This is New....A Story by Alex ClaytonI've been stuck- stuck in that Hell of a place- for years. Now that am free, I don't know how to react.
He didn't tell me he was taking me. I asked to go back. Why did I want to go back? I hated there.
He's the first person to show me kindness in the past five years. It feels wrong. I don't deserve this. He let me stay at his house. I guess he figured I have no place to go. I doubt my wife would let me come home, anyway. His house is... Really nice. Who is this man? Why is he letting me stay here? He said I could sleep on his, rather large couch. I'm not allowed to sleep on such a nice couch. He gave me new clothes, took me to get medical help, and even gave me REAL food. Why is he taking care of me? I did nothing to earn this. I keep having night terrors. All of them are about HIM. I wake up in a panic. HE's coming back for me; HE'll find me; HE'll punish me. The kind man who found me tries to calm me down. He told me he'd protect me. He even stays up with me when I can't sleep. He's... Nice. Why is he so nice to me? It's a strange feeling. He asked me why I never speak. I'm not allowed to speak without given permission. He told me I'm allowed to speak whenever I like; that I'm allowed to have an opinion. It might take some getting used to. I don't understand why he cares for me. I ran tests on him. I tortured him and hurt him. He has a reputation for being emotionless and murderous. I don't see that. All I see is that he tries hard to care for me and I don't know why. I don't like being without him. He makes me feel safe. I deserve to feel safe again. © 2017 Alex ClaytonAuthor's Note
