It was the truth that swirled in his mind for days like a loose thread on his favorite sweater that he could never resist pulling despite knowing that it could all unravel around him.

He was afraid of the truth. He knew by saying it out loud he's accepting the fact that she might not be with him anymore.

But he couldn't resist his inner mind whispering to him

She deserved it, she destroyed you.

"You did as asked?" His voice came out thick and husky, due to the sleepless days he spent thinking and re-thinking if his decision was right.
He was resting his head against the wooden table with a face of utter nonchalance as if he's merely waiting for a bus on a spring day.

" She is in the room, Boss." the other man said, both hands casually in his jeans' pockets, muscles relaxed. He's almost smiling-smiling as if something good had just happened, as if he didn't just commit a murder.

"Good, Have you checked her pulse first? Made sure she died, we don't want any problems now do we ?" He asked his usual lazy smirk on.

The other man scratched the back of his neck nervously, " I did bang her head several times, Boss. She sure didn't live with the pool of blood I left her swimming in."he tried to crack a joke to ease the tension in the room, making a mental note to himself to later check on her, stick a note with the name and date as usual, maybe a pink one? He remembered she loved pink Or maybe a yellow with a doodle of a unicorn?
That'd be so cool.
He chuckled quietly to himself imagining his boss' face if he saw a unicorn note stuck on her dead body, that'd be hilarious.

"Day dreaming again? Didn't your punishment serve you well last time ?"

" Sorry, Boss. Let me go check on her."

"No, I will go." He said boldly, standing up to retrieve his keys from the wooden table.
With a final nod to the other man, he left the room.

The air is strangely heavy and damp,pressing against her soft pale skin like a clammy shroud.
She was awakened by the dull pain underlying the numbness in her right arm, enveloped by the strange stench of something rotten.
Her brain was awake now, and with a primal surge of adrenaline she tries to stand up but her cold heavy limbs disobey.

Ugh, come on you're not staying here all day.

Her subconscious scold at her, making her rub away the sleep fogging her vision and with the support of the wall she pushes herself up.

Good, now we have to find a way out from that so creepy place.

She looked around her trying not to cringe at the sight of bloodied walls, The room was windowless, and there was no way out except the door.

She ran to the door trying not to trip over one of the messily lying corpses
But obviously, it was locked.

As if someone as creepy as the one in charge of this place, who probably has a weird interest in killing people or tutoring them or doing whatever he does to them, would leave the door unlocked.

She snorts at the thought, wondering how the hell would she get out of this place.

And as if a light bulb had just appeared on her head giving her an idea, she quickly searched her hair for a bobby pin.

How could you forget you stupid that's basically the best idea to open a door, don't you watch films ?

Actually, if you were in my place you would be as stupid as I am right now so SHUT UP.

You're scolding me ? I just gave you an idea!

SHUT UP!!

She faceplamed herself for her childish act, its clearly not a good time to argue with her subconscious.

"Focus" she whispered to herself.
She then picked up the bobby pin and with her teeth, removed the rounded tip from it. After that, she started roughly straightening it and placing the shorter, closed end,of the bobby pin into the lower part of the keyhole and with the right pressure applied, she twisted it and opened the door.

The cold air blew against her like a rude subway passenger trying to destroy her comfort.
And the old, yellow and brown leaves hustled in the wind, as the sounds of dead, weak trees, creaked at every push the wind gave. It seemed like it's the beginning of fall and the air felt colder than an ice cube, as it climbed through her smeared with blood leather jacket to the bottom of her spine making her shiver in return.

The shuffle of footsteps brought her back from her little daydreaming and she started to run allowing the cold air to brush through her curly bangs.

Faster. Faster. Faster.

Her long, ash coloured locks whipped back and forth behind her like a fiery tale as she flung herself over sharp rocks and heavy tree trunks. She didn't know where she was nor did she know where she was heading. She had no idea what time it was and she had no clue what day. All she knew was she had to keep running forward. Not stopping for anything.

She quickened her pace to an all out sprint, running away from everything.

From the unknown past that's hunting her,

from the questions that wanted to eat the inside of her brain,
that desired to conquer her body.

From the person she became she knew nothing about.

She ran and ran, as fast as her skinny legs would carry her, not looking back.

Tears streamed down her face and her chest wallowed for a breath. Her rasping throat was as parched as a dead lizard in the desert sun and her eyes felt heavy in their sockets.

She was so focused on running away from the footsteps she felt were rushing after her, that she didn't notice the large wall she hit, or more specifically the hard chest she hit.

She fell to the ground gasping for a breath, silently praying to God that wasn't the person who kidnapped her.

Her silent prayers were cut short as she looked up,

Blue eyes stared back at her, mouth agape. And in a very faint whisper, that she barely heard, he spoke

" Ella?"
