That night I had a very strange dream. I was wearing that dress that William had painted me in. I lived in a castle, somewhere in the highlands. I was the only one that lived there, though. I was a princess of nothing. There weren’t people in the world to rule. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAkPO7eAU3RB
In my dream, I was walking around the forest, just a little bit away from the castle. Suddenly, I got lost, and couldn’t find the castle. I came across a pond and looked in it. I saw my family by my side: my mom, my dad, Kevin, and Rango my dog. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAlHKVZyRale
I turned around and they were there. Dad told me, “I love your dress Tavi. You shine brighter than the sun.” 540Please respect copyright.PENANAghCFxx1jqG
“What a beautiful daughter,” Mom said. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAx8dKEkUf44
I tried to hug them, but they disappeared when I touched him. I took a step back. I tried to grab Kevin, but he disappeared too. Rango and Rango were out of sight. It started to get foggy. I couldn’t find my way anywhere. I suddenly tried to run. I didn’t know why, but I just wanted to run as hard. I was tearing my dress up, but that was okay, I just needed to get far away. I wasn’t sure where too, but I was wired. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAoVujH7j62k
Then I tripped on a root. There was no pain. When I looked up and I saw the doe. We stared at each other for the longest time. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAdWMGLXBbgq
“I’ve seen you before,” I told her. I noticed she was swollen. She was carrying a baby. She allowed me to touch her stomach. Her stomach kicked me and I smiled at the way it felt. It felt so innocent. But an arrow spun out of nowhere and hit her in the stomach. She made a yelping sound and fell over. I looked over quickly and saw the man that killed her. 540Please respect copyright.PENANA9st3rlWtLH
William came out of the bushes with a bow and arrow. 540Please respect copyright.PENANA9nBIohFiNr
“She was carrying a child!” I screamed. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAw3wx89STPg
He raised his bow, “There are too many of them in the world. It’s population control. If we eat them, we can end world hunger,” he said. Before I could ask what he was talking about, he let go of the bow and it spun into my heart.540Please respect copyright.PENANAgqbpIT2Zx9
That’s when I woke up. It was four in the morning. I got up and slowly opened the door. I went out to the hallway to use the bathroom, but I ended up sneaking into William’s room.540Please respect copyright.PENANAOArYjfDZS6
He was asleep on his huge bed. He would talk in his sleep, only saying, “Emily.” 540Please respect copyright.PENANAHc8CXOj7gC
I wasn’t sure that was, but I didn’t care. I looked at him, wanting to kill him. His expression was happy, smiling almost, and I wanted him dead. He deserved it. “I hate you,” I whispered before leaving his side. I went to the living room and tried to open the door. It was locked.540Please respect copyright.PENANAmNpy9eqDIO
What would it have been liked if I just walked out those doors? Would I have lived? I knew the odds were against me. 540Please respect copyright.PENANAFCMkGVGIlt
