Allow me to introduce you to a girl named Melissa. She is a fifteen year old, lower class girl with very strange habits, thoughts, and actions that no one quite understands.673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73twskUbzY

“I have to keep moving. If I stop moving, I'll surely die.”673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7H08xFEL8
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0C7SLe4MH
These were the words that ran through Melissa’s mind every day. Everyday, she would find something to do from the second she woke up, until the second she would go to sleep.673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAubTnelw3V
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoVDSPYzk1
“Every minute of every day, I can’t stop moving. Not even for a second.”673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITRGpLEITE
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRDyVPb6kf
Melissa always needed something to do. When she was desperate for something, she would go as far as starting fights at school to land herself detention for the next few days. Of course, her parents were unaware of why she was causing trouble, never telling them why.673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhSLHNv72q

“Don’t think about it, don’t stop moving.”673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD6uxGHywp
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIHCYcioT4
Of course, you must be wondering why she thinks like this by now. Maybe she was abused at home, maybe she feared going home, and maybe she had a fear of not being noticed in the world. These were common reasons that her fellow classmates passed back and forth at school, unaware that every one of their explanations were wrong.673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5B1XycWxI

“Don’t look at yourself, just keep going.”673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbXOUdCSty

Many people also asked questions about her appearance. About how she always came to school with knotted hair and wearing baggy, winter like clothes; never showing any skin with the exception of her face and hands. It was no secret that she was lower class, not being able to afford things that everyone else had, such as a cellphone.673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBrUCIVaWP

“Just keep moving, you know what will happen if you stop.”673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRmGGla6nq

Only Melissa knew the answers to all the burning questions that were asked, but she didn’t care. She didn’t care that she was talked about, she didn’t care if people feared her, she didn’t care if she got in trouble, she needed to keep moving. She wanted to live.673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK7IfkII5d

“You are weak, but moving will keep you strong.”673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj9FxpeZCQ
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLbE9Qjju6
She knew she wouldn’t be able to control her urges if she stopped moving, she knew that if she stopped for even a second to look at her reflection, she would surely die at her own hands. One night, her mind got the better of her, however. With her parents gone, she had no one to keep her occupied. All it took was sitting down for a mear three seconds for the urge to hit her hard.673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7NeTrJILQ

“No, I can't let my mind win over my body.”673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPr5pxgEZk
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7bejcZdZP
She got up to make herself something to eat. She thought she was safe, now having another activity to do. But, she was sadly mistaken. As soon as the knife was firm in her hand, the urge hit her hard like a truck.673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnhivGHHpM

“I...Can’t let...It win.” 673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5dilaHwtd

She thought to herself as she looked at the shiny blade, scared of what she might do. She looked down at the floor, trying to think of anything else. It was then she saw her legs. The longer she stared at them, the longer they began to change. She noticed how her calves were starting to seem bigger, how her thighs began to widen.673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0q3iIvee7
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyPnpVHY9t
“No...That’s not right…”673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYrTGTWxTP
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjitWGxHShX
She couldn’t make herself pull away as her legs began to seem smaller or larger. No matter how many times she told herself that it wasn’t real, she couldn’t shake the image out of her head. Her legs even started to feel heavier in some places, but lighter in other places. 673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYi4F89iyL

"It's so weird...It feels so uncomfortable…" 673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59IvM34aEJ
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjcTPbsJot
She took a shaky breath as her eyes began to water, fear and discomfort starting to set in. She was scared, scared of what her mind was doing to her. Scared of what she knew was going to happen. She knew she was going to die. 673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAjJkgXU6j
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIS9wFFiHx
"I...I can't take this feeling anymore!" 673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVFzRSdCHE
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHrZSbwtwA
Melissa found herself on the floor of her home, taking the knife to her calve. She didn't feel the pain that followed, her senses dulled by the growing discomfort of her legs seemingly growing and shrinking. She wasted no time before moving to her other leg, slicing into her other calve, the one that had appeared smaller. 673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rmOcoCnyd
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKO4QDolbZu
"It's...No use…" 673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6F1Voif6k
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBaoG9pEfr
She allowed the knife to fall from her hand, the pain finally setting in as she came back to reality. Melissa let out a painful shriek, laying on her back as blood slowly seeped out of her wounds. As a coldness came over her, she closed her eyes. For the first time in months, she was still. She heard the sounds of the house settling, the sounds of cars passing in the streets but best of all, she heard the quiet. 673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHUrSiyK7K
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRV9TsFGrU
"The sound of silence…Is...Nice…" 673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaK4fVsO51R
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3xCDmYs7A
She thought to herself before she slipped into unconsciousness. Unfortunately, she didn't stay awake long enough to see the neighbor run into the house and scream before calling 911. 673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiB67QEjlRn
673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8xcPRH5XV
This was just the start to Melissa's fight with her mind, however. What she didn't know was that she was in for many more battles with her own mind. But the next time it happened, she wouldn't be alone. 673Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ELYurm496
