She looked out the window, just like she did every night. The stars and the moon were outside, so close to her, but still so far away.
Seven years has she been stuck here.
Seven years of torturing and pain, all because that stupid mistake she made seven years ago. But if she had the chance, she wouldn't change her decision. No, she preferred suffering alone, at least that was better then have your loved ones suffering for you.
Yes, there was a time that she tried to escape this horrible place, but how could she now? How could she leave, knowing that the thing she lived for those seven years would suffer in her place?She would do anything to give it a better life, so she stayed, even if there was a way to escape.
Suddenly, she heard a noise downstairs.
Visitors? They never had visitors. He made shore she wouldn't get any information about what was going on in this lost and mental world.
It was his way of protecting her, he once said.
She heard his voice commanding an other creature down the hall. She heard an other familiar voice, but after all these years she forgot who his owner was. She heard a third creature, it didn't say anything but it made a lot of noise.
She knew he had wanted her to stay in her room and act like nothing was going on, but her curiosity won the battle.
Slowly, she got up and made her way to her chamber door. The door opened with much creaking.
The two voices were gone, but the third person was still sitting on the ground of the the hallway.
As quiet as she could she walked down to the stairs. Only to be frozen on top of it when the person on the floor turned his head to her and she looked into the eyes she once tried to save.
