There I stood, watching her stare into the mirror. That's when she suddenly began to speak; I was noticed. "Each of these scars come with memories. I know exactly how I got each one, some were from small accidents. Like this one on my hand, I was washing the dishes when the knife slipped. Some are from happier moments, this one on my right knee comes from having a blast playing with friends when I was little and on the playground. Then...then there are these the one on my neck, back and the one everyone stares at on my face...they were given to me by horrible people. Those are the worst, because of those staying as a constant reminder of those memories that I've tried for years to forget is the cause of all of the other scars you see on my body. You understand why I do what I do now?" That's when I noticed the tears flowing down her face. Shocked and afraid all I could say was "I'm so sorry, but that doesn't mean it's ok to go around kidnapping and killing other men just because of that!" As she wipes her tears away she retorts with a calm and stern voice. "Maybe, but that is how I get around my pain. It's also why I became a psychiatrist to help others, even men, with their trauma." I couldn't contain my anger seeing her so calm and ok with murder so I had to yell, I just should've thought my words through. "You're a fucking PSYCHIATRIST?! You aren't helping people you're culling the public AND drugging the minds of those who ACTUALLY need help. Pills only hide the problem they don't fix it, those people and you need more than that, you need to deal with the pain and move on and KILLING IS NOT THE WAY!" Surprised by his outburst Carol decides to reprimand him "You think I didn't know you weren't bound? I like you, so I decided to give you a bit of freedom and THIS is how you repay me? Don't you worry, you still can't escape and you are too weak to try and fight me in my own home." She then begins to walk to me with such a scary look. Deep down, I know she is right too. "You also act as if you are certified to be a psychiatrist, you understand that these pills help thousands of people everyday, whether it suppresses what they feel and allows them to focus their life, or help fix a chemical imbalance in their brains. On top of that, the amount of people that would rather run and hide is MUCH larger than those who want to face their problems head on." That's when I felt something warm coming from my abdomen...I never noticed the knife. She immediately covers my face with the rag she always keeps on her. Fuck it's chloro- "Goodnight sweetie, I'll make sure to stitch you up nice so you'll be fine when you wake up. Not like you can hear me right now anyway."
