I Love My Captor?
It was a nice day, and I did not know that what I dreamed of at night would become my new reality…
My sister, Sapphire, and I were playing with our toy horses. I heard our parents start yelling, “Oh shit, they’re here!” Our mom, ran downstairs with our dad and older sister and said, “Saphira, take Sapphire and HIDE, I will be back for you!” And so I did.
I take my sister and hide in the safest place in the house, in the Safe. We sit and wait for our mom to come back. I was starting to lose hope when I heard a knock, once, then twice, then three times. It was my mom, and she had used our secret knock!
I opened the door and saw her, my mom, ready to beat the shit out of anyone. “Quickly!” she said, “before they come down here!” As if she had jinxed us heavy footsteps came down the stairs, “Run,” I said, "I'll cover for you!" "No!" was my mom's firm reply, "it's not safe!" "They will kill you, not me," I said. "let me do this, I love you."
My mother leaves with Sapphire and I am left, in the middle of the room, having never felt so alone before.
