The Past Never Stays Buried

She thought the past was behind her.

She had spent a year trying to forget.

Forget the fear.
Forget the control.
Forget the person who had once promised her the world.

Eventually, she convinced herself that she had escaped.

Until one night, she wakes up somewhere she doesn't recognise.

She can't move.
She can't remember how she got there.

Then the door opens.

A man in a black suit walks towards her, a kitchen knife in his hand.

"You're awake."

Suddenly, the past doesn't feel so distant anymore.

Because some things can be hidden..

But the past never stays buried...
