momo's mom's voice from outside. She snickered and playfully rolled her eyes. She then heard Momo's older sister's faint groan from the other room.

"Again? Ugh, do I have to go to school just to bring it to her?" Mina jolted a bit once she hears the bedroom door creak open. She slightly, very carefully opened the closet door to take a peek. She saw Momo's mother looking around the room.

"Where could her books be?" Momo's mom asked herself. She then searched around for a bit and she saw some books under the bed from the right side. The mother disapprovingly shook her head. "Aish...this kid..."
