A Child's Cry
Chapter 3
The blue eyed angel
I was awaken again in the middle of the night. Again my nightmares plagued my dreams yet still I won't say a word. Not if
I want out of here. I walked to the door again and began to pound on it causing it to rattle. The memory of the day I was brought
here replaying over and over in my mind. Then I stopped. I thought I had heard something so I stayed perfectally still. It sounded
like foot steps and heavey breathing coming from down the hall. Surpriseingly I wasn''t scared and I wasn't panicing.
I shrugged it off and walked back over to my bed. I layed down and again let sleep overcome me. An hour later I was awakened
by the nurse coming to give me my morning pills. She handed me a new Nightgown that went to the middle of my thighs and it had
little slits up the sides. "Hurry up and get ready you have a visitor."she said walking out and letting me get dressed. ~A visitor...for me
I...I wonder who it could be.~ I finished getting ready and called the nurse and told her.
She walked ot of my cell and down the hall where I heard her talking to someone. Then I heard her coming back to my cell.
I sat on my bed my back against the side wall and put my head in my hands and closed my eyes. Trying to sort out my thoughts.
She walked up to my cell and opened the door. I heard someone walk in and the nurse telling him to tell her when hes done.
I didn't want to look. I was afraid it was no one but the doctor. Then I remembered THE DOCTOR! I looked up and half thought
it was him. When I saw someone else. He had cerulean blue eyes and he was staring at me. "Why do you stare?? Is there something
on my face??"I asked. He looked me up and down and kinda smiled. "I don't beleive I know you....." I started but was cut off.
"Yes you do know me. I'm surprised that you don't remember me."he said laughing. I stared at him puzzled at first but then I realized
who it was.
He took off his cap to reveal dark red hair. This can't be real.....he's here hes actually here. "What are you doing here?"I asked.
he smiled again and hugged me. "I saw you yesterday and I now knew where you were so I decided to come visit you."
I looked outside of the glass door. "You really miss life outside of these walls don't you?'He still had his arms around me. "Well when
all you see are grey walls for 5 years....yah I want out." i said looking into his eyes.
"So tell me Anthony...how have you been?Whats new in the outside world?" I was happy..yet I didin't show it. I don't know happiness
anymore so i'm not sure exactrly how to show it. "Its wonderfull there are so many cool rock bands. When you get out I'm going to
take you to Hot Topic and buy you anything you want..."he stopped when he saw my face. The look in my eyes. "What...whats
wrong?"he asked obviously worried. "You mean IF I ever get out of here." I layed down on mu bed.
"You'll get out of here I promise you that baby...I promise."He said pulling me into a hug. "Baby....I haven't been called that since...I
was 5."I said. I couldn't smile....I've forgotten how to. I know not how to laugh either. "I got to go. I'll come back on Friday I promise."
he said hugging me. I nodded and said goodbye. The nurse had come to allow him out and I walked up to the door pressing my
face against the window to see him leave. ~If only you were right cousin.....if only you were right.~
I walked back to my bed and pulled out my notebook and pen. I had alot on my mind and to form words of a morbid poem was
what I lived for.
Broken lullaby
of a forgotten voice
the melodic whispers
carried with the wind
a broken lullaby
born from sin
its torchered harmony
haunts the sky
it invades your thoughts
and makes you cry
the wind whispers to the trees
and the trees to the sky
listen closely for
this broken lullaby.
I sat my back against the wall. I put the book back underneath my matress and crawled underneath the small space underneath
my bed. It was after all the only dark place I could find out of thisd whole stupid room. I sat there....staring into the darkness of
nothing. I'm alone, no one to talk to.......no one to care for me or love me or....or comfort me. I started to cry. The first time in 5
years and I cried like a child would cry for its mother. How I hated this morgue.
I guess I had fell alseep because I woke up to the opening of my door. I crawled out only to come face to face with Dr. M.
"Hello Tomoyo what are you doing underneath the bed?"he asked. "I looked at him quickly running my hands over my face.
I was tired but the lights were hurting my eyes so I crawled under the bed."I lied. I had become very good at lying. "I see well I
have some good news and some bad news which would you like first?"he asked.
"Ummmm.....good news, I guess."i said sitting down on my bed."Well good news I got the baoard to agree to release you."he
said smiling at me. "And the bad news?"I asked. "Well there is no bad news really....I just had to throw that in there....sorry."
I nodded. "Its ok....thats fine. So when am I being released??"I asked eager to know although I didn't show it. "You will be released
on Saturday."he said hugging me onvce more. "Thank you. For everything you've done and for ta,king care of me these past
5 years." He smiled and walked out of my cell.
