I woke up and cursed myself for falling asleep in the back of a cab, but I felt so free and safe for the first time in weeks. It says a lot about my life that I felt safe in the company of a stranger, but I felt so bad in the company of people I knew. I opened my eyes and saw that I was back in my room. Had it all been a dream? It couldn’t be a dream, there is no way I could dream up the things William had said to me. I threw the blanket of me and saw that I was still wearing all my layers of clothes. It wasn’t a dream. They had somehow managed to catch me. I thought I had finally gotten away. I should have stayed awake. Maybe if I was awake I could have gotten away. I went into my bathroom and took of all the layers of clothes until I was just left with one pair of legging and a tank top.
