“I think it would be better for you.”
-
The masked figure entered the room again. “There’s a safe.” They said in a much higher pitch than would be expected. “We need the key.”
-
“Here, breathe with me. In…out…in…out.” He continued. “It’s going to be ok. You’re safe.”
-
He let her go. “I…I…” he stuttered, unsure of what to do.
-
“This isn’t about what I’m feeling! It’s what I have to do. I can’t feel better. And I know that’s three fingers, I’m not sick.”
-
“Here, try to slow your breathing. Take long, deep breaths.”
-
“I…I wish I wasn’t. Why does it have to be like this? Why do some people get to be free, but not me? Never me.”
-
“That…that’s ok, you don’t have to know. Just…stay here for now, ok? Remember that you are important.”
-
“No, it isn’t.”
-
He pulled her against him, crying with her.
-
“Of course you do. I shouldn’t have bought your kindly act. You’re just like everyone else.”
-
“I’m looking at you, and I see someone who’s struggling. But they’re also strong, that’s why they’re here.” He pulled her head to his chest. “I love you Rex, and I will do whatever I can to help you.”
-
“Them. Do you think I’d do this if I didn’t have to?”
-
“They came back because you are, you can be strong enough to handle them. And I’m here to help you with anything you need.”
-
“We leave. And…never escape.”
-
“No. I’m fine.”
-
Daniel wrapped his arms around her comfortingly. “I…it won’t happen again, I promise. You should never have had to go through that.”
-
“Don’t…just don’t think about it.”
-
“You are, it was just a dream. You won’t be hurt here.”
-
“Everything. Anything that’s worth anything they need. Otherwise…”
-
Daniel sat next to her and grabbed her hand. “He isn’t here. That was a dream. You’re safe with me.” A tear dripped from his cheek.
-
“I…I can’t tell you.”
-
“Yes. It’s me.”
-
Her voice was cool, no sign of the delirium from before. “I’m sorry. I have to do this.” Another person, masked, entered and began searching around, taking anything valuable.
-
“Rex, it’s me. I won’t ever hurt you.”
