"Revive Me With Just One Touch..."
"Now comes the feeling of panic and dread.."
"Velair.."
Mother.
"Velair.."
Mother?
"Velair, where are you hiding?"
Mother, I'm right here!
"Velair,sweetheart.Where are you?"
Mother, Mother! I'm right here! Where are you?
It was pitch black as I reached my hands towards my mothers voice.
Mother!
"Oh Velair, there you are".
I turned around and saw a light shining through a crack in the dark. It framed the outline of a door, I walked towards it.Reaching for the doorknob and taking it into the palm of my hand.
Mother?
I heard her laugh, saw her smile.She looked..just like she used to.Before she went crazy.
There she was, standing right in front of me.Hands on her hips and a huge grin on her face.
"Your brother and father are out today. It's just you and me."
A shiver trailed up my spine at her tone.Something was very wrong.Mother seemed different.
"How about some lunch?", she held out her hand.
I nodded and placed my hand in hers.It was doll-sized in comparison.
We walked down the hall and made a sharp turn into the kitchen. I couldn't help notice how all the curtains were closed and the only light was the sunshine trying to breakthrough the thick material.
Mother, I can't see.
"Sit down sweetie, I'll have your sandwich ready for you in a quick second".
Her words usually calmed me down but today all they were doing was raising the hairs on the back of my neck.
Mother walked towards me with a sandwich in one hand and a butcher knife in the other, I couldn't help the whimper that escaped my lips.
Mother cracked a smile, "I know how much you love your sandwiches cut into triangles."
Mother, you're scaring me.
"Oh honey, you look so pale. Is something frightening you?", she slammed the knife down onto the thin slices of bread.
Yes mother, it's..you.
I watched hercarefully as she turned her back to me, placing the knife down on the counter and opening the refrigerator.
When she turned back towards me, there was a sick grin on her face and a glass of grape juice in her hand.
"Whatever it is, it won't be bothering you for long", she 'tripped' and spilled the juice all over my light pink dress,"Oh now look what I've done".
I didn't have the chance to gasp before mother grabbed my hand and dragged me back down the hall, towards the bathroom.
"Looks like we're going to have to get you all nice and clean".
She pulled us both down on our knees and turned the knob to let the water fill the tub,I reached my hand behind my back to pull the dress over my head.
Mother slapped at my hand, "No, no.No need for that".
M-Mother, what's going on?
She lifted me up and into the tub, "Now you stay put, I have to go check on something. Don't move darling".
I watched her walk out the door, making eye contact with me as she stepped out. I didn't dare move and carefully ran my hands along the water.
Mother was..she was behaving..not like mother.
The click of the lock shook me out of my thoughts.
Mother had stepped into the bathroom and she had locked the door.
M-Mother?
"You're just about done here sweetheart".
Mothers tone was sour, there was no trace of the smile that once played out on her face. I finally got a good look at her. Bags hung from under her eyes,her eyes were bloodshot, her lips cracked. This wasn't my mother.
She stepped closer to me and placed her hands around my neck, "We were just fine until you came along".
She started squeezing my neck,my eyes almost shooting out of my head.My cheeks flushed as I felt her nails dig into my flesh.
"You are nothing but a disappointment!".
I started fighting her. My arms flailed and my legs kicked, I tried desperately to hit her anywhere and make her let go. She dodged my ever move and continued squeezing my throat shut.Cries of pain shot all through my body but never escaped my lips.
"You pathetic little bitch!", she hissed at me.
I felt my movements slow, my lungs were going to explode if I didn't get oxygen in them soon.My legs were the first to go and before I got a chance to swing my arms..
..I was submerged in water.
I woke up with a start.
The sweat trickling down my forehead.
"Holy..mother..fuck".
Mother.
"Velair.."
Mother?
"Velair, where are you hiding?"
Mother, I'm right here!
"Velair,sweetheart.Where are you?"
Mother, Mother! I'm right here! Where are you?
