She made her own freedom... Little did she know her captivity was protecting her life.
When I was eight, my dad destroyed my identity and imprisoned me in a safe house. I don't know why he did it. But I guess it doesn't matter much because I'm running away. It's time for me to break free, see the world, live.
At least, that's what I thought... before they came for me.
